Mohaka River

Mohaka River

The Mohaka River is a river in the northern Hawke's Bay region of the eastern North Island of New Zealand. It flows east-southeast for 70 kilometres from the Ahimanawa Range, before flowing into Hawke Bay close to the settlement of Mohaka, 20 kilometres southwest of Wairoa.

New Zealand's highest railway bridge, the trestle-constructed Mohaka Viaduct on the Palmerston North - Gisborne Line crosses the Mohaka River close to the small settlement of Raupunga.
