Kokiri is a settlement with a railway station on the Arnold River in the west of New Zealand's South Island.

It is also five miles from Stillwater Junction, and its railway station stands at an altitude of 79 feet (24 m) above sea level.

The settlement is on the western bank of the Arnold river, in the Maori Creek riding of the Grey County.

[1] Kokiri became at the beginning of the 20th century one of the principal seats of the sawmilling industry, and many thousands of feet of timber and white pine sleepers were sent annually to Greymouth for export.

[1] In 1906 there was a railway flag station at the township, a post and telephone office, a State school and an hotel.
