Lørenfallet

We are now passing Lørenfallet, a small settlement with a story reflected in its name. Originally, the place was called Løren, derived from leire (clay) and vin (meadow or field) – meaning “the clay plain.” The name changed after a major landslide in 1794, after which the area became known as Lørenfallet, referencing the dramatic event. Today, Lørenfallet is a quiet local community with practical services for everyday life. Here you’ll find a veterinary clinic for your four-legged friends – an important resource for many residents. Nearby is also Meierigaarden, a popular restaurant and event venue for dinners, celebrations and social gatherings. From here, Olbergåsen is just about a 10-minute drive away. A small place – with a history that still leaves its mark.
