Cumbaza River, Brook in Province of Lamas, Peru.

The Cumbaza River flows from the Cordillera Escalera conservation area at 1,800 meters above sea level through the San Martin region of Peru.

A major flood in 1910 forced the residents of San Roque to relocate their settlement from the original riverside location to higher ground.

The river plays a central role in local festivals, with communities gathering along its banks during the annual patron saint celebrations from July to August.

The river maintains an average flow rate of 1.8 cubic meters per second and covers a basin area of 571.2 square kilometers.

The Cumbaza River feeds into the Ricuricocha lagoon, creating a water mirror surface of 24,405 square meters within its hydrographic network.
