Lake Cyohoha South or Cyohoha Sud as it is known in Rwanda or Lake Cohoha in Burundi is a small lake in East Africa. It straddles the border between Burundi and Rwanda. In Rwanda, it is known as Cyohoha South to differentiate it from the nearby much smaller Cyohoha North 10 miles North into Rwanda. In Burundi, it is simply known as Cohoha. It is a narrow yet very long lake with many branches. It is 32 km in length, and has an average of 1 km in width. It is largely bisected by the border between Rwanda and Burundi, however, its southern portion extends entirely into Burundi. The lake is 74 km², of which 19 km² are in Rwanda and 55 km² belong to Burundi. ()
