Crystal-clear Lake Baikal is a vast body of the bluest water, surrounded by rocky or tree-covered foreshores behind which mountains float like phantoms at indeterminable distances. Baikal’s meteorological mood swings are transfixing spectacles, whole weather systems dancing for your delectation over Siberia’s ‘climatic kitchen’.
Shaped like a banana, Baikal is 636km from north to south and up to 1637m deep, making it the world’s deepest lake. Incredibly, it contains nearly one-fifth of the planet’s unfrozen fresh water, more than North America’s five Great Lakes combined, and despite some environmental worries it’s drinkably pure.
