“NZ's Premier Rainforest Lake... One of the fastest growing tourism destinations on the West Coast!”
Lake Brunner is the largest lake in the northwestern South Island of New Zealand, covering an area of 40 km². The lake's outflow is the Arnold River, a tributary of the Grey River. The lake lies 31 kilometres to the southeast of Greymouth. The main settlement close to the lake is Moana, on the northern shore.
World class fishing both river and lake all year around, water activities – kayaking, swimming, boating, clear unpolluted night skies for star gazing, seven NZ Department of Conservation walks nearby, glow worm grottos accessible from the village, and much, much more!
Lake Brunner was named by John Rochfort for the 19th century explorer Thomas Brunner. The Māori name for the lake, Kotuku Moana, means "Sea of Herons".
