Ivan-Arakhley Lake System (Russian: Ивано-Арахлейские озёра) is a group of fresh water bodies in the Chita District, Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia.[2] The villages of Arakhley, Tasei and Preobrazhenka are located near the lakes.[3]

The lakes are a tourist attraction and there are holiday cottages and resorts near them. They are located within the Ivano-Arakhley State Natural Landscape Reserve (Zakaznik), a protected area of regional significance created in 1995, covering an area of 210,000 ha (520,000 acres).[4]
