The Folda (or Folla) is a river in Møre og Romsdal and Sør-Trøndelag, Norway. The river is part of the Surna watershed and flows into the Surna 7 kilometers (4.3 mi) west-southwest of the village of Rindal in the municipality of Rindal in the Nordmøre district. It has its source in the Trollheimen mountains. Two reservoirs lie along the course of the river: Lake Fold (Norwegian: Foldsjø or Follsjø) and Gray Lake (Norwegian: Gråsjø). The Folda has a catchment area of 350 square kilometers (140 sq mi) and is fed by several tributaries: the Rinna, Bulu, and Vindøla. The name of the river comes from Old Norse Fold, probably meaning 'the broad one'.
