Setun River

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Setun River (Russian: Сетунь) is a river in the west of Moscow and the largest tributary of the Moskva River in Moscow. The length of the river is 38 km (24 miles), 20 km (12 mi) of which is in Moscow itself. Its basin has an area of 190 sq km (73 sq mi). The Setun River originates in a village of Salariyevo in the Moscow Oblast and flows into the Moskva River near the Novodevichy Convent. The river teems with roach, European perch, crucian carp, pike, and other fish, but is of no value to the fishing industry due to pollution with toxic waste.
