The rural centre of Waimate sits between Timaru
and Oamaru. For centuries the area was a seasonal
hunting camp for Maori. When European settlers
arrived, Waimate became a saw-milling town. These
days it is a farming centre; berry growing and
bulb propagation are other local pursuits. The
majority of the town’s original Edwardian
buildings are still standing. If you approach
Waimate from the north, you’ll notice a
white horse shape near the top of the hills behind
the town. The White Horse was made as a tribute
to the Clydesdale horses that were used to break
the land into pasture. Waimate is also memorable
for its population of wild wallabies. Functional
facts: Approx. population 7000, information centre,
wide range of shops and services.
