This New Zealand lake has been described as “one of the most beautiful in the world, a star-shaped sheet of water, 800ft. deep, stretching its blue arms far into the wooded hills.” In terms of usefulness, Waikare-moana is expected to supply power next year to relieve the overload conditions at Mangahao.
