Today’s ride offers more stunning beaches, with fantastic sand and rolling waves creating a scenic coastal experience.

One of the highlights is Sola Beach, where you’ll find a beautiful long shoreline and Sola Strand Hotel, perfectly situated by the sea. As you continue, you will pass through Tananger, a small, charming village with fishing boats and white wooden houses, giving it a classic coastal feel.

Turning eastward, the scenery changes as you follow the winding path along Hafrsfjord, one of the most spectacular sections of the route. There are plenty of spots to take a break and simply enjoy the peaceful fjord views. Along the way, you will come across the impressive Sverd i Fjell monument, a striking landmark over the historic Viking battle of Hafrsfjord. Be mindful that the coastal path is shared with pedestrians.

The final stretch into Stavanger takes you past Mosvatnet, a peaceful lake, and through charming residential areas. Stavanger is a vibrant city with a beautiful harbor, cozy old town streets, and plenty of restaurants to relax and celebrate the end of your ride.
