thumb|Sokna thumb|Strømsoddbygde Chapel Sokna is a small village located between Hønefoss and Krøderen in the municipality of Ringerike, in the county of Buskerud, Norway. Its population is 543.
==Location== Sokna is located in the valley of Soknedalen, between the Sogna and Verkenselva rivers. Sogna is a small river that starts at the end of Lake Sognevannet in Strømsoddbygda at the top of the valley of Sokndalen and empties into Tyrifjorden. The Verkenselva flows into the Sogna just southeast of Sokna. Norwegian National Road 7 (RV 7) runs through the village, as does the Bergen Line which extends between Hønefoss and Hallingdal, although rail trains no longer stop at Sokna.
