The Kelimyar (Russian: Келимяр Yakut: Кэлимээр, Kelimeer) is a river in Yakutia (Sakha Republic), Russia. It is a tributary of the Olenyok with a length of 254 kilometres (158 mi) and a drainage basin area of 4,050 square kilometres (1,560 sq mi).

The river flows north of the Arctic Circle across a desolate area of Bulunsky District devoid of settlements. The nearest inhabited places are Taymylyr, located downstream from its confluence with the Olenyok, and Sklad (Tyumyati), located a little upstream.
