At around 4845 kilometres, it is one of the longest rivers in the world, and forms a natural border between Temay and Eliposi.
Ymyölin's watershed area covers most of Uvanga, where it is of great cultural and economic importance. The river serves as a crucial ice-road in the winter, linking otherwise isolated communities. Riverboat tours in the summer also provide Uvanga's most significant tourist attraction.
