Farris
Lake in Vestfold, Norway
Farris is a lake on the border of Telemark and Vestfold counties in Norway. The 20-kilometre (12 mi) long freshwater moraine-dammed lake is located mostly in Larvik Municipality in Vestfold county, but the northwestern part of the lake is located in Siljan Municipality and Porsgrunn Municipality in Telemark county. The large town of Larvik is located at the southern end of the lake.
The 21-square-kilometre (8.1 sq mi) lake would have been part of the saltwater Larviksfjorden, had it not been dammed by an end moraine left by the latest ice age.
