Hike the historic King`s Road on Filefjell - a journey through rich history and breathtaking nature. Ancient mountain paths, the iconic Borgund Stave Church, local cuisine and comfortable accommodations.
Embark on an unforgettable self-guided hiking journey on one of Norway’s most scenic and culturally rich routes. The renowned King’s Road over Filefjell, built in the 1790s, was the first carriage road connecting Eastern Norway to Western Norway, linking Oslo and Bergen. This legendary path, which once connected ancient settlements, offers stunning views, rugged terrain, and a deep connection to Norwegian history.
Today, the King’s Road stands as a testament to Norway's rich history and engineering ingenuity, offering hikers and history enthusiasts a chance to walk in the footsteps of those who traveled this vital route for centuries. With stunning views and historical landmarks along the way, it remains one of Norway’s most celebrated and preserved cultural heritage sites.
You’ll have the opportunity to visit the iconic Borgund Stave Church, a medieval masterpiece of wooden architecture that tells the story of Norway’s Viking and Christian past. Along the trail, marvel at the impressive Vindhellavegen section with its steep, winding paths—a spectacular stretch.
The King's Road is not just a hike—it's a walk through time, where you can explore Norway's past while surrounded by breathtaking nature.
We will organize your transport between the stretches as well as luggage transport when you change hotels.
This tour can be combined with Multi-day hike in Jotunheimen
