Tron (sometimes spelled Tronden, Tronfjell, or Trondfjell)[2] is a prominent mountain in Innlandet county, Norway.
The 1,665-metre (5,463 ft) tall mountain lies on the border of Alvdal and Tynset municipalities, but the peak lies entirely in Alvdal.
[3] There is a toll road to the summit that is open in the summers.
[1] The Indian philosopher Swami Sri Ananda Acharya (1883-1945) lived on the mountain for large periods of his life.
[3] The name Tron is the finite form of the word trond (Old Norse: þróndr) which means 'hog' (it is common in Norway to compare the shape of a mountain with an animal).
