Like Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella and Rondane, Dovre national park hosts wild Fennoscandian reindeer of Beringia origin.

Part of the reason for the existence of these three adjacent parks is to provide a large contiguous habitat area for the native wild reindeer population.

From the oldest times has Dovrefjell been the border region between the northern and southern parts of Norway, and the road over the mountain was well known.

Norwegian sites are promoting natural destinations on the world market in order to attract more tourists and thus increase the benefits of tourism in the country.

However, Norway pays a lot of attention to nature and is looking for ways to achieve sustainable tourism.
