Lake Räpina is a lake in Räpina Parish, in the district of Polva in Estonia. It is in the southeast of the country close to the border with Russia. The entirety of the lake was added to the environmental register as an important habitat for bats.[1] At the southern end of the lake is Estonia's oldest and still operating paper factory.[2]
