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.

Lake Cyohoha is ten miles West of the larger Lake Rweru, the second lake on the Rwanda - Burundi border.It is a narrow yet very long lake with many branches. It is largely bisected by the border between Rwanda and Burundi, however, its southern portion extends entirely into Burundi.

Lake Cohoha is fed by the Rugamura Marsh, which in turn is fed by the Gatunguru River, the Runyoni River and the Nduruma River.The Nduruma River is fed by the Matonnyanga to the north of Mukerwas colline, by the Runyuiya to the south of Rwimbogo colline and by the Gasuga, which forms between the Kabirizi and Butihinda collines.
Lake Cyohoha South just as its cousin Cyohoha North empties into the Akanyaru River via a series of marshlands that connect these lakes to the river.[1]
