The Yana river is formed at the confluence of the Right Yana (Правая Яна) and the Left Yana (Левая Яна) at an elevation of 340 m (1,120 ft), from which point the river is 190 kilometres (120 mi) long. Including the 26 kilometres (16 mi) long Right Yana, which has its source in the eastern end of the Suntar-Khayata Range, the total length is 216 kilometres (134 mi). The shorter Left Yana has its source in the Kolyma Highlands.[1][3]
The Yana flows roughly southeastwards across mountainous terrain. In its last stretch it enters a floodplain among wetlands just east of the Taui River (Kava) and west of the Arman. Finally it flows into the Amakhton Bay, part of the Taui Bay of the Sea of Okhotsk.[4]
The main tributary of the Yana is the 114 kilometres (71 mi) long Seimkan that joins it in its lower course from the left.
