Innlandet

Norway's only landlocked county, home to alpine national parks, an Olympic town and Norway's largest lake.

Innlandet lies in inland eastern Norway and was formed by merging the former Hedmark and Oppland counties. It is home to Mjøsa, Norway's largest lake, and on its shores Lillehammer, host of the 1994 Winter Olympics, where you can visit the Maihaugen Open-Air Museum. Jotunheimen National Park contains Norway's highest peaks, and Rondane National Park is ideal for hiking and spotting wild reindeer. It is a ski destination in winter and a good base for alpine hiking in summer. Take a train north from Oslo or Gardermoen Airport.
