Julussdalen

Julussdalen is a small valley in Innlandet county, Norway. The valley runs through the municipalities of Elverum and Åmot as it follows the river Julussa, about 15 km east of the village of Rena. There are scattered settlements in the valley, especially in the lower part in Elverum. Julussdalen has many historic farms with cabins, mills, and mountain pastures.

Geography
The river Julussa flows through the valley, starting from Bergesjøen which is at an elevation of 318 m above sea level, and ending as the Julussa flows into the large river Glomma. Julussdalen was very important for timber out of the big forests, dating from around the mid-16th century.

Etymology
Julussdalen is named after the river Julussa. The first part of the name "Juluss" is most likely derived from a Norwegian dialect word that means "silent", and the last part "dalen" is the Norwegian word for "valley". Julussdalen means most likely "the quiet valley" or "the valley of silence".
