The Kisir ( Russian Кизир ) is a 300 km long right tributary of the Kasyr in the southern Siberian Eastern Sayan in Russia .
The Kisir rises on the southern slope of the Wala ridge of the Eastern Sayan, a few kilometers north of the parallel Kryschin ridge with the 2891 m high Pik Grandiosny one of the highest mountains in this part of the range. The spring is located a good 300 km as the crow flies southeast of Krasnoyarsk and 200 km southwest of Nizhneudinsk . The Kisir flows in a mostly narrow valley for almost its entire length in west to west-northwest direction through the mountains. In its mostly narrow valley, the river overcomes three larger rapids . About 50 kilometers above its mouth, it turns south and makes several wide arcs until it finally reaches the right Yenisei tributary, Tuba with two arms, about 30 km east of Kuragino and 19 km above its confluence with the Amyl Kasyr flows. The right (lower) estuary is called after the village of Scherbaticha protoka Scherbatichinskaja on its bank , the several square kilometers large island between the Ostrov Scherbatichinski arms .
The catchment area of the river covers 9170 km². The most important tributaries are Nitschka (length 110 km), Schinda (152 km) and Dscheb (59 km), all from the right. There are no larger left tributaries.
The discharge at the village of Imisskoje, 9 km above the mouth, is an annual mean of 302 m³ / s, with a maximum monthly mean of 864 m³ / s in June and a minimum monthly mean of 34.72 m³ / s in March. The river usually freezes over from November to late April.
The area on the upper and middle reaches of the Kisir is practically uninhabited, there are no towns. Only on the last 60 km of the river, below the confluence of the Jeb tributary, there are a few villages, mainly on the right bank of the river. The largest are Shuravlyovo, Kordovo and Scherbaticha, as well as Imisskoje on the left bank. Around Schuravljowo and Kordowo, the route of the South Siberian Railway (section Abakan - Taischet ) follows the right bank of the river for about 20 km , as does the road that connects the district center of Kuragino with the small town of Artyomovsk and the former gold mining area surrounding it. At Schuravljowo a railway bridge was built over the Kisir between 2000 and 2004 to connect the Mulginskoje iron ore deposit on the left bank and, in the future, others with total reserves of up to 1 billion tons of ore to the railway network. Between Scherbaticha and Imisskoje, a few kilometers above the mouth of the river, a road bridge has been crossing the river since the 1980s, which connects the village of Moscharka and the villages around Petropavlovka upstream on the right bank of the Kasyr with the road network.
