Bergset is the administrative centre of Rendalen Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway. The village is located on the western shore of the river Renaelva, about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) north of the village of Otnes in the largely rural Østerdalen valley. The 1-square-kilometre (250-acre) village has a population (2012) of 243 and a population density of 245 inhabitants per square kilometre (630/sq mi).
Bergset was also the administrative centre of the former municipality of Øvre Rendal which is now a part of Rendalen. Øvre Rendal Church, built in 1761, is located in Bergset. The Rendalen Village Museum in Bergset contains a collection relating to the author Jacob Breda Bull (1853–1930), who was a resident of Rendalen. Bull was buried in the nearby Ytre Rendal Church.
