Lake Saracocha (possibly from Quechuasaramaize, qucha lake, lagoon)[2] is a lake in the Cabanillas District, Puno Region, southeastern Peru. Lake Saracocha is located just southeast of Lake Lagunillas. These two Andean highland lakes are part of the system drained by the Coata River, which flows in a generally easterly direction until entering westernmost Lake Titicaca, about 50 km (30 mi) from Lake Saracocha as the crow flies.[3][4]
