The Grantham River is a river in the Canterbury region of New Zealand. It arises in the Hanmer Range near Mount Miromiro, in the Hanmer Forest Park, and flows south-east into the Waiau Uwha River, which has its mouth on the Pacific Ocean.[1]
A thermal spring on the river is undeveloped.[2]
The Grantham River forms part of the Waiau Uwha catchment in North Canterbury.[3] It flows through predominantly natural hill country typical of the region’s braided river systems.
