Template: Infobox River / Obsolete

The Río Coco, formerly known as the Rio Segovia, is the longest river in Central America. It rises near San Marcos de Colón in Honduras and runs in its upper reaches by Nicaragua, where it forms the border between the departments of Nueva Segovia and Jinotega here. In the middle and lower reaches, it is the border between Nicaragua and Honduras. After 750 kilometers, it opens at Cabo Gracias a Dios in the Caribbean Sea. Along the river live the Miskito Indians, in whose language the river Wanki means.
