The river originates at the confluence of the rivers Assyni (Ассыни) and Konin. It flows into a 30 km wide swampy area before ending in the Tugur Bay of the Sea of Okhotsk.[2]

Ecology

The Tugur is a good place for fishing, with species such as grayling, lenok, Siberian salmon and northern pike being abundant in its waters and many species spawning in the river.[3] There is also a great variety of wildlife in its banks, with brown bears, Manchurian wapiti, wolves and otters. Among the birds the golden eagle, osprey, mergansers and geese deserve mention.
