This canal is part of the Upper Waitaki power scheme, which links
about four lakes along the Waitaki River in the central South
Island.  This one runs between Lake Tekapo and Lake Pukaki, the first
and second lakes in the system.  The scheme is one of the largest
engineering projects ever undertaken in this country.  A recent
attempt to expand it was canned due to a number of issues (some
political, some technical, some geological).

The power company owns the road that runs next to this canal, and
allows public access.  It's a longer drive than the publically-owned
road, but is more scenic.  Further along the canal there is the Mount
Cook Salmon Farm, which is apparently the worlds highest.  If your
wallet is weighing you down, you can take a scenic helicopter tour
from there.
