The source is located in the country of Venezuela in South America.
The source is apparently on the Parima River that runs from Brazil through Venezuela. The location is a hill known as Cerro Carlos Delgado-Chalbaud, named for the Venezuelan president assassinated in 1950.

It is located in Venezuela. It begins on the western facing portion of the Parima Mountains and travels 1,700 miles through Venezuela before emptying into the Atlantic Ocean.

It is known for its piranhas, the Orinoco crocodile, and the indigenous Native American tribes which live along the river.
