For more than fifty years people from all over the world have travelled to Morgedal to visit Sondre’s birthplace and learn about this fascinating history of skiing.
Morgedal is a small village centrally located in the county of Telemark, southern Norway. As a part of the municipality of Kviteseid, the village is situated about 200 kilometres or three hour’s drive from the Norwegian capital of Oslo, along highway E 134 between eastern and western Norway.
Morgedal has about 300 inhabitants. Most of them are working in tourism, the service industry or farming. The village has a hotel and other accommodations.
Also located in the village close to Lake Morgedal (423 metres above sea level) is the Norwegian Ski Adventure Centre (Norsk Skieventyr). On the hillside one can find Øverbø, the former cotter’s farm where ski legend Sondre Norheim (1825-1897) was born.
