It is a small body of water, next to a stream of runoff water originating from Serra de Santa Bárbara, which feeds it. It is surrounded by large areas of cryptomeria forests planted by forest services. Behind this lagoon there is a natural area of rainfall accumulations consisting of a large and flat peat bog.
