RouteXpert Review The Norwegian Fjords, worn by the moving glaciers, are simply breathtakingly beautiful. There are various fjords to visit in Norway, such as the Trollfjord, Lysefjord and Sognefjord and Geirangerfjord. In this route you cross the Hardangerfjord, Jøsenfjord and Lysefjord in succession.
In this route you will sail over the Lysefjord to Lysebotn, where the cornering party will begin! Via 27 hairpin bends you will come to Øygardstøl Fjellrestaurant, where you can enjoy the view over the Lysefjord while enjoying some goodies. Note: There is pebble in the parking lot!
Then it continues to Tjørhom, where the Suleskarvegen starts, this +/- 40 km long road has been awarded as Norway's most beautiful motor road. Even according to the Norwegians, this road is made for motorcyclists. TO ENJOY!
After a little less than 40 KM you turn into the Setesdalsvegen, this Riksvei 9 is a main connecting road in the south of Norway. The road runs from Kristiansand on the coast, through the Setes valley to Haukeligrend in the interior of Vestfold og Telemark. The total length of the road is 235.7 kilometers.
After 95 km you leave the Setesdalsvegen, and after the coffee stop you continue to the end point in Austbø, where you can quietly process the impressions you have acquired in the hotel.
In this 5-star route you mainly drive on good roads, great views and the most beautiful motor road in Norway.
General information:
Norway is known for its amazing natural beauty. Fjords that tens of miles into the country, snow-covered high plains, sharp mountain peaks and vast forests. In this sparsely populated country, most people live in the cities, the capital of which is Oslo.
Some practical tips:
Tolls must be paid on a large number of roads in Norway. For many routes that is temporary: in Norway the costs for new roads, bridges and tunnels are paid by tolls. When the construction costs are settled, the toll on that specific route is lifted again. Bergen, Oslo, Trondheim, Kristiansand and some other cities also charge (city) tolls.
It is not necessary to take action when staying in Norway. Anyone approaching a toll road can simply drive on without stopping. With cameras above the road, the license plate of the vehicle is scanned, not the license plate of the trailer or caravan. It takes a long time for the photos to be processed.
The bill is then sent to the Euro Parking Collection (EPC) in London within four to six months. There is no extra charge for this service.
Mandatory on the motorcycle:
Safety vest - A motorcyclist must bring at least one safety vest. In the event of a breakdown or accident, the driver is obliged to wear a safety vest. The ANWB advises motorcyclists to also bring a safety vest for a possible passenger.
Advice:
First aid kit - Motorcyclists are advised to bring a first aid kit.
