Coordinates: Frosta, the smallest municipality in the county of Nord-Trøndelag, Norway, is located in the middle of the Trondheimsfjord, on a peninsula just north of Trondheim.

Norway's oldest court, Frostating, had its seat here, close to the mediaeval church at Logtun. On the island of Tautra can be found the remains of a Cistercian abbey, established in 1207. Several rock engraving sites can be found in the parish, together with burial mounds from Viking times.

Agriculture makes up the largest business in Frosta.
