Description
WikipediaTron or Tronfjell is a prominent mountain in Innlandet county, Norway. The 1,665-metre (5,463 ft) tall mountain lies on the border of Alvdal Municipality and Tynset Municipality, but the peak lies entirely in Alvdal Municipality. The mountain lies just to the northeast of the village of Alvdal and just northwest of the village of Tylldalen. There is a toll road to the summit that is open in the summers. The road was built while installing a broadcasting antenna in the 1960s, being Norway's second highest road. The Indian philosopher Swami Sri Ananda Acharya (1883-1945) lived on the mountain for large periods of his life.
