Saltdal

The Saltdalselva and its long valley define much of Saltdal - the river, forests and fertile valley floor have long concentrated settlement, farming and transport in this inland part of Nordland. Rognan, the municipal centre, stands at the head of Saltdalsfjorden, where the broad valley meets the fjord. The E6 and Nordland Line make Saltdal an important north-south route, while mountain country rises towards Saltfjellet and the protected landscapes of Junkerdalen. The area also bears difficult Second World War history: the Blood Road was built here by prisoners under German occupation.
