The Kievsky Yogan flows across the Central Siberian Plateau. Its basin is located in the Alexandrovsky District. There are no permanent settlements along the course of the river.[2]

Course

The Kievsky Yogan is a right tributary of the Ob river. It flows in a roughly SSW direction along a very swampy area. In its lower reaches there are numerous lakes. Finally it meets an arm of the Ob, the Kiev Channel (проток Киевская), 68 km (42 mi) from its mouth in the right bank of the Ob.[3][4][5]

Tributaries

The main tributary of the Kievsky Yogan is the 77 km (48 mi) long Bolshaya (Большая) on the left.[3][1] The river is fed by snow and rain.[2]
