Cromwell The meeting of two water ways at Cromwell, the Kawarau and Clutha Rivers,
although the Clutha comes though Lake Dunstan.
Extra Information Cromwell is located in the valley of the Upper Clutha, deep in the heart of
the dry interior of Central Otago . . . in a landscape of bare brown hills,
of tussock and briar, of purple thyme and tors of schist, of broad basins
and fertile valleys, of Lake Dunstan's pristine waters and of gorges carved
by two great rivers . . . a landscape first trodden by the Maori hunter and
trader, opened to European settlement by the sheepmen, exploited and
transformed by the gold seekers and later by the dam builders . . . and now
home to the merino and deer farmer, to orchards and vineyards, to artists
and artisans and to those, tempted by the landscape and history, climate
and location and the myriad of pursuits offered on land and water, to visit
this "timeless land." Your Available Options |
