The river starts south of the Hof Finnskog Church in Solør, Norway and discharges into lake Mellan-Fryken at Rottneros in Värmland, Sweden. The main river begins at the Rundtjern, but that lake is fed by several streams and small lakes on and surrounding the Evensbergklinten and Husuberget mountains. The highest source is the small lake Helveteskjelda, at an elevation of 520 metres (1,710 ft) above sea level.
