💡 Good to know
- Musk-ox safaris run on the Dovrefjell — Europe's only wild herd — and Røros' timber streets glow in the long light of the mountain plateau.
- Røros regularly logs Norway's coldest temperatures and looks exactly like the Christmas card it appears on — the winter market in February is the classic visit.
