The Trysilelva River in Norway is an extension of the River Klarälven, which flows from Sweden. However, after the waterway enters the Norwegian territory and before being named as River Trysilelva, the river had been called as Femundelva. But later, it got renamed Trysilelva River, because the river travels along the municipality of Trysil.
