At 22 km², it is second only to Lake Brunner in size among the West Coast's lakes. Mount Graham is on the west coast of the lake.
A small hydroelectric station is located on the Kaniere River, close to the lake's outflow.
Lake Kaniere is a popular location for leisure activities such as boating, fishing, picnicking, and water skiing.[1]
