Anatoki River
The Anatoki River is a river of New Zealand. It is located in the Tasman Region, and is a tributary of the Tākaka River and is one of the country's steepest rivers. The river's name means cave of stone adzes. The river drains a catchment area of 101 km (39 sq mi) that is surrounded by the Haupiri, Douglas, Snowdon, Devil and Anatoki Ranges. Rainfall records in the catchment taken at an elevation of 1,300 m (4,300 ft) show that the 10 year return period storm brings 291 mm (11.5 in) of precipitation in 24 hours.
Anatoki Salmon, a salmon farm and restaurant business, is located adjacent to the Anatoki River.
