Dovrefjell–Sunndalsfjella National Park ((ノルウェー語:Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella nasjonalpark)) is a National Park in Norway. It was founded in 2002 to replace and enlarge the former Dovrefjell National Park, originally founded in 1974. It occupies 1,693 km² and encompasses areas in three Norwegian counties: Oppland, Sør-Trøndelag, and Møre og Romsdal and includes large parts of the mountain range of Dovrefjell. ==Ecology== The National Park was established to ''- preserve a large, continuous and essentially untouched mountain area,'' ''- preserve an alpine ecosystem with its natural biodiversity,'' ''- preserve an important part of the range of the stocks of wild reindeer in Snøhetta and Knutshø,'' ''- safeguard a variation in habitats, '' ''- preserve the landscape morphology and its distinctive geological deposits, '' ''- protect cultural heritage.'' ''The public do have access to experience the nature through the exercise of the traditional and simple outdoor life, with technical infrastructure only established to a very modest extent.''〔Cited & translated from the regulations of the park〕 In short: To preserve an intact alpine ecosystem with its indigenous wild reindeer. Together with the reindeer in Rondane National Park the last remaining population of wild Fennoscandian reindeer of Beringia origin (other wild Norwegian reindeer are of European origin and have interbred with domesticated reindeer to a various extent), wolverine, and various large birds as golden eagle and gyrfalcon can be seen, and also the recently (1930s) imported (and potentially dangerous) musk oxen. Some of the plant life predates the last ice age. Although it is a harsh environment, the mountains, the highest being Snøhetta at 2,286 m, make for spectacular hiking during the summer and skiing in the winter. Due to rather long walks between mostly unstaffed huts, great areas without huts and trails and harsh and unstable weather conditions, this area is recommended for experienced and well-equipped wanderers only. An unequalled natural attraction in Norway is the 156 m high waterfall down in Åmotan.〔http://www.skandaktiv.de/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=637&Itemid=821〕 It is located at road 70 between Oppdal and Sunndalsøra at the northern border of Dovrefjell–Sunndalsfjella National Park.〔http://midtnorsknatur.no/en/Dovrefjell/Opplev/Naturattraksjoner/Amotan.aspx〕 Coordinate:62°30'36.14" N 9°03'32.26" E 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dovrefjell–Sunndalsfjella National Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
