The Tympylykan originates in an area of swamps and small lakes of the
Central Yakutian Lowland. It flows first in a SSE direction and then roughly southeastwards to the south of the
Linde within a wide
floodplain. Towards the last stretch of its course it bends and flows northeastwards, meandering among marshes and lakes. Finally it meets the left bank of the Lena upstream of its mouth in the
Laptev Sea. The
Lyapiske has its mouth roughly on the opposite side of the Lena. The main tributaries of the Tympylykan are the long Achchygyi-Tympylykan and long Konkyus-Mande from the left, as well as the long Yogdyonyu from the right. ==See also==
