About this Lake Wanaka map poster
Lake Wanaka lies in the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. This large glacial lake stretches some 45 kilometres from the mountains in the north to the town of Wanaka in the south. On a map it is long and irregular, with a broad southern basin, several bays and islands, and a narrower arm reaching up toward the valleys of the Southern Alps.
The Clutha River, one of the largest rivers in New Zealand by volume, flows out of the lake at its southern end. To the east, Lake Hāwea runs parallel to Lake Wanaka, separated from it by a narrow strip of land known as The Neck. Mount Aspiring National Park lies beyond the lake's northern reaches.
Mou Waho, an island in the lake, holds a small lake of its own. Near the town, a lone willow growing in the water has become one of the most photographed trees in the country. A Lake Wanaka map poster sets the town's compact streets against the vast outline of the lake and the mountains that frame it.

Wanaka town
At the southern end of the lake, the town's streets gather around the waterfront of Roys Bay, a compact pattern set against the open water.
Lake islands
Several islands sit in the lake, including Mou Waho with its own small lake, adding scattered shapes to the broad expanse of water.
