Lake Beloye

Lake Beloye is a lake in Klepikovsky District, Ryazan Oblast, Russia. It is notable for its relatively great depth for the region - 50 metres - created as a deep gouge in the landscape in the most recent glaciation. The lake is located in the Meshchyera Lowlands, a glacial alluvial plain of swampy lowlands, gravelly moraines and limestone bedrock. It was once connected by an artificial canal to Lake Velikoye. The canal was filled in 2009. Lake Beloye is surrounded by pine forests, with reeds and sedge predominating on the shore. It is a popular lake for recreation and fishing, being home to pike, carp and other fish. ()
