8. The Telemark canal, from Skien to Dalen

From this suggestion in Telemark, you can choose a hard long route, or an easy short one. The canal boat will take you from Skien in the south all the way up to the Bandaksjøen lake, where you will find the famous Dalen Hotel. This is a good starting point for a more demanding route. If you want an easier route, start at Lunde.

9. Numedal, from Geilo to Kongsberg

The Atlantic Road in Fjord Norway stretches itself across bridges along the dramatically beautiful coast in Western Norway. Visit small fishing villages, the famous Ona lighthouse and the cities of Molde and Kristiansund.
