The Olenyok River (Оленёк, sometimes spelled Olenek) is a major river in northern Siberian Russia. It is 2,292 km long, of which around 1,000km is navigable. Its major tributary is the Arga-Sala River.
The river's source is on the northern Central Siberian Plateau, from where it flows north east through Olenyok before emptying into the Laptev Sea at Ust-Olenyok just west of the Lena River delta.
The Olenyok is known for its abundant fish.
