It starts at Maridalsvannet in Oslomarka, and follows the urban areas Nordre Aker, Sagene, Grünerløkka, Oslo centre and Grønland, whereby it finally ends at Paulsenkaien and Oset in Bjørvika. The river is considered to be a part of the Nordmarkvassdraget, and has the watercourse number 006.Z. The entire river is about 8.2 kilometres long, and has a difference in elevation between source and mouth of approximately 149 metres .
Akerselven is "Oslo’s green lung”; many parks and nature trails are found by its path, from Grønland to Maridalsvannet. Salmon run and spawn in the upper part of the river.
