Given that the Clutha River has the largest flow of any NZ river, it is not surprising that this has also caused some of the largest floods.

There were several devastating floods in the last quarter of the 1800s, but even today, Lakes Wakatipu and Wanaka rise sufficiently to inundate the business districts of those towns.
