The headwaters are southeast of the main range of the Southern Alps near the mountain Eyetooth, with the smaller Blue River North Branch and South Branch joining the main Blue River later.
Shortly before flowing into the Makarora River, the river passes through a narrow gorge.
At its confluence with the Makarora River, the aptly named Blue Pools are the destination of a popular short walk from State Highway 6, with a bridge crossing the Blue River and providing good views upstream into the gorge and downstream over the river flowing into Makarora River.

The river's watershed lies almost entirely within the Willamette National Forest, dominated by western hemlock and Douglas- fir.
Blue River was named for the striking blue color that apparently comes from its rocky bed.
Loisach
The Loisach is a river that flows through Tyrol, Austria and Bavaria, Germany.
It s name might be Celtic in origin, from Proto- Celtic"* lawo" and"* iskā", both of which mean" water".
But the suffix"- ach" is germanic or pre-germanic.
Another possibility would be that" Lois" might be cognate with basque" lohi( tz) mud, swamp"( cf. Saint- Jean- de- Luz, in basque Donibane- Lohitzune).
The Loisach goes through the great swamp Murnauer Moos.
So that the question is not resolved.
The Loisach is a 113 km long left tributary to the Isar.
The source of the Loisach is near Ehrwald in Austria.
The Loisach flows past Garmisch- Partenkirchen and into the Kochelsee.
At the Kochelsee the water that was diverted from the upper river Isar for power generation at the Walcheseekraftwerk joins the Loisach.
The Loisach then flows out of Kochelsee and joins the Isar at Wolfratshausen.
A canal joins the Isar and the Loisach returning the water diverted for power generation to the Isar before Wolfratshausen to reduce the risk of flooding in the town.

It joins the Big Blue River at Blue Rapids, Kansas.
The waters of Little Blue River, once noted for the namesake blueish tint, were later muddied by silt runoff from plowing.
Various other rivers also have the name" Little Blue River".
