It is recommended that GPS is set to select the fastest route and any avoidance turned off in order for the route to be calculated as described.

The first part of "To Fylker" runs along the Nisser on dusty bends to Treungen and Åmli and can only be enjoyed as a good warm-up. It's nice to stretch your legs on the jetty at Treungen or visit the festive Z Museum, which has a lot to offer all of us autophiles.

A few kilometers south of Åmli, turn left onto RV 415 towards Tvedestrand and here starts the fun that will last for a few hours! To begin with, big nice turns through beautiful scenery and lakes down to Nesgrenda where you turn left on Vålandsveien towards Blakstad, an absolutely delightful fairground road with good asphalt, a little narrow but terribly festive. Blakstad offers dining before you drive on towards Dølemo on RV 42 and 41. This stretch is incredibly charming and has a guaranteed turn. You pass Åmli for the second time today before turning left after 3 km up Gjøvdal towards Fyresdal. This section has a slightly worse road surface but otherwise consists of bends, terrain and altitude. An incredibly fun area to drive in and which once again offers a lot of beautiful scenery. Here you can also find many great stops that can be enjoyed alone or in good company. The drive down from the mountains to Fyresdal is winding and fun and if you're really lucky, you can refuel and enjoy a cup of coffee there, well entertained by the airport's local model airplane community that operates great replicas of all kinds of aircraft with authentic sound and maneuverability. As you continue north towards Vråliosen on RV 355, you'll be happy to let off some steam in some lovely sweepers. At Vråliosen, turn right onto RV 38 along Vråvatn and complete the charming route with delightful bends to Vrådal.
