Lake Valdayskoye, or Lake Valdai (Russian: Валдайское озеро, озеро Валдай, romanized: ozero Valdai) is a freshwater lake located in the center of Valdaysky District of Novgorod Oblast in Russia in the middle of the Valdai Hills. One of the largest lakes in Novgorod Oblast, it has a surface area (without islands) of 19.7 km2 (7.6 sq mi),[3] and the area of its basin is 97.2 km2 (37.5 sq mi). The average depth of Lake Valdayskoye is 12 m (39 ft) (the deepest point reaches 60 m (200 ft)). The lake freezes up in early December and stays icebound until early May. The lake is located in the center of Valdaysky National Park.

The town of Valday stands on the southwestern shore of the lake along the M10 Moscow - St. Petersburg highway. One of the islands, Selvitsky Island (Russian: Остров Сельвицкий), is occupied by the Valday Iversky Monastery. Besides Valday, there are also several villages around the lake. An anabranch connects Lake Valdai to a smaller lake, Lake Uzhin (Russian: озеро Ужин). Lake Uzhin, the source of the Valdayka River, belongs to the river basin of the Msta River and thus to the Baltic Sea basin.

The lake has almost a round shape with a large bay appended to it on the northwest end. There are several islands on the lake, the biggest of which is the 119 ha (290-acre) Ryabinovy Island (Russian: Остров Рябиновый).[4] It is connected to the lake coast in the south and to Iversky Monastery in the north.

Lake Valdayskoye is located in the center of the Valdai Hills, and is surrounded by many other lakes. Many of these lakes drain into Lake Valdayskoye or into the Valdayka. The basin of the lake comprises all of the northeastern part of Valdaysky District.

The lake has become[when?] a popular tourist-destination, with many recreation facilities on its shores. The first meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club took place on the lake in 2004.

The lake is navigable, and the Zarya-211 (Russian: «Заря-211») cruiser ship sailed between the town of Valday and the Iversky Monastery until 2016.[5]

Since 2004, a road connects Valday along the shore of Lake Valdai over a 140 m (460 ft) bridge to Ryabinovy Island and then over a 30 m (98 ft) bridge to the 11 ha (27-acre) Selvitsky Island to the monastery over which buses, taxis, and cars travel, or, during the winter when the lake is frozen, it is only a 3 km (1.9 mi) walk between Valday and the monastery over the frozen Lake Valdayskoye.[6][7]

Putin's Dacha

Putin's Dacha is on the southern 100 ha (250 acres) of a peninsula between Lake Uzhin (Russian: Ужин) and Lake Valdai (Russian: озеро Валдай) and is across Lake Valdai from Valday (Russian: Валдай).[8][9] Often, this location, which was built in 1980, is called Valdai, Dolgie Borody (Russian: Долгие Бороды), Uzhin (Russian: «Ужин») or Stalin's Dacha, but Stalin was not alive when Valdai was built.[10][11][a] Abuting north of this location is 150 ha (370 acres) owned by the Russian Federation and is frequented by the Federal Security Service.[8] According to Alexei Navalny, Yuri Kovalchuk is the owner of Putin's Dacha.[8]

The property, also known as Valdai Palace, has been outfitted with several air defence systems amidst the rising threat of Ukrainian missile and drone strikes as part of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[23] These systems include Pantsir S-1 self propelled anti aircraft weapons and at least one S-400 surface-to-air missile system[24]
