Corumbá Lake, body of water
Corumbá Lake is a reservoir in Goiás created by damming the Corumbá River to generate hydroelectric power. The water body covers a substantial area and is surrounded by open green spaces with grassy patches and scattered trees along its shoreline.
The reservoir was created through dam construction on the Corumbá River as part of Brazil's hydroelectric development. The facility now supplies electricity to the region while providing water for communities and agricultural needs in the surrounding areas.
The lake sits near the town of Luziânia with accessible green areas and a pier for relaxation and photos. Visitors should bring sunscreen, hats, comfortable shoes, and pay attention to signage marking safe swimming zones.
The lake encompasses a large preservation zone covering over 9,000 hectares that protects plants and wildlife. This protected area allows visitors to observe a variety of bird species and other animals in their natural habitat.
