Rio Ivirizu is a right tributary of the Río San Mateo , which flows into the Río Chapare , a tributary of the Río Ichilo in Bolivia .

course

The Rio Ivirizu flows in its entire length through the province of Carrasco and the province of Tiraque in the department of Cochabamba and flows into the Río San Mateo on the border with the province of Chapare . The river has its origin on the southern edge of the Cumbres La Apacheta at the confluence of the Río Fuerte and Río Lopez Mendoza . It crosses the Cumbres La Apacheta for the first 25 kilometers to the north, then reaches the southern edge of the Serranía del Imajana mountain range and flows further north.

The river then swings to the northwest and crosses the border from Municipio Totora in the province of Carrasco to Municipio Tiraque in the province of the same name. For the next 35 kilometers, it essentially maintains the northwest direction along the Serranía del Imajana. After about 77 kilometers the river swings again in a northerly direction and joins the Río San Mateo after a total of 87 kilometers.
