Finnskogen

Finnskogen ("Forest of the Finns") is an area of Norway situated in the county of Hedmark, named so because of immigration of Finnish people in the 17th century, the so-called Skogfinner/"Forest Finns". The core area of Finnskogen lies in the eastern part of a small region known as Solør, on the border with Sweden. It consists of a forested belt of land, about 32 km wide. It is adjacent to the Swedish region with similar Finnish immigration, named Finnskogarna.

Located at 60.6667, 12.4167 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
