Ruamahanga RiverThe Ruamahanga River runs through the southeastern North Island of New Zealand. The river's headwaters are in the Tararua Ranges northwest of Masterton. From there it runs firstly south and then southwest for 130 kilometres before emptying into the Cook Strait. The town of Masterton is close to the banks of the river. In its lower reaches, the river meanders across a large floodplain, culminating in the wetlands around the edges of Lake Wairarapa. The river flows into the lake to the southeast, before re-emerging from the lake in the south to empty into Palliser Bay ten kilometres further south.
