Ingol

Lake Ingol is a protected water body in eastern Siberia with exceptionally clear water that supports a variety of aquatic life. The lake sits within a vast landscape and represents one of the region's important freshwater environments.

The lake received official protection as Russia developed policies to safeguard Siberian water resources and natural environments. This designation came during a period when approaches to managing the land in the region were shifting.

Communities around this lake have built their way of life around fishing and water-based activities that remain central to how people spend their days. The connection between locals and the water shapes the identity of the region.

Access comes through designated entry points where visitors must follow local environmental rules to protect the water and wildlife. Anyone planning fishing or other activities should check what restrictions apply before arriving.

The water stays remarkably clear throughout the year, allowing you to see distinctly beneath the surface to underwater features. This clarity sets it apart from most other Siberian water bodies and makes underwater observation possible.
