Das Beste in Oppdal

Oppdal Essentials

Oppdal serves as the gateway to the Dovrefjell and Trollheimen mountain ranges, characterized by rugged peaks and deep glacial valleys. This selection features the 2,286-meter Snøhetta peak and the dramatic potholes of Magalaupet, carved by the Driva River. Cultural landmarks include the 17th-century Oppdal Church and Kongsvold Fjeldstue, a historic coaching inn on the pilgrim path. The area is also home to Northern Europe’s oldest alpine botanical garden, showcasing rare high-altitude flora like the Dovre poppy.
