Pieninka

Pieninkä is the Karelian name of the Peninga, a river of western Karelia that flows from Lake Peninga through Lake Nizhneye to Leksozero. Its waters form part of an old network of routes across the forested watershed. Travellers from the Segozero country could carry boats across short stretches of land to the upper Peninga, then descend to Leksozero and seek passages towards the Kem basin or the rivers of Finland.
