Lake Manapouri is situated within the Fiordland National Park and the wider region of Te Wahipounamu South West New Zealand World Heritage Area. It's the second deepest lake in New Zealand and surrounded by the Kepler Mountains, Turret Range and Hunter Mountains. The lake provides hydro-electric power via Manapouri Hydroelectric Power Station which discharges water through two 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) tailrace tunnels to Doubtful Sound and the Tasman Sea.
