Tolga                                                        website : www.tolga.kommune.no

Tolga is a small village, situated between Tynset in the south and Røros in the north. 1755 people live in Tolga. Business here is mostly primary industry, tourism, trade-in-goods and commercial-services. The RV3/RV30 lead to Tolga and you can get here by train. Røros Airport is 33 kilometres away. In the summer months Tolga comes alive with the annual local folk festival Olsok. During the festival you can sample local food, buy local handicraft or place a bid on an antique piece of furniture at the popular auction.
There are two grocery shops, a petrol station, and there is a bank with a 24/7 cash machine (minibank).

Around 1660 Røros Copperworks established a melting hut called "Tolgen". The melting was stopped in 1871.
