EuroVelo Scandinavia

The EuroVelo cycling network is a vast network of long-distance cycling routes spanning Europe, designed to connect the continent via safe, scenic, and well-maintained paths. Launched by the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF), EuroVelo comprises 17 routes traversing over 90,000 kilometres, passing through diverse landscapes, cultural landmarks, and historical sites.

Here, you will find the main Scandinavian routes, with the exception of parts of Denmark. I have modified some sections in Sweden and can not guarantee the complex accuracy of the routes. Nevertheless, this is a good starting point if you plan to cycle through other Scandinavian countries. A favourite of mine is to cycle from Oslo to Copenhagen on EV12 and then up to Frederikshavn, where a ferry can complete the loop back to Oslo. Three countries on flat coastal roads is a great introduction to Scandinavian culture and life, and it can easily be done in a week or less.

The following routes are mentioned on this map: EV1, EV3, EV7, EV10, EV11, EV12, & EV13

Keep in mind

All cycling routes published on CYCLENORWAY.com are intended as planning resources and sources of inspiration to be used alongside your own research and judgement. Routes are created using careful research, but every cyclist has different abilities, expectations, and risk tolerance. Some routes may include hike-a-bike sections, muddy or wet hiking paths, technical terrain, steep climbs, descents, or remote areas that may not be suitable for everyone. Route data, mapping software, and conditions can also change or contain inaccuracies. Cycling in Norway is generally very safe. Nevertheless, if you choose to ride these routes, you do so at your own risk.
