Taieri Gorge

The Taieri Gorge is located on the Taieri River, in the South Island of New Zealand.It is a deep canyon carved by the Taieri River on the middle stage of its journey from Central Otago to the Pacific Ocean, between the high plateau of the Maniototo and the coastal Taieri Plains.

The Taieri Gorge Railway runs alongside (and considerably above) the river through the gorge.
