The Aursjøen is a lake in Norway . It lies on the border between the two municipalities of Lesja ( Fylke Innlandet ) and Molde (Fylke Møre og Romsdal ).
In 1953 the Aursjøen was dammed and the water level was raised by 25 meters, so that the neighboring lakes Gautsjøen and Grynningen merged with it. The reservoir supplies the Aura kraftverk hydropower plants in Sunndalsøra (290 MW Aura and 20 MW Osbu ) and Grytten (149 MW) near Åndalsnes with water.
The natural runoff runs over the Aura to Eikesdalsvatnet and further over the Eira to Langfjord .
