Route Summary The roads in Norway are good to very good, the gravel roads themselves are well maintained and can therefore be driven very well with any type of motorcycle. You hardly have to pay toll anywhere for motorcycles. Note that you have to pay toll on a few passes, a credit card is therefore a must if you go to Norway. It can also happen that roads / passes are closed in the summer due to snowfall, we have experienced this on July 4, 2019, the road to Dalsnibba was closed due to snowfall.
In these routes I have assumed overnight stays at holiday parks or campsites, where you can spend the night without a reservation outside the high season, if you go during the high season, it is advisable to book in advance.

RouteXpert Review The fjords are surrounded by majestic cliffs and have beautiful blue water, but make no mistake: the water is just salty. That is no wonder if you know that fjords are actually long sea arms that often stretch far inland. Sometimes you see huge waterfalls along the meter-high mountain walls - created on the almost invisible glaciers.
The Sognefjord is the longest fjord in Norway and the third longest in the world, after the Kangertittivaq in Greenland and the Greely Fiord on Ellesmere island. Over 200 kilometers, this magical piece of nature extends through the west of Norway. It is located in Western Norway in the province of Sogn og Fjordane, approximately 72 km north of Bergen. At its deepest point, the Sognefjord is around 1,300 meters deep, while the mountains around the fjord rise up to sometimes 1,700 meters from the water. The Sognefjord extends from the coast just north of Bergen to the mighty mountains of the Jotunheimen National Park and the blue ice of the Jostedalsbreen Glacier. Amazing pictures guaranteed!
The Sognefjord region also has a strong culinary tradition. The mild climate, the clean air and an abundance of lush mountain meadows ensure that this region produces excellent, fresh local ingredients. Especially fruit, berries, lamb, game, mountain trout and goat cheese are products for which the region is known.
The mountain areas around the inner part of the Sognefjord are among the most popular hiking areas in Norway. The best known are the national parks Jotunheimen and Jostedalsbreen, the Breheimen mountain range and the Aurlandsdalen and Utladalen valleys. In addition to hiking, rafting, mountain and rock climbing, summer skiing and mountain biking are among the most popular activities in the region.
This 5 star rated route, through a dazzling nature, takes you along beautiful roads, along fantastic viewpoints. A memory that you will remember for a long time.
This route has the end point in Aurland, from where you can explore the 3rd route along the Naeroyfjord.
