Ringerike

Ringerike occupies an inland district of southern Norway, centred on the town of Hønefoss in Buskerud. The Begna River runs through Hønefoss before reaching Tyrifjorden, linking the area’s settled lowlands with broad forest country and lake shores. Agriculture has long shaped the fertile valley floor, while forestry and river-powered industry helped form the town’s identity. The medieval stone church at Norderhov is a notable reminder of the district’s older settlement history. Ringerike also makes a practical base for travelling between Oslo and the uplands of eastern Norway. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Ringerike.
