The Titovka ( Russian Титовка ; Finnish Vaalesjoki ) is the northernmost river in the European part of Russia . It is 83 km long.
Its catchment area of 1320 km² is in the north of the Kola Peninsula in Murmansk Oblast . The Titowka has its origin in the lake Koschkajawr about 20 km southeast of the town of Nikel . It flows in a north-easterly direction and flows into the Motowski Bay of the Barents Sea at Nowaja Titowska . The largest tributary of the Titovka, the Walasjoki (Валас-йоки), drains the lake Kaskeljawr .
A large part of the border between the Pechenga and Kola Rajons runs along the course of the river . Between 1920 and 1944 the Titowka formed the state border between the Soviet Union and Finland , which at that time had access to the Barents Sea with the port of Petsamo (Russian Petschenga ).
