THE DEADLIEST LANDSLIDE IN NORWEGIAN HISTORY
Just north of Stiklestad you can today see the remains of the deadliest landslide in Norway’s history; The Verdal landslide. On the night of 19th May 1893, 55 million cubic meters of clay flooded the entire Verdal. 3 km² disappeared in the clay masses, 105 farms, thousands of animals and 116 people perished in the slide. A monolith has been erected to commemorate what happened.
THE VÆRDALSKE FORTIFICATIONS
The defense facility The Værdalske Fortifications was completed in 1911 and consists of two mountain galleries, Southern and Northern Gallery, which are blasted into the mountains on either side of the river Inna. From the early 1990s, extensive work by volunteers have made it possible to make the fortresses available to the public.

Several unique period stone vaults and bridges have also been preserved, including Kong Karl Johan’s Klev. At one point the road crosses the road Fv 72. The road surface is mainly gravel and grass. The road is today a widely used walking route.
