One flows north from its origins in hills to the east of Whangārei reaching the Waitangi River to form the Horahora River, which runs into Ngunguru Bay.[1]

Another Taheke River starts at the confluence of the Punakitere and Ōtaua Rivers, near Taheke, and flows about 8 km (5.0 mi) to become the Waimā River, which runs into Hokianga Harbour.[2]
