Paddling near Brasília, Distrito Federal


Brasília sits on the central plateau of the Distrito Federal, and its paddling scene revolves around Lago Paranoá, the large artificial lake that curves through the city.

Rowing clubs and water-sports centres on the lake's shores make it the most accessible flatwater destination in the capital.
