| At Djurås just west of Borlänge in Dalarna the rivers Västerdalälven and Österdalälven converges and form the river Dalälven. River Dalälven flows from here to the south towards the border to the province of Västmanland and turns here to the east in to the province of Gästrikland. Here the river widens and form the bays Färnebofjärden, Hedesundafjärden and Bramsöfjärden. Between the first two bays is the stream Gysingeströmmarna located. When the river flows over the border into the province of Uppland, the river form the bay Untrafjärden, after this the river narrow down at the village of Mehedebyn and after this the river widen again and form the bay Storfjärden. Again the river narrow down and flows by the famous salmon fishing place at the village of Älvkarleby and after approx. 9 km it flows out into the bay Gävlebukten into the sea Bottenhavet at the village of Skutskär |
