Lesson plan

Vorma

The Vorma is a river in Norway that brings water from lake Mjøsa into the Glomma river. The Vorma is long and flows through the town of Eidsvoll. The Vorma flows from Lake Mjøsa at the village of Minnesund to join with the Glomma just north of Årnes. Vorma was so named because it was a "warm" river that never froze over, while both the Glomma and the Gudbrandsdalslågen routinely freeze in the winter. The junction of the Vorma with the Glomma at Årnes and Nes is the site of the Funnefoss on the Glomma, a fall.
