The Tvertsa ({{Lang-ru|Тверца}}) is a river in Vyshnevolotsky, Spirovsky, Torzhoksky, and Kalininsky Districts, as well as in the cities of Torzhok and Tver in Tver Oblast, Russia, a left tributary of the Volga River. It is {{convert|188|km|mi}} long, and the area of its basin {{convert|6510|km2|sqmi}}. The principal tributaries of the Tvertsa are the Tigma River (left), the Shchegrinka River (right), the Osuga River (right), the Logovyazh River (left), and the Kava River (left).[1]

The Starotveretsky Canal, which is {{convert|2.9|km|mi}} long and a part of the Vyshny Volochyok Waterway, is considered Tvertsa's riverhead, which connects the river with the Vyshny Volochyok Reservoir. The latter drains up to 80 percent of its water from the Tsna River into the Tvertsa. The Tvertsa flows south, crosses the western part of Spirovsky District, and south of Torzhok turns east. There, the river enters Kalininsky District and flows towards the city of Tver. In the northern outskirts of the city, the Tvertsa turns south. Its mouth is located in the city center of Tver. The Tvertsa River freezes up in November through early January and stays under the ice until late March or April.

The towns of Torzhok and Vyshny Volochyok are located on the Tvertsa River. The city of Tver is located at its confluece with the Volga. Historically, the Tvertsa since the Middle Ages has been a part of a waterway connecting the Baltic Sea and the Volga, which run along the Neva, the Volkhov, and the Msta Rivers.[2]

The drainage basin of the Tvertsa includes the southwestern part of Vyshnevolotsky District, the western parts of Spirovsky and Likhoslavlsky Districts, the major part of Torzhoksky District, the eastern part of Kuvshinovsky District, and the northwestern part of Kalininsky District, all of Tver Oblast, as well as the town of Torzhok and parts of the cities of Vyshny Volochyok and Tver.
