The Bambuyka (Russian: Бамбуйка) is a river in Buryatia, southern East Siberia, Russia. It is 172 kilometres (107 mi) long, and has a drainage basin of 4,170 square kilometres (1,610 sq mi).
The only inhabited place in the area is Bambuyka, Muysky District, a small hamlet located close to the mouth of the river.
Course
The Bambuyka is a left tributary of the Vitim. Its sources are in a small lake close to the southwestern slope of Muisky Gigant, the highest peak of the Southern Muya Range. The river flows first in a SSE direction across mountainous terrain. It bends east close to the east of a sharp bend of the Tsipa and flows roughly in an eastward direction. Then it bends again and flows southeastwards. In its lower course it bends gradually, meandering northeastwards in a floodplain, until it finally meets the left bank of the Vitim 812 kilometres (505 mi) from its mouth in the Lena.
