== Attractions == [[File:Numedal.jpg|left|thumb|A welcome sign to Numedal]] [[File:Numedalslågen.jpg|thumb|Numedalslågen in Numedal]] The area along the Numedalslågen from [[Flesberg]] up to the [[Hardangervidda]] through the valley has a large number of examples of [[Medieval Scandinavian architecture]]. There are still over 40 historic timber buildings and four [[stave churches]]: [[Flesberg Stave Church]], [[Rollag Stave Church]], [[Nore Stave Church]] and [[Uvdal Stave Church]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.visitnorway.com/us/where-to-go-us/east/numedal/what-to-do-in-numedal/attractions/ |title=Attractions in Numedal |website=visitnorway.com |access-date=28 June 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150701065902/http://www.visitnorway.com/us/where-to-go-us/east/numedal/what-to-do-in-numedal/attractions/ |archive-date=1 July 2015 |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.visitnorway.com/us/about-norway/history/stave-churches/ |title=Stave churches |website=visitnorway.com |access-date=8 July 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150710014442/http://www.visitnorway.com/us/about-norway/history/stave-churches/ |archive-date=10 July 2015 |url-status=live}}</ref> Numedal was also the location of one of the "Nordmann's trails" (''Nordmannsslepene''), which were the old main roads between east and west over [[Hardangervidda]].
