Lake Kovdozero

Kovdozero lies in the northern lake country on the course of the Kovda, whose waters ultimately reach the White Sea. The river system begins around Topozero and passes through a succession of lakes and channels before reaching Kovdozero. Its shores and islands are set among rocky forested ground, with smaller lakes linked to its bays. The natural lake was one of the larger waters on this route between the Karelian interior and the coast.
