SEK is the airport code for the airport at Srednekolymsk, a small, remote town in the far north of the Sakha Republic, or Yakutia, in the Russian Far East, on the banks of the Kolyma river, just north of the Arctic Circle. It is one of the oldest Russian settlements in this Arctic region, founded in the 17th century as a Cossack fort on the Kolyma, in a land of endless taiga and tundra, frozen rivers and extreme cold. Srednekolymsk is a modest administrative centre for a huge, thinly populated district, in one of the coldest and most isolated inhabited parts of the world. In summer it can be reached only by air and river; in winter, the frozen Kolyma becomes an ice road. Because travel to Russia is affected by the current situation, travellers should check their government's current advice. The climate is subarctic and extreme, with long, bitter winters and brief summers.
