WelCome to Namdalen!

When visiting the Namdalen/Nååmesjevuemie region you will feel the impact of nature: From the mighty mountains in the east, via forests, heaths, and the river valley with the very best of salmon angling, to the archipelago and Atlantic Ocean in the west.

But Namdalen is so much more than nature: Here you will find authentic, locally produced food. Entertaining cultural events and museums. And a warm community.
