Norway's most awesome bike ride!

Day 1Arrival Dombås - Åndalsnes

Meet up in Dombås at 12:00. We will eat a light lunch together before taking a final check of the bikes and setting course towards Åndalsnes. We cycle through beautiful Romsdalen, surrounded by mountain peaks. The first part of the stage is on flat terrain, before it eventually slopes downwards towards the fjord. There may be some traffic along the road, so we keep a good distance and cycle as a group.

Once arrived in Åndalsnes, we check into the hotel and get a much-needed shower. Here you will have time to stroll around Åndalsnes on your own, before we gather for a well-deserved dinner in the hotel restaurant.

Day 2Åndalsnes - Trollstigen - Geiranger

Today, the tour's most iconic climb awaits – the famous Trollstigen itself!
After a few quiet kilometers on flat ground, the climb up the famous hairpin bends begins. The feeling of reaching the top, along with the fantastic view (weather permitting), makes the steep climb well worth it.

From the top, a well-deserved descent awaits down to Valldal, with a stop at the spectacular Gudbrandsjuvet gorge.

After a good lunch, we take a short ferry trip across the Storfjord to Eidsdal. From there, we cycle further up to the famous viewpoint Ørnesvingen (The Eagle's Bend), with postcard views over Geiranger and the Geirangerfjord.

The final part goes downhill to Geiranger, where we check into the cozy Hotell Utsikten.

The evening concludes with a good dinner in the hotel's own restaurant.

Day 3Geiranger - Dalsnibba - Lom - Elveseter

Today's stage is long, but passes through a fantastic landscape like something straight out of a fairy tale.
We start early with a good breakfast at the hotel, before packing the support vehicle and getting ready for today's challenge: approx. 20 km uphill with 1,500 meters of elevation gain – all the way up to the spectacular viewpoint Dalsnibba.

From the top, it is mostly downhill, through magnificent surroundings all the way towards Lom and further to Elveseter, where we will spend the night. The views along the way make every single kilometer worth the effort!

If desired, you can take the support car up to Dalsnibba and cycle on from there.

Once arrived at the hotel, a refreshing shower and a well-deserved dinner await, made from local ingredients. A perfect end to a tiring but unforgettable day on the bike!

Day 4Elveseter - Sognefjellet - Turtagrø

After yesterday's long stage, we start calmly with a proper breakfast. Today there is no rush – we have a short day ahead of us, with just over 40 km in the saddle. At approximately 10:00, we roll off towards Sognefjellet, Norway's highest mountain pass.

The climb is long, but the landscape makes it a pleasure all the way. At the top, we take a well-deserved coffee break before setting off downhill to Turtagrø, right in the heart of Jotunheimen.

At the historic mountain cabin Turtagrø, we get served lunch before checking in. For those who wish to stretch their legs more, there are great opportunities for a short afternoon hike in the mountains before the day concludes with a joint dinner.

Day 5Turtagrø - Tindevegen - Tusenmetern - Tyinholmen Mountain Lodge

Today's stage goes along the famous Tindevegen road, which winds its way into Jotunheimen. Here you can look forward to many stops with magical views! The first 10 kilometers climb gently, before we get a long and fun descent to Øvre Årdal. Here we take a lunch break – in the heart of one of Norway's most charming fjord towns.

After a good lunch, we start on the 1000-meter road (Tusenmetern). An epic climb from fjord level to over 1000 meters above sea level in about 15 km. The road winds in steep hairpin turns up through dramatic mountains, with fantastic views. One of the rawest cycling climbs in Norway.

After lunch, we cycle up spectacular mountain roads towards Tyinholmen. Along the way, we get views of Hurrungane, Utladalen, and Bøttejuvet – genuine Norwegian mountain nature at its best!

The road can be demanding, and if you have a road bike, you might have to push your bike parts of the way. However, we try to cycle as much as we can of the 30 kilometers.

At Tyinkrysset, we turn off towards Tyinholmen Mountain Lodge, where we will spend the night. A delicious dinner awaits here, and the day rounds off with good stories around the table.

Day 6Boat trip from Eidsbugarden - Melkeveien - Vinstra

We start the day with a good and relaxed breakfast, before loading the bikes on board MS Bitihorn and casting off towards Bygdin. The trip takes about 2 hours, and along the way, we enjoy the view while eating the packed lunch we prepared at breakfast.

Upon arrival at Bygdin Mountain Hotel, today's cycling stage starts. Surrounded by mountains and lakes, we cycle along parts of the spectacular Valdresfløya, on the famous gravel road "Melkeveien" (The Milk Road) – a beautiful finishing touch to an eventful week.

We eventually roll down towards Skåbu and Vinstra, where the tour ends. Here, pizza and an opportunity to freshen up before heading home await.

The itinerary is preliminary; changes may occur.
