Course
[edit | edit source]The Kazym is a right tributary of the Ob. Its sources are in the Siberian Uvaly. It flows through the northern part of the West Siberian Plain meandering across a very swampy valley. There are numerous lakes in its basin, including the relatively large Sorum-Lor and the Saran-Kho-Lor. The Kazym river is fed mainly by snow. It freezes in early November and begins to thaw in late May.
Tributaries
[edit | edit source]The main tributaries of the Kazym are the 374 km (232 mi) long Amnya, the 285 km (177 mi) long Lykhn and the 156 km (97 mi) long Pomut on the left, as well as the 190 km (120 mi) long Sorum on the right.[1][2]
