National Cycle Routes

Norway’s national cycle routes are a great starting point when deciding where to cycle in the country. The long-distance routes span the whole country, meaning you can see all of what Norway has to offer on two wheels. But you don’t have to cycle a whole route. It’s easy to cycle a section and use public transport to cut it short. If you’re looking to cycle more than one route, many join up with each other allowing you to extend your journey without using other means of transport.
