Agder

Agder is best known within Norway for its long Skagerrak coastline. That maritime identity is balanced by a spacious interior of forests, lakes and upland valleys, where the Otra River runs through Setesdal before reaching the coast at Kristiansand. The county’s southern towns, including Kristiansand, Arendal and Grimstad, have long been shaped by seafaring and trade. Further inland, Setesdal maintains distinctive traditions: its traditional music, dance and singing were inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2019.
