The Rio Verde is a river in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. It is a tributary of the Paraná River.

The Cisalpina Private Natural Heritage Reserve protects the region where the Rio Verde and Paraná River converge, and contains a complex system of interconnected lagoons, streams and channels connected to the channel of the Paraná, which has shifted its bed to the east over time. There are traces of old channels of the Paraná dating back 10,000 to 40,000 years.[1]
