The Kan (Russian Кан) river is a 629 km long tributary to the Yenisei River in Siberia, Russia. It drains a basin of 36,900 km².
The headwaters of the river rise in the Sayan Mountains and flow from there in a northerly direction through Kansk and then in a westerly direction, passing northwest of Krasnoyarsk and entering the Yenisei near Zelenogorsk just north of Krashoyarsk.
