It rises at Yug and flows into the Dvina Bay. Tributaries include Vaga, Emtsa, Vychegda, Uftyuga, Vaenga, Yorga, Nizhnyaya Toyma and Pinega.
The highlighted blue line is the course of the Northern Dvina River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Arkhangelsk, Severodvinsk and Kotlas.
Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Northern Dvina River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Northern Dvina River is, not a surveyed boundary.
