Route 8

The coast

Route 8 is the coastal route, which is one of our longest yet not so challenging to drive. You drive along the Sognefjord to Lavik and then on narrow roads to Leirvik and on to Salbu (just before Sørbøvågen).

The route is defined as easy

Routes defined as easy are suitable for everyone regardless of experience.

Map description is missing

From here, the road runs through the charming “forest” on narrow roads to Hellevik.
Perhaps you’ll stop in Dale and take a trip over the spectacular Dalsfjord Bridge?
Now the trip continues to Sande, through Ytredalen to Vadheim where you get high mountains on both sides of the valley.
From Vadheim to Balestrand you drive along the Sognefjord and we highly recommend a stop in the industrial town of Høyanger with its long and relevant industrial history with the processing of Hydro’s aluminum products as an industrial mainstay.

How can I navigate the route?

This primarily depends on whether you have a GPS installed, navigate by App on your mobile phone or prefer paper printing.
Here we describe the most common workflows:

  • Download the GPX file for the route of your choice to your computer
  • Import the file to your route planning tool (e.g. Garmin’s Basecamp or Tom Tom’s MyDrive)
  • Export the route to your GPS in the usual way
  • Check that the route is calculated correctly in your GPS (It is recommended that the GPS is set to select the fastest route and any avoidance is turned off for the route to be calculated as described).
  • Have a good trip!
  • Download the GPX file for the route of your choice to your mobile phone
  • Send/open the file in the app that belongs to your GPS model (e.g. Garmin’s Drive or Tom Tom’s MyDrive)
  • Send the route to your GPS (follow instructions that come with your GPS and App)
  • Check that the route is calculated correctly in your GPS (It is recommended that the GPS is set to select the fastest route and any avoidance is turned off for the route to be calculated as described).

Hubriding means that, based at one of De Historiske Hotel, you choose from many defined riding routes located in the area surrounding the hotel. The routes we offer go through some of Norway’s very best terrain and include tens of thousands of bends, spectacular mountain passes, asphalt, gravel, wonderful nature experiences and the opportunity to eat well at local establishments. We’ve included sights and eateries for you to visit in the routes.
You will be able to choose from a number of routes and route combinations that make it possible to choose daily stages of varying length and difficulty. The concept has been developed by Straand Hotel in Vrådal together with Norway’s leading motorcycle enthusiasts.
