Set out from Kirkenes and journey south along Norway´s Arctic coast, combining cycling and sailing through landscapes few ever see.
Over eight days you follow the southbound Hurtigruten/Havila voyage, linking rides and sailings via Vardø, Båtsfjord, Berlevåg, Havøysund, Hammerfest and into Tromsø. Start in Kirkenes and ride coastal stages such as Vardø–Hamningberg, Båtsfjord–Berlevåg, and Havøysund–Hammerfest, with time aboard ship between ports. Finish in Tromsø, the vibrant Arctic capital, where you can extend your stay or fly out with ease. See all daily stages below. It´s possible to combine this with the northbound route: Tromsø – Kirkenes
The app is a practical way to use Norway by Bike on your phone, including routes, favorites and selected membership features.
