Endless Cycling Possibilities – From Fjord to Forest

This region offers a rich network of roadcycling, paths and gravel roads that crisscross towns, countryside, forests, and coastline. Several of Norway’s national cycle routes pass through the area, alongside historical roads such as The King’s Road (Kongevegen) and The Silver Road (Sølvveien) — adding both cultural depth and scenic variety to your journey.

With its long coastline, the area brings you close to the Oslofjord, offering beaches, swimming spots, and opportunities for island hopping. You can combine your bike ride with boat trips for an even more memorable adventure. Inland, you’ll find vast forest areas with peaceful gravel roads, charming forest cabins with the best cinnamon buns, and idyllic farm-to-farm routes where you can shop local products in self-service farm shops. The cycling season is long, especially along the coast, where spring arrives early. In May, the blossoming fruit orchards create a colorful and fragrant backdrop for your ride.

Towns and villages are close together, ensuring easy access to food, drinks, and services along the way. It’s also simple to combine cycling with train and bus travel, making it easy to plan flexible and sustainable cycling experiences for riders of all levels.
