The Hollyford River is located in the southwest of the South Island of New Zealand. It runs for eighty miles in Fiordland, its source being ten kilometres to the north of the northern tip of Lake Te Anau and close to the Homer Tunnel.
The river flows north through the glacier-formed Hollyford Valley, passing through Lake McKerrow before reaching Martins Bay on the coast of the Tasman Sea 25 kilometres north of Milford Sound. One of the country's best known tramping tracks, the Hollyford Track, follows the river's course.
Part of the river's course is traditionally regarded as the boundary between the Southland and Otago regions.
