The Biya (Russian: Би́я; Altay: Бий, Biy) is a river in the Altai Republic and Altai Krai in Russia. At its confluence with the Katun, downstream of the city Biysk, the Ob is formed.[1] The Biya is 301 km long; the area of its drainage basin is 37,000 km2.[2] It flows out of the Lake Teletskoye. The river freezes up in mid-November to early December (some parts of the river freeze over on a year-to-year basis). It breaks up in early or mid-April. The Biya is navigable on its entire length.[3]
The maximum depth of river is 28 feet (8.5 m).
