Kurow is a small town in the Waitaki District, New Zealand. It is located on the south bank of the Waitaki River, 60 kilometres (37mi) northwest of Oamaru. At the 2013 Census, the town had a population of 312 people.
Description
The name is an Anglicised form of the name of the nearby mountain Te Kohurau.
In the 1920s the town was the base for the building of the nearby Waitaki Dam and forming Lake Waitaki in the first of a series of hydroelectric projects on the Waitaki River.
The first social security scheme for New Zealand workers was designed in the town, arising from Presbyterian Minister of Kurow Arnold Nordmeyer's experience of working with families of workers on the Waitaki hydro-electric project.
The land around the town includes summerfruit orchards, and increasing amounts of Pinot noir are being planted in the limestone soils.
The town was the terminus of the Kurow Branch railway, opened in 1881 to Hakataramea, across the Waitaki River, but cut back to Kurow in 1930. It closed in 1983: the line can be traced on the ground, and the station still building stands on Liverpool St. From 1928 until 1937, a line owned by the Public Works Department ran from Kurow to the hydroelectric project 6.4km to the west.
Dropping by this small town that is centrally located in the middle of the Waitaki Valley in the South Island New Zealand. It is also well-known and popular for its wine. There are beautiful wetlands to explore and a Braided River Jetboat trip. I took some footage using my drone old DJI Mavic Air to capture this beautiful land that you can relax and refresh your day in here. I love the place and the rest somewhere down South Island.

Vile forms of Necros lie rotting my mind Feasting like maggots - maggots in flesh So left your ruined cortex behind Now the maggot knows glee as it nibbles on your spine! [Chorus:] Maggots! Maggots! Maggots are falling like rain! Putrid pus-pools vomit blubonic plague The bowels of the beast reek of puke How to describe such vileness on the page World maggot waits for the end of the age! [Chorus] Beneath a sky of maggots I walked Until those maggots began to fall I gaped at God to receive my gift Bathed in maggots till the planet shit [Repeat chorus a lot]
