Interesting facts about this location
Oaro River
The Oaro River is a river of the north Canterbury Region of New Zealand's South Island. It flows south from its sources in the Hundalee Hills, turning east shortly before reaching the coast at Oaro, 15 kilometres southwest of Kaikoura.

Hundalee Hills
The Hundalee Hills are located close to the borders of Hurunui District and Kaikoura District in Canterbury in the South Island of New Zealand. Located 40 kilometres (24.85 mi) to the south of Kaikoura, Hundalee Hills are known largely for a notorious stretch of State Highway 1 between Kaikoura and Christchurch. The road winds sharply around the edge of several hills, as does the Conway River, which reaches the Pacific Ocean close to the Hundalees.

Hundalee
Hundalee is a rural locality in the Hurunui District of the Canterbury region of New Zealand's South Island. It straddles the Conway River, the traditional boundary between Canterbury and Marlborough and is in the Hundalee Hills. Although once a railway terminus, Hundalee today does not have a defined township as such; the place name refers to the rural properties in the area. One of these properties became the home of World War II hero Charles Upham after he returned from combat.
