RouteXpert Review
This is the first day ride of Thomas Falck Østli, part of a longer trip. This is a beautiful route from Oslo to Geiranger. While driving the route you enjoy impressive landscapes and views. You drive long distances in Norway without gas stations and restaurants, keep this in mind before you start driving. The route includes a number of gas stations and possible stops at restaurants. Take a few bottles of water with you and possibly top up when you stop to refuel. To spend the night cheaply, it is wise to bring a tent. You can camp anywhere for free, except on land that is private property or in places with a prohibition sign. If you do not want to camp, cabins on campsites are a cheap solution. For safety's sake, however, bring a tent with you.
This route starts in Oslo, where the ferry from Kiel arrives. The end point is in Geiranger, where there are several campsites and hotels to spend the night. To eat and drink along the way, you can bring something yourself. You can also stop at Valdresporten Cafeteria or Grotli Høyfjellshotel for example. There are also options for a coffee break or lunch break at restaurants in the towns of Fagernes, Beitostølen or Lom.
The road to Dalsnibba (the highest European fjord view from the road, 1500 m) is usually open from May to October. The opening times may vary slightly depending on the weather conditions. Toll must be paid on this road. It is also possible to skip this part of the route and continue to the end point.
