The Kizir River (Кизир) is a right tributary of the Kazyr River. It flows for about 300 kilometres (190 mi) through the Eastern Sayan Mountains in the Krasnoyarsk Krai of Russia. Its source is located in the Kryzhina Ridge. The river contains many cataracts which make it popular with Siberian rafters. Another tourist attraction is the Kinzelyuk Waterfall, one of the highest in Asia.
