Lake Waahi

About

Lake Waahi (or up to 1913 sometimes called Lake Waihi) is located immediately to the west of Huntly, in the Waikato Region. Lake Waahi is a riverine lake, which links to the Waikato River by way of the short Waahi Stream. The smaller Lake Puketirini lies immediately to Waahi's southeast. The lake has a maximum depth of five metres and the open water covers approximately 522 hectares, though the lake extends further through marsh and fenland. The lake is situated within predominantly pastoral land.
