Kuåsen: Velkoia Elgåsen, Ringsaker, Hedmark: Skitrack Elgåsenrunden
Few places in Innlandet have a history as closely tied to the region’s upland farming traditions as Kuåsen. Set close to Lake Åksjøen, this small locality belongs to the broad, wooded interior of southeastern Norway, where open heath and wet ground break up the conifer forest. The terrain is gently rolling rather than dramatic, with low ridges, scattered spruce and pine, and clearings shaped by long-established use of the outfields. This is the cultural landscape associated with seterdrift, Norway’s tradition of moving livestock to summer pastures in the hills. Kuåsen’s character lies in the spacious meeting of managed ground, moorland and forest.

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.
