Blåfjella-Skjækerfjella National Park (Låarte-Skæhkere vaarjelimmiedajve in the South Sami language) is the 4th largest national park in Norway, located in the east in Trøndelag county, along the border to Sweden. The area was protected on the 17th of December 2004 to protect mountainous areas with ancient forests and varied wildlife. It covers 1 924 square kilometers. Lierne National Park was opened the same day, to the north east. 

Hiking, fishing and hunting in the national park:

The park has little to no marked trails, but is excellent for wilderness hiking, trout or char fishing and hunting. You need a fishing or hunting license to participate in such activities. Berrypicking is free for everyone.

We recommend experiencing the national park by hiking to the National Park Monument Stone,. Contact Lierne National Park Visitors Centre for more information.
