The Cromwell Gorge is a deep gorge on the Clutha River in the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. It stretches for 20 km south of the town of Cromwell towards Alexandra. It is one of three substantial river gorges in Central Otago, the others being the Kawarau Gorge to the west of Cromwell, and the Roxburgh Gorge downstream from Alexandra. The Dunstan Trail, a major new cycle route, was opened on the river's right bank in 2021.

| - Die Cromwell Gorge ist eine tiefe Schlucht des Clutha River/Mata-Au in der Region Otago auf der Südinsel von Neuseeland. Sie verläuft in südlicher Richtung von der Stadt Cromwell über 20 km nach Alexandra. Früher wurden im Gebiet der Schlucht Steinfrüchte angebaut. Die Schlucht war eine wichtige Attraktion in den Anfängen der Entwicklung des neuseeländischen Tourismus. Der größte Teil der Schlucht versank jedoch in den 1990er Jahren im Rahmen der Politik des „Think Big“ im Lake Dunstan, der hinter dem Clyde Dam aufgestaut wurde. Dies führte zur Einstellung der Otago Central Railway hinter Clyde und der Verlegung des State Highway 8 an das Ostufer der Schlucht. (de)
- The Cromwell Gorge is a deep gorge on the Clutha River in the Otago region of New Zealand's South Island. It stretches for 20 km south of the town of Cromwell towards Alexandra. It is one of three substantial river gorges in Central Otago, the others being the Kawarau Gorge to the west of Cromwell, and the Roxburgh Gorge downstream from Alexandra. Long associated with the production of stone fruit, the gorge — and also part of Cromwell — was substantially drowned in the 1990s by the creation of Lake Dunstan behind the hydroelectric Clyde Dam. The Otago Central Railway which used to run to Cromwell was stopped at Clyde and State Highway 8 was re-routed above the new lake. The Dunstan Trail, a major new cycle route, was opened on the river's right bank in 2021. (en)
