Yanragytgyn lies in a swampy flat area of the southwestern part of the Anadyr Lowland dotted with thermokarst lakes. An unnamed tributary of the Chirynay of the Velikaya basin, flows out of the southern lakeshore. The lake freezes in October and stays under ice until June.[https://water-rf.ru/%D0%A0%D0%B5%D0%B3%D0%B8%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%8B_%D0%A0%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%B8/2588/%D0%A7%D1%83%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%82%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9_%D0%B0%D0%B2%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%BC%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9_%D0%BE%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%83%D0%B3 Chukotka Autonomous Okrug - Water of Russia]
