Terra Bianca Reservoir, Water reservoir near San Juan de los Morros, Venezuela

The Terra Bianca Reservoir extends across the Venezuelan plains, featuring a dam structure rising 43 meters high with a crown length of 230 meters.

The reservoir was constructed during the mid-20th century to address water scarcity issues in Guárico's capital, initially designed to supply 300 liters per second for 40,000 residents.

The reservoir functions as a Núcleo de Desarrollo Endógeno, where over 100 local participants develop tourism services and infrastructure improvement projects.

Visitors can access the reservoir through main roads connecting to San Juan de los Morros, with optimal conditions for activities during the dry season.

The water system relies on transfers from the Guárico River and natural rock depression on the left abutment, as its own basin provides minimal contributions.

Location: Guárico
