Mörrumsån

Mörrumsån is a river in Blekinge County, Sweden. It originates in the Småland highlands and flows through the municipalities of Tingsryd, Karlshamn, and Olofström before emptying into the Baltic Sea. The river is approximately 180 kilometers long and has a drainage basin of about 3,300 square kilometers.

The Mörrumsån is renowned for its salmon and sea trout fishing. It is considered one of Sweden's premier fishing destinations for these species. The river's flow and water quality are carefully managed to support healthy fish populations. Significant efforts have been made to restore and maintain the river's ecological balance, including the construction of fish ladders and the removal of old mill dams.

Along its course, Mörrumsån passes through diverse landscapes, including forests, agricultural land, and small towns. The town of Mörrum, from which the river derives its name, is a central hub for fishing-related activities. The river's historical significance is also notable, having been used for timber floating and powering mills for centuries. Today, Mörrumsån remains an important natural and recreational resource for the region.
