4. ORIGIN
The word lumot translates to “moss” in English.
There isn’t any moss in the lake of course. The
name applies to the deep-green color of the lake.

5. ORIGIN
The lake was created when Lumot Dam, an embankment
dam, was constructed damming the Lumot River, creating
an auxiliary water reservoir for Lake Caliraya as part of
the Kalayaan Pumped-Storage Hydroelectric Plant.

6. Lumot Lake, also known as Sierra Lake, is a man-
made water reservoir located in the towns of
and Lumban of Laguna province, in the Sierra
Mountains of the Philippines.
Lumot Lake is an Impounding Reservoir because it
confines untreated water.

The water in Lumot Lake is mostly calm. Around
the middle there’s a weak current, and in the
morning it’s possible to get sweep away.

11. SOIL TEXTURE
Aside from the lake itself, the
islands around it are also
distinct in themselves. The soil
seems to be made of red clay.
Toward the lake it slowly turns
to mud, and soft clumps of it
cling to the feet. Underwater, it
feels smooth and silty.
