Veldre is an area of hills climbing from Brumunddal in Norway. The area is mostly highly productive farmland and pine forest. The top of the Houmbs-høgda offers a splendid view over the Hedemarken district and southern parts of Lake Mjøsa.

Local people describing the area in arts:

Johan Nordhagen (1856–1956) was a well-known graphic artist born in Veldre. His graphic prints are mostly motives from Veldre.

One can debate whether Alf Prøysen came from Veldre, or the neighboring Rudshøgda, but his ties to the district were deeply rooted. His motives grew out of his working-class peasant childhood. His folk tunes are some of the most important contributions to the national heritage.

Guttorm P. Haugen, poet and writer, described the wilderness of the large forests, and the value of natural living, as opposed to life in the city.
