The Menkere (Russian: Мэнкэрэ; Yakut: Мэҥкэрэ, Meŋkere) is a river in Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russia.

After leaving the mountains it heads southwestwards into the Central Yakutian Lowland, forming meanders in the flat permafrost floodplain.

[4] The longest tributary of the Menkere is the 98 km (61 mi) long Dyuyogyesinde from the left.

The last half of the river course describes a wide, roughly semicircular, arch around the southern area of Ulakhan-Kyuel lake.

[5][6] Among the fish species found in the waters of the Menkere lenok, pike, grayling and taimen are worth mentioning.
