Mount Grey (officially Mount Grey / Maukatere) is a 934-metre (3,065 ft) mountain 15 kilometres (9.3 miles) west of Amberley in New Zealand.

[3] It is named after Sir George Grey who was governor of New Zealand when English surveyors climbed it in 1849.

[4] In Te Reo Māori, the mountain is called Maukatere, 'floating mountain', from where the spirits of the dead leave on the long journey to Cape Reinga.

[5] Maukatere marked the inland boundary of the Crown purchase of the Canterbury and Otago area recorded in "Kemp's Deed" in 1848.

[6] In 1998, the Ngāi Tahu Claims Settlement Act 1998 changed the official name of the mountain to Mount Grey / Maukatere.
