Mevassetra above the Trondheim Fjord
Mountain farm culture, animals and highland landscape in Indre Fosen – near Munkstigen, Trondheim and Hindrum Fjordsenter
Mountain farm culture above the Trondheim Fjord
Mevassetra lies by Lake Mevatnet, in the highland landscape above the Trondheim Fjord in Indre Fosen. From the farm, there are wide views across Trøndelag, with trails, meadows and nature that offer a quiet encounter with local mountain culture on Fosen, with Trondheim visible across the fjord.
For guests at Hindrum Fjordsenter, Mevassetra can be a natural part of a day trip in the area. The visit can also be combined with Munkstigen via ferrata , where climbing, a mountain hike, local food and farm culture can all be part of the same outing.
Animals, local food and traces of farm life
Mevassetra was part of an active summer farming tradition by Lake Mevatnet until 1948, producing goat cheese, butter, milk and soured cream. Today the farm retains its shelter, summer barn and production building with overnight accommodation, continuing something of the simple and practical culture that defined summer farm life.
At the farm you will meet sheep, lambs, cows, rabbits, hens and chicks. Traditional farm food is served according to what the dairymaid has available, often with local produce and coffee from Langøra Kaffebrenneri. The visit suits families, groups and guests who want a quiet cultural experience in Trøndelag, with respect for the animals, the landscape and the history that has shaped this place.
