Murchison sits where four rivers meet on the Buller, a farming and outdoor-adventure town between Nelson and the West Coast known as the gateway to the Buller Gorge. On 17 June 1929 a magnitude 7.3 earthquake on the White Creek Fault tore through the district, triggering huge landslides that killed seventeen people and reshaped the rivers, creating the Maruia Falls in the process. That dramatic geology now draws whitewater kayakers, jet boaters and rafters, while the Murchison Museum tells the quake story.
