The Undiscovered Norway

Known as the wilderness route, this is certainly a part of Norway that few people get to experience. Ride from Halden in the South East of Norway near the Swedish border all the way to the historical city of Trondheim. The route is a dream for those who love to explore remote nature. Along the route, there are many shelters and cabins that are free and open for anyone to use. Some are part of the route, others require a small detour, but if you prefer to pitch a tent or sleep under the stars there is no shortage of great places to wild camp.

You will find that the route follows compacted gravel and paved roads with very little traffic – sometimes you will not see a car for hours. With only the sound of your own breath, the tires rolling over gravel and the wind whispering through the trees – this is bikepacking at its finest.
