Storligrenda: Storsalen

About location

Storligrenda has served as a farming settlement in the Storlidalen valley of Trøndelag since the era of traditional mountain agriculture. Its scattered holdings are part of Oppdal municipality, where grassland, birch woodland and dry-stone boundary walls reflect the practical use of a high inland valley. Storsalen rises above this rural district as a 1,847-metre mountain, its broad slopes forming part of the upland country around Storlidalen. The valley is associated with Norway’s tradition of summer grazing, which complemented work on permanent farms for generations. Rather than an urban destination, Storligrenda conveys the working character of central Norway’s mountain valleys and the close relationship between cultivated fields and higher terrain.
