Numedal is the Westernmost valley in South-Eastern Norway. Numedal, running mainly North-South, extends from Kongsberg in the South to Rødberg in the North. The river Numedalslågen, Norway's third longest, flows through Numedal before emptying into the Outer Oslofjord at Larvik. Numedal is situated within the county of Buskerud, and contains the municipalities of Flesberg, Rollag and Nore og Uvdal. As of 1 July 2004 the population of Numedal was 6,631, but the population has been consistently decreasing because of emmigration and low birth rates.
