Kotochik river flows out of the lake, however when water level in Turka river (tributary) is higher than the lake, Kotochik runs back into the lake. The water gets quite warm in the lake. There are summer cottages, tourist resorts and summer houses located at the northern shore. Bream, perch, pike and Siberian roach live in the lake.
