Overview

About this collection

The Kystruta connects coastal towns and islands from south to west, with ferries, bridges, and nice bike paths. This collection covers stages you can cycle separately or link together for a longer tour. Expect mostly asphalt and dedicated bike lanes, some gravel here and there, and a few short sections on busier roads.

Highlights? Sea views, beaches and rocky shores, small harbours and cafés, and fjord crossings that make the trip varied. Many places have train and bus for easy logistics, and ferries are a natural part of the experience. The route is also part of the Nordsjøruta/EuroVelo 12.

Suitable for touring and bikepacking; child-friendly on the quietest parts near towns and villages. Best season is May to September. Weather can change quickly along the coast – bring wind and rain gear. Check local rules for tunnels and any detours before you go.

Choose a short, pleasant day ride along the coast, or link several stages for a proper coastal classic.
