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.
