Embark on an unforgettable self-guided cycling adventure through Norway’s majestic fjords, valleys and mountain passes. Along the route you climb many meters of altitude and are rewarded with fantastic views.

This carefully planned journey combines scenic cycling routes, comfortable hotels, and hassle-free luggage transport, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the region’s natural beauty and rich cultural heritage. 

Begin your trip in Ålesund, renowned for its stunning Art Nouveau architecture and vibrant waterfront. Explore this charming city, climb the iconic Aksla viewpoint for panoramic views, and visit the Saltwater Aquarium before setting off on your cycling adventure.

Ride along the picturesque Hjørundfjorden, where tranquil waters meet the towering peaks of the Sunnmøre Alps. Take a ferry from Sæbø and cycle through the spectacular Norangsdalen Valley. As one of the narrowest valleys in Norway, it is rich in both nature and cultural experiences. 

Experience a scenic fjord cruise into the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord, where you’ll marvel at iconic waterfalls like The Seven Sisters and The Bridal Veil. This is Norway's fjord landscape at its most enchanting. From Geiranger, ascend the dramatic Ørnesvingen (Eagle Road), famous for its hairpin bends and breathtaking views over the fjord. Continue over the mountain pass to Valldal, a charming valley known for its lush strawberry fields and inviting atmosphere.

Bike the iconic Trollstigen mountain pass, where tight turns, cascading waterfalls, and panoramic views create a cycling experience like no other. Arrive in Åndalsnes, the "Mountaineering Capital of Norway," where you’ll stay for two nights to fully explore this outdoor paradise. Discover the many adventures Åndalsnes has to offer, from hiking the famous Romsdalseggen ridge and visiting the Rampestreken viewpoint to riding the spectacular Romsdal Gondola.

You can choose to end your journey with a ride on the Rauma Railway, one of the most scenic train routes in the world. Travel from fjord to mountains, passing dramatic peaks, lush valleys, and beautiful waterfalls.
