The Tour de Dovre is a cycling route that runs between Dombås, Hjerkinn, Folldal, Grimsdalen and Dovre. This scenic trip winds through the three national parks of Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella, Rondane and Dovre. Most of the route is on quiet gravel roads with plenty of sheep and cattle watching you cycle by (and Musk Ox if you’re lucky!). The famous Grimsdalen Valley is the highlight for most people, as it climbs onto alpine pastures with impressive views of the whole region. The route can be cycled in a day, or you can break it into a weekend trip. Accommodation options are plentiful, and a train link between Oslo and Trondheim makes it a popular route.
