Lake Onega Map
Lake Onega is a lake in Russia, covering about 9,800 km² (3,780 sq mi), with a maximum depth of 127 m (417 ft). This map shows the lake outlined in blue on shaded relief, with the rivers, borders and towns around it.
How to read this map
Its surface lies about 33 m (108 ft) above sea level. Inflows include Vytegra, Vodla, Suna, Andoma, Gimreka, Kamenny Brook, Lososinka and Megra. It drains through Svir.
The blue outline marks Lake Onega as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Petrozavodsk, Kondopoga and Segezha.
Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of Lake Onega come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where Lake Onega is, not a surveyed boundary.
