Lake Tishkeozero

Tiksheozero lies in the northern lake country of Karelia. The Lopskaya, Khlebnaya and Toshchaya feed its waters; from the northeastern end the Lopskaya and its branch, the Vincha, continue toward Notozero. Large islands including Kaigas and Kangassari divide the lake's bays and reaches. Its waters belong to the Kovda system, a chain of rivers and lakes leading eastward towards the White Sea.
