Lake Yalpuh

Lake Yalpuh is a long freshwater lake in the lower Danube basin, extending north from the river's floodplain. The Yalpuh River enters its northern end, while its southern waters meet the neighbouring Lake Kugurlui. Low shores and wetlands connect the lakes to the broad Danubian landscape, where reeds and shallow waters provide habitat for fish and water birds. The lake's length carries it well into the plains of southern Bessarabia.
