Lommedalen is a rural community in a small valley in Bærum municipality, in the county of Akershus, Norway. The population is about 11000 people. Its name is derived from the river Lomma, which, after joining with Isielva, forms Sandvikselva. Another explanation of the name is by the bird "Lom" (Loon), which used to live in the area. Lommedalen valley opens up at Bærums Verk and runs about 5 kilometers towards north. Lommedalen includes wooded areas, some agricultural land, and residential zones. It includes parts of the forest area Krokskogen. The river Lomma runs through the valley. The lake Burudvannet, which is a popular bathing place, is also located in the area. A forest road from Lommedalen goes to Hole in Buskerud. The pilgrim road to Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim passed through Lommedalen in medieval times and was resurrected in celebration of the 1000th anniversary of Trondheim in 1997. Lommedalen is a popular area for skiing and slalom in winter time and horseback riding in summer time. It is also home to two golf courses, Lommedalen Golf Club and Bærum Golf Club. ==People associated with Lommedalen== * Magnus Carlsen (b. 1990), one of the world's best chess players, grew up in Lommedalen. * Narve Bonna, Norwegian ski jumper. * Thomas Rogne, (b. 1990) Norwegian football (soccer) player who at current time plays for Glasgow Celtic, Scotland.. 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「Lommedalen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
