Geography

Sargul lies in the Baraba Lowland, West Siberian Plain. It belongs to the Chulym river basin, located in the southern part of the Ob-Irtysh interfluve. The Chulym enters the lake from the northeastern side and flows out from the southwestern end. Sargul is the next-to-last of the fluvial lakes of the westward flowing Chulym before it ends at Lake Malye Chany; the last one is lake Uryum, which lies about 15km (09miles) further downstream.[3] It has an hourglass shape roughly aligned from northeast to southwest..[2] [4] [5]

The Bagan flows 17km (11miles) to the south. Lake Malye Chany lies 30km (20miles) to the west, Sartlan 32km (20miles) to the NNW, and Inder 64km (40miles) to the east.[1]
