A tributary of the Manawatu River, it flows generally southwestward from its source in the Ruahine Range, passing along the eastern edge of Feilding, and joining the Manawatu River between Palmerston North and Shannon.It is fed by local streams & rivers such as the Makino River, which starts in the NW of the district and follows a meandering course through farmland, and then bisects the town of Feilding from the NW to the SW. The Makino was a major cause in flooding of the town centre in 2004. The Oroua has also been the cause of considerable flooding locally over the years due in part to the flat nature of the terrain, especially where it converges with the Manawatu River. {{coord|40|26|S|175|26|E|display=title|region:NZ_type:river_source:GNS-enwiki}}{{Commons category|Oroua River}}{{ManawatuWanganui-river-stub}} 1 : Rivers of Manawatu-Wanganui |
