Trøndelag

The third largest county in Norway extends over 42,202 square kilometers, encompassing numerous fjords, mountains, valleys, and agricultural lands along the Trondheimsfjord.

Established in 1687 as Trondhjem County, Trøndelag divided into Nord-Trøndelag and Sør-Trøndelag in 1804 before reuniting through a regional vote in 2018.

The region produces traditional Norwegian dishes including sodd, a meat-based soup, and karsk, a beverage combining coffee with local spirits.

Trøndelag maintains extensive transportation networks through the Nordland Railway and highways, connecting northern Norway with southern regions via the Namdalen valley.

The county generates ten percent of Norway's agricultural output, specializing in meat and dairy production from Grey Troender sheep and Sided Troender cattle breeds.
