The river basin is a lonely, desolate area devoid of settlements. The name of the river comes from the Yakut language "argaa/salaa" (Арҕаа/Салаа), meaning "western tributary". Course  
The Arga-Sala is a left tributary of the Olenyok. Its sources are in the northeastern slopes of the Bukochan Range, Central Siberian Plateau, in the Evenkiysky District of Krasnoyarsk Krai. The river is formed at the confluence of the  long Left Arga-Sala and  long Right Arga-Sala. The Arga-Sala flows roughly eastwards with rapids and riffles in numerous stretches. It flows then across a floodplain with small lakes, changing direction with southeastward and northeastward bends, but still within a generally eastward trend. Finally it joins the left bank of the Olenyok river  upstream of Olenyok village, Olenyoksky District, one of the few inhabited localities of the area. The Arga-Sala is frozen between October and May. Tributaries 
Its main tributaries are the  long Kengeede (Кэнгээдэ), the  long Kyuyonelekeen (Кюёнэлэкээн) and the  long Kukusunda from the left, as well as the  long Kyuyonelikeen (Кюёнэликээн) from the right. Flora and fauna
The river flows north of the Arctic circle across a lightly-wooded taiga zone. The most common trees are larches. Taimen, lenok, whitefish, grayling and pike are the main fish species found in the waters of the Arga-Sala. See also
