Location
Omsk is situated on the banks of the north-flowing Irtysh, at its confluence with the Om River, at an altitude of 87 metres, and on both branches of the Trans-Siberian railway. It is 2,700 kilometres east of Moscow. The Irtysh and the Ob Rivers connect Omsk with coal and mineral-mining towns in Kazakhstan, as well as oil, natural gas and lumber-rich northern Siberia. Scheduled and charter flights link Omsk Tsentralny Airport with multiple domestic and international (primarily, German) destinations, making it an important air gateway to Siberia and the Far East.
