Hodalen

Hodalen chapel

Hodalen is a small village in Tolga, Hedmark. The village lies 14 km south-east of the centre of the municipality, the town station at Tolga, along riksvei 26 between Tolga and Drevsjø.

The Hola water course begins at lake Nordersjøen (762 m above sea level) running southeast through Drengen, Asmaren, Stikkilen and Storsjøen.

Hodalen chapel was built in 1936.

In the 18th century there were trials between the village and farmers from Tynset concerning fishing rights in the lakes.

North of the village towers Håmmålsfjellet (Hummelfjellet), and south of the valley lies the mountain range of Raudsjøheimen including Tynset and Brydalen.
