Vincent Community

The landscape around Vincent Community is dry, open Central Otago country, which has shaped both scattered settlement and pastoral farming. This small locality sits in the wider catchment of the Manuherikia River, amid broad basins and hills characteristic of Otago’s interior. Gold discoveries transformed Central Otago in the 1860s, and the nearby former mining settlement of Matakanui recalls that brief period of rapid growth. Today, working farms and long rural roads define this inland part of New Zealand’s South Island. Follow nearby webcams to discover other corners of Central Otago.
