Baikal freezes for a very long time. The first ice forms in early November in small bays and coves, and by about the beginning of January the Strait of the Small Sea freezes. The entire lake is covered with ice only by the end of January, so the Baikal ice season is short: from the beginning of February to the end of March.

Such ice, as many have seen on the Internet, is not everywhere. This is due to the fact that Lake Baikal is huge (larger than the area of Belgium) and the microclimate on it is different everywhere. The "same" beautiful ice forms along the western coast, approximately from the island of Olkhon to the village of Listvyanka. Ice is not guaranteed either to the south or north.
