Description

We review the status of the Baikal Neutrino Telescope, which is operating in Lake Baikal since 1998 and has been upgraded to the 10 Mton detector NT200+ in 2005. We present selected physics results on searches for upward going neutrinos, relativistic magnetic monopoles and for very high energy neutrinos. Recent results of R&D activities towards a km3 Baikal neutrino telescope are discussed.
