Breheimen National Park

The landscape of Breheimen National Park extends over 1,671 square kilometers, featuring steep mountains, deep valleys, and numerous glaciers across three municipalities.

The national park, established in 2009, contains archaeological findings including a preserved coat from 300 A.D. discovered in a melted glacier bed.

The park name translates to 'Home of The Glaciers' and contains traditional transhumance farms where livestock graze during summer months.

Visitors can access the park through multiple entry points including Sota, Lundadalen, and Grotli, with nearly 300 kilometers of marked trails throughout.

The Dummdalen valley contains the largest limestone caves in southern Norway, formed through natural water erosion over thousands of years.
