River description
The Severka River flows in the southeast of Moscow and the Moscow Region - this is the right tributary of Moscow. She takes the source from the village of Stepygino, located in the Domodedovo district. It flows through the fertile Russian land for 98 kilometers and is mastered by the whole person. The Severka River (Moscow Region) has a small number of forests on its banks.
The size and name of the river
The river has a fairly fast flow, and the width is not very large, about 3-4 meters. But the bed is meandering. Some of its areas are completely overgrown with willow, while others are shallow, for example, near the village of Lipkino. In summer, due to a lack of water level in the reservoir, there are places overgrown with reeds. Near the village of Mescherno a dam is installed. The river got its name from the temperature of the water: in any weather, it is cool. Not cold, but refreshing and invigorating in the summer heat.
