Lare is one of the Districts of Ethiopia, or woredas, in the Gambela Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Nuer Zone, Lare is bordered on the south and east by the Anuak Zone, on the west by the Baro River which separates it from Jikaw, and on the north by the Jikaw River which separates it from South Sudan. Towns in Lare include Kuergeng.
The terrain in Lare consists of marshes and grasslands; elevations range from 410 to 430 meters above sea level.[1] A notable landmark is Gambela National Park, which occupies part of the area south of the Baro.
At some point between 2001 and 2007, the eastern kebeles of Jikaw were split off to create Lare.[2]
