Sundet: Sundbakken - Kåsa

The uplands around Røros define the setting of Sundet — open highland terrain and conifer woodland place this small locality in Trøndelag’s inland border country. Sundet lies close to Røros, where copper mining began in 1644 and shaped one of Norway’s most distinctive industrial communities. Røros Mining Town and the Circumference, the cultural landscape linked to the former mines, are inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Timber buildings and mining-era structures give nearby Røros a character unlike that of Norway’s coastal cities. Browse nearby webcams to see how Sundet belongs to the broader Røros area.

Trøndelag occupies a broad coastal and inland region in central Norway. Trondheim Fjord reaches deep into the land, linking farming districts, wooded hills and settlements around Trondheim, the region’s historic and cultural centre. The city was an important medieval pilgrimage destination and is home to Nidaros Cathedral, Norway’s national sanctuary and one of the country’s foremost Gothic monuments. Farther inland, valleys and upland areas lead towards the Scandinavian Mountains, while the coast breaks into islands, channels and sheltered bays.

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
