Embark on a 7-day adventure of a lifetime along the MTB Haute Route in Norway. We’ll journey through and uncover the breathtaking landscapes that define this part of Norway, with serene and picturesque mountain farms extending into vast valleys, tranquil and captivating lakes, and towering majestic mountains above. The dry conditions make this region a perfect destination for mountain biking, but we will still be in the mountains and above the tree line for a longer period. We encourage you to be prepared for all kinds of weather, and use the issued packing lists as reference to get the most out of your tour.

This guided tour is planned with arrival and departure by train. If you want to arrive and depart by car it is possible to organize transfer back to Hjerkinn at the end of the trip with an additional cost.

The tour is hosted as a private tour, which means you would have to meet the minimum requirement of 4 people to book this trip.
