Ranseren (Norwegian), also known as Bije-Ransarn (Swedish) or Bijjie Raentsere (Southern Sami), is a lake on the border between Norway and Sweden. The Norwegian side lies in Hattfjelldal Municipality in Nordland county (and it is inside Børgefjell National Park). The Swedish side of the lake is called Bije-Ransaren, which means "the upper Ransaren" and this part lies in Vilhelmina Municipality in Västerbotten County.^[1]

The brook that flows from the lake on the east side is called Saxån. It leads to the larger lake, Ransarn, which is located in Vilhelmina Municipality in Sweden. Bije-Ransaren is called the upper Ransarn in contrast to the bigger lake, which is referred to as "lower" Ransarn.

The lake lies about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from the village of Stekenjokk in Vilhelmina, Sweden. South of the Swedish side of the lake, about 0.5 kilometres (0.31 mi) from the border, is a small Sami house that was used during reindeer marking season.

-South of the Swedish Bije Ransaren, about {{convert|0.5|km}} from the border, you can find a small [[Sami people|Sami]] house that was used as home for the Samis during reindeer marking season. The brook that flows from Bije Ransaren on the east side is called Saxån and leads to the big lake, Ransaren in Vilhelmina, Sweden. Bije Ransaren is called the upper Ransaren because of this bigger lower Ransaren. To visit the Norwegian Ranseren or the Swedish Bije Ransaren you have to walk about {{convert|10|km}} from [[Stekenjokk]] in Vilhelmina, Sweden.
