The Silver Road is Norway’s first public road, constructed between Oslo and Kongsberg after the establishment of the Kongsberg Silver Mines in 1623. Initially, the road ended in Hokksund, but was extended to Bragernes and Christiania (Oslo). This route remained a main road until 1905 when it was replaced by a new road.
A cycling route has been established along the Silver Road, passing through varied cultural landscapes, historical industrial sites and attractions on mainly quiet roads. It traverses seven municipalities, offering numerous historically interesting sites to visit along the way. Information boards have been set up at several locations along the route.
Travel the whole stretch in one day, or combine it with a stay-over in one of the cities along the way. The good train connections make it easy to bike parts of the route.
