Hovden is a mountain village and ski resort located in the Setesdal region of southern Norway. Situated at an elevation of approximately 800 meters above sea level, it is the highest settlement in the Agder county. The area is known for its winter sports facilities, including cross-country skiing trails and downhill slopes, which have been attracting visitors since the early 20th century.

The village also serves as a gateway to the Setesdal Vesthei-Ryfylkeheiane landscape protection area, a vast wilderness known for its cultural heritage and pristine nature. Throughout history, Hovden has been significant for its mining activity, particularly iron ore, and remnants of this industrial past can still be found in the area.

The local culture is influenced by traditional Norwegian mountain life, with elements of the unique Setesdal folk culture still visible in architecture and local customs.
