}} Vinjeronden is a mountain in Innlandet county, Norway. It is one of the ten mountains in the Rondane mountain range measuring over in height. The 2044m (6,706feet) mountain is a tri-point that lies on the border of the three municipalities of Dovre, Folldal, and Sel. The mountain Rondeslottet lies immediately to the north, the mountains Storronden and Rondvasshøgde lie to the southeast, and Svartnuten lies to the southwest. The mountain is easily accessed by hiking from the Rondvassbu tourist cabin (run by the Norwegian Mountain Touring Association), on the way from Rondvassbu to Rondeslottet, which is the highest mountain in Rondane.[2] NameThe first part of the mountain name comes from the poet and writer Aasmund Olavsson Vinje. The last part of the name comes from the word Norwegian: rond which was probably the original name of the nearby lake Rondvatnet. Many of the mountains near the lake were then named after this lake. The Old Norse form of the name was Norse, Old: rǫnd which means 'stripe' or 'edge' (referring to the long and narrow form of the lake). See alsoReferences} |
