Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Åndalsnes à Valldal

Ready for a true Norwegian adventure? Pedal from Åndalsnes, the picturesque “Alpine town by the fjord,” all the way to the fruit haven of Valldal. This 55 km route is not just about the distance—get set to climb nearly 1,900 meters! You’ll snake past dramatic peaks, deep valleys, and there’s a good chance you’ll be working those legs up some seriously scenic mountain passes.

Expect a bit of everything under your tires—most of the surfaces aren’t fully described, but you’ll hit some good stretches of asphalt, paved sections, and even a few access roads and forest paths. It’s a quiet ride overall, with just a few busier roads thrown in, so keep your wits about you and enjoy the silence when you have it.

Åndalsnes is famous as the gateway to the legendary Trollstigen road, so you know you’re starting somewhere epic. At the finish, celebrate your efforts in Valldal, known for its sweet strawberries and breathtaking fjord views. Bring snacks, water, and plenty of layers—this is Norwegian nature at its finest!
