Travelers Khariton Laptev, A. F. Middendorf, F. B. Schmidt mention the Norilsk River and the Norilsk Mountains in their reports. There are many versions of the origin of the name of the Norilka River. According to one version, the name of the river came from the word "norilo" — a long thin pole that stretched the string of the shutter nets under the ice from hole to hole, according to another - the name of the river and, accordingly, the city comes from the Evenk word "Narus" or Yukaghir "nyoril", which means "swamps". Today Norilsk is an industrial city with a rich history, the city-forming enterprise "Norilsk Nickel". Supper.

The bridge over the Norilka River is noted in the UNESCO collection "Bridge Building of the World" as "the northernmost of the large bridges in the world beyond the 69th parallel". Lakes Shallow, Lama, Keta, Deep, Dog, Nakomyaken and numerous small lakes in the tundra play a regulatory role in the water regime of the river, smoothing floods. Then our way lies along the Talaya River, we climb up to the island of Melkoe, which is located about 25 kilometers east of Norilsk. The lake is located in a wide basin between the western spurs of the Putorana plateau. The lake is connected to Lake Lama by a strait or, as the locals call it, the Lama River (Lamochen) with a length of 18 km. The banks are mostly flat, swampy in places. The bottom is mostly sandy. On the map of Asian Russia, published in 1911 by the Russian General Staff, Lake Melkoye was called Lake Bystrovskoye, although the locals did not know the name of this. Here is the famous Lama Lake – northern Switzerland, Taimyr Baikal, polar Ritsa. This is perhaps the most beautiful and famous lake of Taimyr. Even his name is similar to the rest of the northern hydronyms. The lake is located in a deep mountain depression. Its basin has a tectonic origin. According to scientists, the lake is about 100 million years old. The name of the lake comes from the Tungusic-Manchu word "laamu" - sea, ocean; Evenk "lamu" - sea, big water. By the way, the same name – Lama – Evenks, who lived much to the south, called Baikal. Excursion to the waterfall "Southern Neralakh". Dinner. Excursion to the waterfalls of the Vitamin river.

The rocky shores of the lake, into which the streams of water fall, are distinguished by a pronounced red-brown hue. The waterfall adorning the gorge is small compared to such waterfalls of the Putorana plateau as Bolshoy Kureysky, Grandiose, waterfalls on the Oran or Kanda rivers.
