The Alakit is a right tributary of the Olenyok. It originates in a small lake of the northeastern side of the
Central Siberian Plateau. The river flows roughly northwestwards or northwards all along its course. In some stretches it forms
meanders and there are lakes near its channel in certain sections of its course. Finally it meets the right bank of the Olenyok from its mouth. The river is fed by rain and snow. Owing to the severe climate of the plateau it is frozen between early October and late May. The longest tributaries are the long Lower Bolshaya Kounda and the long Upper Bolshaya Kounda from the left, as well as the long Mastaakh from the right. ==See also==
