Pekhorka, Protected river in Moscow Oblast, Russia
The Pekhorka River extends for 42 kilometers through Moscow Oblast, serving as a left tributary of the Moskva River with three major ponds along its course.
The Moscow General Development Plan of 1971 included the Pekhorka River in a project to construct an Eastern Navigable Channel, which remained unrealized.
The river's name originates from Old Slavonic language elements, combining 'pekh' with the suffix 'ur' to indicate movement or pushing action.
The waterway flows through multiple urban areas including Balashikha and Zheleznodorozhniy, connecting communities and providing water resources to local populations.
The Pekhorka River system includes three distinct ponds: one near Lukino village, another at Pekhra-Pokrovskoye, and a third in Balashikha-2 microdistrict.
