Norway Motorcycle Tour: Fjords & Glaciers

This Norway motorcycle tour begins at the Color Line terminal in Kiel, where the group arrives by 11 am and boards the night ferry to Oslo together with the tour guides. Onboard, the group gets acquainted over dinner in the buffet restaurant before settling into their cabins for the night.

After the breakfast buffet onboard, the ferry reaches Oslo at 10 am, where this guided Norway motorcycle tour officially begins. Winding secondary roads lead into the western Telemark region as far as Dalen, where the night's stay awaits at the Dalen Hotel, built in 1894 in Swiss chalet style.

Today, this own-motorcycle tour crosses mountains and passes countless lakes to the eastern end of the Lysefjord, which the group traverses lengthwise by ferry. The route continues along the west coast to Sauda, with an overnight stay at the Art Nouveau-style Sauda Fjordhotell from 1914.

Crossing the Røldalsfjellet, this Hardangerfjord motorcycle tour follows the Sørfjord and the Hardangerfjord into the old Hanseatic city of Bergen. Before dinner, the group explores the fish market at the harbour and the historic Hanseatic quarter Tyske Brygge, before checking in at the waterfront Hotel Clarion Admiral.

As an onroad Norway motorcycle tour, today's stage crosses the Masfjord and the Sognefjord by ferry, leading over mountains and past numerous lakes through the fjord landscape to the traditional Gloppen Hotell in the town of Sandane.

Three ferry connections shape this stage, above all the one-hour crossing through the Geirangerfjord, the highlight of any Geirangerfjord motorcycle tour and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The overnight stay is at the Rica Seilet Hotel in Molde, with views of the Romsdal Alps.

On this Scandinavia motorcycle tour, Molde is scheduled as a rest day with two nights at the Rica Seilet Hotel. Options include a visit to the Romsdal Museum, a hike up Varden, or a short extra ride of around 150 km along the Atlantic Road to Bud.

Today's Trollstigen motorcycle tour crosses the famous mountain pass, followed by the view from Eagle Road over the Geirangerfjord. Equally impressive is the ride to Dalsnibba via a seven-kilometre toll road at 1,495 metres altitude. Overnight stay at the Thon Hotel Jølster.

A visit to the Bøyabreen glacier opens this day of the Norway glacier motorcycle tour, before the Sognefjell motorcycle tour crosses Norway's highest mountain pass at 1,434 metres to Lom. After the 12th-century stave church, the route continues to the Bergo Hotel in Beitostølen.

As part of this Norway motorcycle round trip, the group crosses Valdres today on the Panoramavegen, a small toll road with some unpaved but easily rideable sections, passing the Hallingdalselva river and Lake Krøderen to the Quality Resort & Spa Norefjell.

On the final stage in Norway, the tour again follows secondary roads before the Kiel-Oslo ferry departs Oslo at 2 pm. The crossing through the Oslofjord takes place in daylight, while the group says its goodbyes over a farewell dinner onboard.

After an ample breakfast buffet onboard, the ferry docks in Kiel at around 10 am, where this Norway motorcycle tour comes to its conclusion. The group says goodbye at the terminal before each participant sets off individually for home, taking along memories of fjords and mountain passes.
