Soydozero

The name of the lake Soidozero from the Finnish language is translated as a pipe or whistle. Why this name is still unknown to historians.

Outwardly, the lake seems small, but in fact not so. The area of Soydozero is almost four square kilometers. The depth of the lake is also not serious. In some places it reaches two meters, but most of the lake can be crossed on foot without wetting rolled-up pants.

The lake is replenished annually with water from flowing streams, underwater water, natural precipitation. There is a river near the reservoir, which originates in Soydozero. It is also called Lake Soyda. In those parts, as a rule, clean and almost clear water. What can not boast of the northern part of the lake. There the water surface is completely covered with duckweed, the shores are silted. But on the shores grow centuries-old pine trees and spruce, which are combined in a reserve.
