The Bistrița in Romania |
The Bistrița ( German Bistritz or Bistritza ) is a right tributary of the Sereth in Romania .
It rises as Bistrița Aurie ("Golden Bistritz") in the Rodnaer Mountains (Rum. Munții Rodnei , Hungarian Radnai-havasok ) and flows through the entire breadth of the Eastern Carpathians in the Moldau region (Rum. Moldova ), crosses a piece of the former Bukowina and then flows below Bacău from the right into the Sereth, which in turn flows into the Danube at Galați and this a little later into the Black Sea . The river has a length of 290 km, a catchment area of 6974 km² and (shortly from its confluence with the Sereth) a water flow of 66 m³ / s. In the course of the river is the Izvorul Muntelui reservoir , which was built between 1950 and 1960 and covers an area of 33 km².
