Fulufjellet National Park, National park in Trysil Municipality, Norway.
Fulufjellet National Park is a protected area in Trysil Municipality that spreads across mountainous terrain covered in dense coniferous forests. Spruce and pine trees dominate the landscape, growing on steep and rolling hillsides throughout the park.
The park was established in April 2012 as a protected area along the Norway-Sweden border. It connects with the adjacent Swedish Fulufjället National Park, creating a cross-border conservation area.
The protected land contains ancient pine trees reaching 350 years of age on the west side of Brattfjellet, marking generations of forest growth.
Visitors can camp freely within the park and enjoy hiking, skiing, berry picking, or licensed hunting activities. The terrain is open year-round for these pursuits, though seasonal conditions vary based on weather and snowfall.
The park's foundation consists of Trysil Sandstone, a Precambrian rock formation with a distinctive deep red color and high quartz content. This unusual reddish stone coloring is visible in the landscape and sets this park apart geologically from other protected areas in the region.
