Looks like the geothermal thingy near Broadlands - I made a basic grass strip for the former airfield, and the long loop in the river lines you up nicely for it.

Yes, it's Ohaaki Geothermal Power Station, which is a one-of-a-kind in NZ, with the 105m natural draft cooling tower. Yes, you could hide a little nuclear power station in there, and nobody would know...
