This tour lets you experience the UNESCO world heritage site of Røros, a unique town in Norwegian history and culture. Founded as a mining town in 1644, the architecture and history of the town is something quite different than what you will see elsewhere in Norway. The World Heritage site Røros, and surrounding landscape include a unique industrial mining town established in 1644, built out of wood and surrounded by a cultural landscape depicting how the copper ore was driven from the mines. The town's placement on top of a mountain plateau, in cold climates with poor growing conditions, created a unique culture, which has been maintained to this day. There are numerous things to do at Røros, from local food experiences, museums, visits to the old copper mines, activities, dog sledding tours, hiking, and skiing.
