It is the 136th biggest lake in Finland. The lake has many islands and islets. Kivesjärvi is a bifurcation lake, because there are two outflows: the original route is river Alanteenjoki to the lake Alanteenjärvi. In the 19th century the timber rafting workers needed a shorter route to the Oulujärvi. They made a new river named , and most of the outflow started to flow via it, although Kivesjärvi is still a bifurcation lake. (en)
