Mittådalen

Mittådalen also known as Mittådalens sameby (south-sami: Mïhte),[1][2] is a Sami village in the north west part of Härjedalen, Sweden. It is located between Ljusnedal Härjedalens kommun and Storsjö in Bergs kommun. Mittådalen is one of Sweden's 51 Sami villages. A Sami village is partly a geographical area, and partly an economic area for reindeer working Sami people within the area.[3] Flatruet lies nearby.
