Budal is a former municipality in the old Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. The 350-square-kilometre (140 sq mi) municipality[3] existed from 1879 until its dissolution in 1964. It encompassed the Bua and Ena river valleys in the south-central part of the what is now Midtre Gauldal municipality in Trøndelag county. The administrative center of Budal was the village of Enodden where Budal Church is located.[4]
