Mount Hutt (Māori: Ōpuke) rises to the west of the Canterbury Plains in the South Island of New Zealand, above the braided upper reaches of the Rakaia River,[1] and 80 kilometres west of Christchurch. Its summit is 2190 metres above sea level.
The New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage gives a translation of "place of the hill" for Ōpuke.[2]
