The airport around 1925; The Stjørdalselva still flows around the east-west runway

The 50 km long river is created near Meråker by the confluence of its source rivers Dalåa and Torsbjørka . It flows through the Stjørdal in a westerly direction and takes in the tributaries Sona , Funna and Forra .

At Stjørdal , immediately south of Trondheim Airport, the river flows into the Trondheimsfjord or its eastern branch, Stjørdalsfjord . The estuary was relocated in 1961 so that the airport runway could be extended into the fjord.

The European route 14 runs in the valley of the river.
