The Loktewka ( Russian Локтевка ) is a left tributary of the Charysch in the Russian Altai region .

The Loktewka rises on the western slope of the Sinjucha , the highest mountain of the Kolywan ridge , in the north-western Altai Mountains .

The course of the river lies almost entirely within the Kurja Rajon . Only the last few kilometers are in the Pospelicha district . The Loktewka takes from the right Belaya , a river, the near Kolyvan springs on. The Loktewka reaches the Kurja district administrative center halfway , where there is a runoff level. After 111 km the Loktewka flows into the Tscharysch, a left tributary of the Ob . The Loktewka drains an area of ​​1610 km². At the Kuja gauge, 53 km above the mouth, the mean discharge is 7.34 m³ / s. The river is mainly fed by the snowmelt .
