About Canterbury
Canterbury is a South Island region of wide plains, braided rivers and alpine lakes, rising to the Southern Alps and New Zealand's highest mountain.
The Canterbury Plains, a patchwork of wheat, sheep and dairy farms, run from the Pacific coast to the foothills of the Southern Alps, crossed by wide, gravelly rivers such as the Waimakariri and Rakaia. Christchurch, the main city, lies on the coast, and Banks Peninsula, the eroded remains of two volcanoes, juts into the sea to its south-east.
