Hegra is a village in the municipality of Stjørdal in Trøndelag county, Norway. The village is located in the Stjørdalen valley, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) east of the town of Stjørdalshalsen along the Stjørdalselva river and it is therefore a good site for fishing. The 0.41-square-kilometre (100-acre) village has a population (2018) of 524 and a population density of 1,278 inhabitants per square kilometre (3,310/sq mi).[1]
The village is served by the unmanned Hegra Station on the Meråker Line. The European route E14 highway also runs through the village, just south of Hegra Church. Hegra has its own grocery store, gas station, kindergarten, school and a local bank. Hegra is also one of the centers for the resurgence of the Dole Gudbrandsdal horse in Norway.
