    National cycle routes

    Are you an experienced cyclist, determined to see Norway with its many fjords and mountains from the seat of your bicycle? In that case, the national cycle routes may be just the thing for you.

      Bike your way across Norway

      Many countries, including Norway, have national cycle routes – a network of long-distance cycling routes meant for those who seek a proper challenge. And when we say long distance, we really mean it. Some of these routes are for adventurers and experienced cyclists only.

      If you’re not in the cycling shape of your life, you can still enjoy parts of a longer route, and though some of the routes are quite demanding, others are shorter and well suited for anyone who can ride a bike.

      The national cycle routes guide you between cities and regions in Norway, avoiding most roads with heavy traffic. You can cycle along fjords, through forests and valleys, and even across mountains. On the way, you can visit exciting cultural and historical sites as well as small towns, scenic locations, and interesting attractions. Bring your fishing rod or eat your way through the local food culture.

      Plan your trip

      If you are tempted to try one of the routes, we recommend that you contact the relevant tourist information offices. They will tell you about the areas that specific route will take you through. Some of the routes are also part of the European cycle route network EuroVelo.

      Not all of the routes are properly signposted yet, so bring a map and study it before you go. You can also get a lot of route information on bikemap.net.

      You can rent bikes and e-bikes all over the country. You can also hire guides, get your luggage transported, find cyclist-friendly accommodation and eateries, and buy cycling packages. Go straight to the bottom of the page for cycling offers.

      Before you hit the road, please note that it’s forbidden to ride your bike in many of Norway’s tunnels. cycletourer.co.uk has a useful map over which Norwegian tunnels you are allowed to cycle through.

      Below, you’ll find the nine National cycle routes. Now, get going! Just remember to always use your helmet.

    • The coastal route

      Svinesund – Kristiansand – Bergen – Trondheim – North Cape – Kirkenes

      Dynamic Variation:

      We recommend that you cross some fjords by alternative transport such as ferries to avoid long detours around each fjord. The route also includes some tunnels.

    • The canal route

      Dynamic Variation:

      Norwegian tunnels

      Before you hit the road, please note that it’s forbidden to ride your bike in many of Norway’s tunnels. cycletourer.co.uk has a useful map over which Norwegian tunnels you are allowed to cycle through.

      Safety on two wheels

      When cycling on the roads in Norway, the same rules and road signs apply to you as to cars and other vehicles:
      • Keep to the right.
      • Give way to those coming from your right.
      • Don’t drink and bike.

      You may cycle on the pavement, but adapt your speed.

      You may not cycle on motorways and dual carriageways.

      Only children under the age of 10 may be carried as passengers.

      Always wear a helmet when cycling. A high visibility vest is a good idea, especially on busy roads.

Note that you’ll have to find alternative transport like train or local buses at some places because of tunnels that aren’t open for cyclists.
