Børgefjell National Park

The park spreads across 1,477 square kilometers of granite peaks, birch valleys, marshlands, and lakes between Trøndelag and Nordland counties, bordering Sweden.

Established in 1963, Børgefjell National Park underwent two major expansions in 1973 and 2003, incorporating lands from Hattfjelldal, Grane, Namsskogan, and Røyrvik municipalities.

The indigenous Sami people maintain their traditional reindeer herding practices within the park boundaries, continuing a tradition that spans over five centuries.

Visitors can access the park through the village of Røyrvik, with boat services from the harbor transporting hikers to the Storforsen trailhead.

The park contains Kvigtinden, reaching 1,699 meters, and Jetnamsklumpen at 1,513 meters, which stands as the highest mountain in Trøndelag county.
