Virvasselva

Virvasselva

Virvasselva is a river in Rana municipality in Nordland, Norway. The river flows out of the eastern part of Virvatnet. The river "Boneselva" meets Virvasselva in the delta area around 1 km east of the lake Virvatnet, and the brook "Sørbekken" («the southern brook») also flows out of Virvatnet and meets Virvasselva. This is a large, continuous, very rich and untouched wetland area with tarns, rivers, marshes and very tight vegetation. Virvasselva is very rich on arctic char.

Virvasselva meets Ranelva as a tributary at "Elvmøthei" in Dunderlandsdal, around 70 km from the outlet of Ranelva on Saltfjellet.
