L'Explorateur du Sud

This extensive route spanning from Oslo to Stavanger prioritizes gravel roads, providing an alternative to the coastal roads in the south. Expect a demanding journey, traversing hilly and varied terrain through farmland and forests. To navigate this route, you’ll need a bikepacking setup, as some sections feature single tracks and require one or two short hike-a-bike sections. The last stretch towards Stavanger transitions to paved roads, as gravel roads become scarce. Overall, this route offers a challenging yet immensely gratifying experience that few cyclists will undertake.
