Oppdal Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

About Oppdal

Oppdal is an alpine community which dates back to the Norwegian Iron Age. It is at a crossroads for traffic from Trondheim, the Dovrefjell mountain range, and Sunndal on the west coast. The main industries in Oppdal today are agriculture, tourism, and some light manufacturing. It has the largest sheep population of any municipality in Norway, with 45,000 head of sheep put out to graze in the mountains every year. Spring is the driest season and summer is the wettest season. The winters are fairly mild, but snowy weather is not that unusual on the 17 May National Day celebrations.
