Krøderen (lake)

Krøderen (also Krøderfjorden) is a lake in the municipality of Krødsherad in Buskerud, Norway.

[1] The lake stretches about 41 kilometers (25 mi) north from the village of Krøderen in Krødsherad on its southern end and reaches north to the village of Gulsvik in Flå municipality in the valley of Hallingdal.

[citation needed] At Noresund, along Norwegian National Road 7 (Rv7), there is a bridge over the lake.

Sole Hotel was originally a former doctor's home dating back to the beginning of the 1900s.

This name is probably derived from the verb kryda 'stream/press together' related to Old English crudan 'to press, push'.
