Oppdal

Among the towns of Trøndelag, Oppdal stands out for its position in the broad Drivdalen valley, where the Driva River runs between the Dovrefjell and Trollheimen mountain areas. It is one of Norway’s established mountain centres, with skiing and hiking closely tied to the surrounding highland terrain. South of town, Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park protects alpine habitats and is known for its wild musk oxen, descendants of animals reintroduced in the 20th century. The Dovre Line railway links Oppdal with Oslo and Trondheim, while the historic Pilgrim’s Route to Nidaros passes through the district.
