About This File
Lake Ellesmere is located in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand. It is a broad, shallow lake located directly to the west of Banks Peninsula, separated from the Pacific Ocean by a long narrow strip of land called Kaitorete Spit.
The lake covers an area of 180 km² (70 mi²), and is the largest lake in the alluvial fan of the Canterbury Plains. The ecosystem of Lake Ellesmere is severely threatened as a result of human activity on the Canterbury plains.
Welcome to my return into map making! This is Lake Ellesmere, my latest NZ map. It's 30km by 25km and is perfect for big city building. Enjoy!
