Byflaten or Veldre is a village in Ringsaker Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway.

The higher points in Veldre offer a splendid view over the Hedemarken district and southern parts of the lake Mjøsa.

Johan Nordhagen (1856–1956) was a well-known graphic artist born in Veldre.

One can debate whether Alf Prøysen came from Veldre, or the neighboring Rudshøgda, but his ties to the district were deeply rooted.

Guttorm P. Haugen, poet and writer, described the wilderness of the large forests, and the value of natural living, as opposed to life in the city.
