Several-time Drone Video of the Week Finalist Makhorov brings us this stunning drone video from Russia's Altai Mountains, home of some of the world's most remote and beautiful scenery.  The range, which runs through southern Siberia and also covers portions of China, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan, has peaks as high as 4.5k meters above sea level (14.8k ft.).  Sparsely populated and studded with a number of giant lakes, the Altai's are famously difficult to access (particularly from within Russia) due to a lack of passes.

Multiple Drone Video of the Week Winner Mahhorov brings us this stunning drone video of one of the virtually unknown natural wonders of Russia: a lake in southwestern Siberia which turns pink for a period each year.  Lake Burlinskoye is located near Bursol, in the province of Altai Krai.  The change of hue is due to the presence of micro-organisms in the lake, which is one of a number of lakes near the border with Kazakhstan which exhibit this phenomenon.  The pink phase generally lasts a few weeks in late summer. This video was a DVOW nominee in September 2020.

Novosibirsk is the facto business capital of Siberia, and Russia's third-largest city after Moscow and St. Petersburg.  A comparative infant by Russian standards, Novosibirsk was founded in 1893 as the crossing-point for the Trans-Siberian Railroad over the Ob River.   During Soviet times, the city became a major industrial center, with many factories relocated here following the Nazi invasion of the USSR in 1941.  In this fantastic dronelapse by Makharov, you'll be treated to some stunning aerial views of this very modern city.

Wait until you see this incredible aerial video of frozen Lake Baikal by contributor diamondsky. Lake Baikal is an ancient, massive lake in Siberia, Russia just north of the Mongolian border. The world's deepest and most voluminous lake, Baikal remains frozen for over a third of the year (usually between January to early May or June). In this video, he'll show us the frozen caves around the lake, a car driving across the ice, and the snow-covered mountains which surround parts of Baikal. This video was a DVOW finalist in December 2019.

AirVuz contributor Andrei travel Film brings us this stunning Fall drone video from the Altai (Altay) Mountains in the southern part of Russia's vast Siberian region.  The range, which runs on a generally northwest-to-southeast axis, also covers parts of neighboring China, Mongolia, and Kazakhstan.  With few passes into and out of the region, it's considered some of the most remote terrain in the world.  The video includes rare aerial footage of Lake Dzhangyskol, which is part of the Chuysky Range within the Altai's.

Mayday Studio brings us this beautiful drone video of Tomsk, an important city in Siberian Russia.  It's located in the western part of the region, and is the capital of the oblast (state) of the same name.  With a population of about a half million, Tomsk is one of the oldest cities in Siberia; its establishment in 1604 was one of the seminal events in the centuries-long process whereby Russia conquered the vast region.  Today, it's a major educational center, with six universities and over 100k students.

Contributor Adrianotrapani created this magnificent video from western Siberia in Russia.  It was shot in a district of the Irkust Oblast, which lies just to the west of Lake Baikal.  The video was shot along the Lena River, one of the three great rivers which drain Siberia into the Arctic Sea.  Drawing from the same watershed as Lake Baikal (the world's largest freshwater lake measured by water volume), the Lena runs over 4.3k mi. (almost 2.7k mi.), forming a giant delta north of the Arctic Circle.

Sheregish is a municipality in the Russian oblast of Kemerovo, one of the southwestern provinces of the vast region known as Siberia. Once known primarily as an iron mining town (and named after the two brothers who made the first iron find), it's emerged as one of the top ski resort destinations in Russia.  Home to numerous groomed slopes, the area now attracts about a million visitors per year.  Seen here in this drone video by contributor alex_avdeev, Sheregesh lies on the slopes of Mount Zelenaya.

The Berd River is an important waterway in Russia's Siberian region.  It is the right tributary of the Ob River, the world's seventh-longest and one of the three main rivers which drain Siberia northward into the Arctic Ocean (the other two being the Yenisei and Lena Rivers).  The Berd River's course runs for just over 350 km or around 225 mi.  In this drone video by ZURG, you'll get a bird's eye view of this important Siberian waterway, which originates in the highlands around the Altai Mountains.

Siberia's Rivers Thawing

Mayday stu...

Russia's Siberia region is vast, and large parts of it receive comparatively large amounts of precipitation - as much as 50 cm. or about 20 inches per year.  That's why three of the roughly two-dozen largest rivers in the world are in Siberia - the Amur, Ob, and Lena Rivers, all of which essentially exist to drain Siberia into the Arctic Ocean.  In this video by AirVuz contributor and drone pilot Mayday Studio, you'll see this process in action as peak drainage approaches with the coming of spring.

For a first upload to AirVuz, new contributor Air Cinema brings us this phenomenal aerial view of a frozen Lake Baikal in the Siberia region of Russia.  Baikal is what's known as a rift lake, formed by movements within the earth's crust.  This explains both the unusual rock formations around the lake's shoreline as well as its stupendous depth - up to 1.65k meters or about 5.4k ft., by far the world's deepest freshwater lake.  Frozen during the first 4-5 months of the year, the ice thickness reaches over 2 meters (nearly 7 ft.) in places.

The process by which Russia conquered Siberia was analogous in some respects to the western expansion of the USA.   One of the critical events in this process was the establishment of the city of Tomsk, which was affected by the decree of the Tsar shortly after the turn of the 16th century.  While it's no longer the largest city in the region, it is the educational capital of Siberia and in many respects its cultural capital.  Check out this city on the Tom River in this drone video by Mayday Studios.
