Lake Mugesera
Lake Mugesera is a lake in the Eastern Province, Rwanda. The lake is in the Central Plateau, southeast of Kigali. {{#invoke:Footnotes|sfn}} The lake is part of a complex of lakes and wetlands in a flat valley running in a SSE direction, 35 kilometres wide. The Nyawarungu River meanders southward through the valley, flooding it to create a zone of permanent swamps and lakes. Lake Mugesera lies on the east bank of the river, and is the largest lake in the complex.
