All Valleys of Oceania

This group collects the Valleys subcategory's members located in Oceania, principally valleys of New Zealand's Southern Alps and volcanic valleys of the Hawaiian and French Polynesian islands such as Iao Valley, Waipio Valley and Honopu Valley on Kauai. These steep, often coastal valleys carved by streams on young volcanic terrain are geologically distinct from the glacially carved and tectonic valleys that dominate this subcategory's larger continent groups.
