==General information==
The municipality of Malvik was established in 1891 when it was separated from the large [[Strinda Municipality]]. On 1 January 1914, a small area of the neighboring [[Lånke Municipality]] (population: 38) was transferred to Malvik Municipality. On 1 July 1953, a small area of Malvik Municipality (population: 37) was transferred to the neighboring [[Strinda Municipality]].<ref name="Dag">{{Cite web |last=Jukvam |first=Dag |year=1999 |title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen |url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf |publisher=[[Statistics Norway|Statistisk sentralbyrå]] |language=no |isbn=9788253746845}}</ref>

On 1 January 2018, the municipality switched from the old [[Sør-Trøndelag]] county to the new [[Trøndelag]] county.

===Name===
The municipality (originally the [[prestegjeld|parish]]) is named after the old ''Malvik'' farm ({{langx|non|Manvík}}) since the first [[Malvik Church]] was built there. The first element is {{lang|non|mǫn}} ([[word stem|stem form]] ''man-'') which means "[[mane (horse)|mane]]", referring to a mountain ridge behind the farm. (''Mana'' which means "the mane" is a common name for many mountains in Norway, where the form of the mountain is compared with the mane of a horse.) The last element is {{lang|non|vík}} which means "[[inlet]]".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |author-link=Oluf Rygh |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AGxBAAAAIAAJ |title=Norske gaardnavne: Søndre Trondhjems amt |publisher=W. C. Fabritius & sønners bogtrikkeri |year=1901 |edition=14 |location=Kristiania, Norge |pages=356 |language=no}}</ref>

===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 23 July 1982. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Or (heraldry)|Or]], a grouse [[Attitude (heraldry)#Attitudes of birds|close]] [[Sable (heraldry)|sable]]"'' ({{langx|no|I gull en svart tiur}}). This means the arms have a [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) that has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a [[western capercaillie]], a local type of [[grouse]] and one of the largest of the local forest birds in the area. The design was chosen to symbolize the rich nature in the area. The arms were designed by Stein Davidsen after an idea by Lorentz Svingen.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Malvik |access-date=2023-02-14 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Malvik, South Trøndelag (Norway) |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-16-63.html |access-date=2023-02-14 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=1982-10-04 |title=Godkjenning av våpen og flagg |url=https://lovdata.no/dokument/LF/forskrift/1982-07-23-1249 |access-date=2023-02-14 |website=Lovdata.no |publisher=Norges kommunal- og arbeidsdepartementet |language=no}}</ref>

==Geography==
Malvik Municipality is located to the east of the city of [[Trondheim (city)|Trondheim]], one of Norway's largest cities. Many people in Malvik have their place of employment in Trondheim, though there is some local industry in Malvik itself.

The northern part of Malvik lies along the [[Trondheimsfjord]], and it is along this coastal section that the vast majority of the population lives, and where schools, and places of employment are located. The municipal center is [[Hommelvik]], situated about {{convert|25|km}} east of Trondheim, and it has long been the main population area in Malvik. In the last few decades the area around [[Vikhammer]] and [[Hundhammeren]] (about {{convert|10|km|disp=or}} to the west) has grown larger than Hommelvik. The area has many new housing areas, businesses, and shopping. Collectively, the new area is referred to as the Malvik urban area.<ref name="ssb" />

The southern part of the municipality consists mostly of [[farming]] and [[forest]] areas, with many attractive areas for hiking and cross-country skiing. The [[Homla]] river runs north to the [[Trondheimsfjord]]. The lake [[Jonsvatnet]] lies on the western border of the municipality. The highest point in the municipality is the {{convert|624.34|m|adj=on}} tall mountain Baklipynten, located on the border with [[Selbu Municipality]].<ref name="elev" />

In the southeastern part of Malvik there is the Jøsås [[exclave]]s. Three farmsteads, ''Øvre Jøsås'', ''Store Jøsås'', and ''Lille Jøsås'' belonging to Malvik Municipality are exclaved inside [[Stjørdal Municipality]] in two different exclaves. ''Øvre Jøsås'' and ''Store Jøsås'' are located in one exclave (the western one) while ''Lille Jøsås'' is making another exclave (the eastern one). The exclaves only have road access to Malvik Municipality even though they are inside Stjørdal Municipality's borders. The distance between the two exclaves is very small, only about {{convert|8|m}} at the nearest.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Jan S. Krogh |title=Domestic enclaves/exclaves of Norway |url=http://geosite.jankrogh.com/borders/no_exclaves.htm |access-date=2011-03-11}}</ref>

==Government==
Malvik Municipality is responsible for [[primary education]] (through 10th grade), outpatient [[Health care|health services]], [[old age|senior citizen]] services, [[welfare spending|welfare]] and other [[Social work|social services]], [[zoning]], [[economic development]], and municipal [[road]]s and utilities. The municipality is governed by a [[Municipal council (Norway)|municipal council]] of [[Direct election|directly elected]] representatives. The [[mayor]] is [[Indirect election|indirectly elected]] by a vote of the municipal council.<ref name="ks">{{Cite SNL|kommunestyre| kommunestyre|2024-12-31|Hansen|Tore|2024-11-25|editor2-last=Vabo |editor2-first=Signy Irene}}</ref> The municipality is under the jurisdiction of the [[Trøndelag District Court]] and the [[Frostating Court of Appeal]].

===Municipal council===
The [[Municipal council (Norway)|municipal council]] ({{lang|no|Kommunestyre}}) of Malvik is made up of 31 representatives that are elected to four year terms. The tables below show the current and historical composition of the council by political [[Political party|party]].

==Transportation==
[[File:Map Gjevingåsen.JPG|thumb|350px|Map of the tunnels from Malvik to Stjørdal]]
To the east of Malvik is [[Stjørdal Municipality]], which includes [[Trondheim Airport, Værnes]]. The airport has frequent connections to many locations in Norway, and a growing range of direct air links abroad (currently including [[London]], [[Amsterdam]], [[Copenhagen]], [[Stockholm]], and [[Prague]]). The proximity of this airport means that Malvik, though a small community in a relatively isolated location, has rather good transport connections very close at hand. The [[European route E6]] highway runs through Malvik and it has several tunnels, the longest of which is the [[Hell Tunnel]].

The [[Nordland Line]] runs from Trondheim to [[Bodø (town)|Bodø]] (further north in Norway) and the [[Meråker Line]] runs east to [[Sweden]]. The railroad winds its way along the coast of the Trondheimsfjord in Malvik, and is a very scenic and pleasant journey{{Citation needed|date=April 2011}}. Malvik has two railway stations: [[Vikhammer Station]] and [[Hommelvik Station]]. The [[Gevingåsen Tunnel]] is being built to shorten the rail trip from Trondheim to Stjørdal. A side effect of this is that the scenic attractiveness of the trip will be somewhat reduced, as part of the section along the fjord will no longer form part of the trip. The railway junction where the line splits for Bodø or Sweden is just to the east of Malvik, at a small settlement called [[Hell, Norway|Hell]]. The station is well known to railway enthusiasts from its odd name (for [[English language]] speakers). It is indeed possible, in Malvik, to purchase "a single ticket to Hell" or a return "to Hell and back".
