Messingåga () is a long river which flows northwards, ending up as a tributary to the river Ranelva at ''Hjartåsen'' in the small village of Storvoll in the Dunderlandsdal valley in the municipality of Rana in Nordland county, Norway. The river should not be confused with the nearby stream, also named Messingåga, which flows into the river Ranelva from the east, just north of the village of Dunderland. The river is located in an untouched natural area, in one of the most important areas of wetland birds in Rana. It is very rich with Arctic char and trout, and has been proposed to be preserved both by environmental organizations 〔Samarbeidsrådet for Naturvernsaker (SRN), Den Norske Turistforening, Norges Naturvernforbund, Norges Jeger- og Fiskerforbund, WWW: ''Verneverdige norske vassdrag'', Oslo, April 2004〕〔Erling Solvang, Naturvernforbundet i Nordland: ''Ta vare på vassdragene'', Helgeland Arbeiderblad, July 16, 2004〕 and by the Norwegian parliament.〔Innst.S.nr.116 (2004-2005) Innstilling fra energi- og miljøkomiteen om supplering av Verneplan for vassdrag〕 ==Path== From the small lake of ''Kjerringvatnet'' (), the river ''Kjerringelva'' () flows in an eastern direction. This river meets the stream ''Jarfjellbekken'', which flows in a northern direction from the tarn ''Jarfjelltjønna'' through ''Austerskardet'', north of the lake ''Kopparvatnet''. Messingåga has its beginning at ''Elivollan'' (), where the ''Kjerringelva'' and ''Jarfjellbekken'' meet. The river flows in a northern direction, through the ''Messingdalen'' valley, east of the mountain ''Messingen''. On its way northwards, the river absorbs (from the west) five brooks flowing from the mountain ''Jarfjellet'', and (from the east) it also absorbs another five brooks from the mountain ''Kjerringfjellet'' and one brook from the mountain ''Harafjellet''. Messingåga flows through an area of moraines and deposits from glacial rivers. On its way to lake Kopparvatnet, it flows through an area of mounds and knots of moraines (kettle area). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Messingåga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
