Its source is very close to the Arctic Circle. Further down its course it bends and heads eastwards into the Ekityki from its left side.[4]
The river passes through sparsely populated areas. Winters in its area are long and bitter. The river surface remains frozen for over eight months. It usually freezes in Early October and stays under ice until June.

Salmon, whitefish, vendace, grayling, rainbow herring, pike, burbot, bull trout, and loach are common in the Chantalvergyrgyn waters.
