Lake Alabaster / Wāwāhi Waka , also known by the Māori name of Waiwahuika , lies at the northern end of Fiordland , in the southwest of New Zealand's South Island .[1] The lake runs from northeast to southwest, is five kilometres (3.1 mi ), and covers seven km 2 (2.7 sq mi ).[2]
Lake Alabaster drains, and is drained by, the Pyke River , a small tributary of the Hollyford River / Whakatipu Kā Tuka .[3] It is one of two lakes (along with Lake McKerrow / Whakatipu Waitai ) found in the lower reaches of the Hollyford River system.[4] A branch of the Hollyford Track , one of New Zealand's most well-known and popular tramping tracks, extends along the eastern shore of the lake.[1]
The lake was formed at the southern end of a glacial valley and, had the sea level been slightly higher, would have been the northern arm of what might have been McKerrow Fiord.[citation needed ]
