Entering Fjord Country

Some may underestimate this route. The climate, terrain, and dialects change the further west or east you head. It’s a route full of surprises—some good and some not-so-good! The route is mainly signposted, but navigating certain sections can be tricky. If you wish, you can skip sections with the help of the train or boat, and if you decide to cycle it all, give yourself more time than you think.

Some of Norway’s best beaches are located south of Stavanger, and you should certainly plan a break at one on a nice day. The coastline and fjords you pass are pretty spectacular heading north of Stavanger, and possible detours should be considered. However, perhaps the most significant highlights are the cities of Stavanger and Bergen. They both have their own charm and break up the long journey for those who enjoy a bit of urban exploring.
