Rihpojávri or Riehppejávri is a lake which lies in Storfjord Municipality in Troms og Finnmark county, Norway, just to the south of European route E8. The lake is a reservoir that has a dam on the north end. The water leaving the lake flows into the Rihpojohk river which then flows into the Skibotnelva.[1]
