Surna River

The Folda (or Folla) is a river in Møre og Romsdal and Sør-Trøndelag, Norway.[1] The river is part of the Surna watershed and flows into the Surna 7 kilometers (4.3 mi) west-southwest of the village of Rindal in the municipality of Rindal in the Nordmøre district. It has its source in the Trollheimen mountains.[1] Two reservoirs lie along the course of the river: Lake Fold (Norwegian: Foldsjø or Follsjø) and Gray Lake (Norwegian: Gråsjø).[1] The Folda has a catchment area of 350 square kilometers (140 sq mi) and is fed by several tributaries: the Rinna, Bulu, and Vindøla.[1] The name of the river comes from Old Norse Fold, probably meaning 'the broad one'.[1]
