Ihungia River
The Ihungia River is a short but characterful waterway in the Gisborne Region of New Zealand's East Coast, flowing north through rugged hill country to join the Mata River as part of the greater Waiapu River system—the spiritual heart of Ngāti Porou territory. Fed by a network of small streams and crossed by a single road bridge, the Ihungia is a working landscape of steep pasture and native bush remnants rather than a developed tourist site, offering visitors a glimpse of the quiet, rain-fed waterways that define the East Coast's interior.
