The Shosha ( Russian Шоша ) is a 163 km long right tributary of the Volga in the Tver and Moscow oblasts in the European part of Russia .
description
The Shosha rises about 2 km southeast of the village of Shosha in the southeast of Tver Oblast, not far from the border with Moscow Oblast, and only a few hundred meters from the M9 highway. From there it flows in primarily northern and northwestern directions through the densely populated border region of the Tver and Moscow oblasts.
Before the confluence of the Shabnja , the river turns to the northeast, but changes its direction of flow again shortly before reaching the border with Moscow Oblast in western and northwestern directions, a little later in northern directions. After the confluence of the Schidochowka , the Schoscha changes again in northeast and east directions. At the village of Rechki, the Shosha reaches Moscow Oblast and now forms the border between the Tver Oblast and Moscow for several kilometers, interrupted several times by stretches in which it flows completely into just one oblast. It now maintains the eastern direction of flow and finally reaches the Volga dammed up to the Ivankowoer reservoir near Redkino , about 20 km southeast of Tver .
The Shosha begins to freeze over from late November to early January, and the ice breaks from late March to mid-April. The river is very popular with anglers , including chub , bream , aland and roach .
