New Zealand's largest Manganui River is a river
of the Northland Region of New Zealand's North Island. It
follows a generally westward course from its sources west of Ruakaka before its outflow into
the Wairoa River five kilometres
east of Dargaville.
The river's lower course is noted for its convoluted, winding path
through low-lying swampy terrain, and several oxbow lakes are associated with this stretch
of the river.
