Lake Homs

Lake Homs is a lake near Homs, Syria, fed by the Orontes River. The lake is located 15 km from the city of Homs, extends over 60 km, and is known for a large fish population. One main canal, 60 kilometers long, supplies the whole city of Homs with drinking water, and a whole network of secondary channels provide for the irrigation of some 20,000 hectares. The banks of the lake are steep in places and rather inaccessible; there is no road right the way round.

Located at 34.6434, 36.5728 (Lat. / Lng.), about 2 miles away.
