It is recommended that the GPS is set to select the fastest route and any avoidance turned off for the route to be calculated as described.
This is a shorter version of route 2 where you also get to experience the Telemark Canal along Kviteseidvatn.
The canal boat leaves Fjågesund at 15:10 (15:20 on some days) and takes you "home" to Spjotsodd pier at 16:00 (Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun) or Kviteseid pier (Tue, Thu, Sat) at 16:20.
From Kviteseid, it’s a few kilometers and altitude meters further, and you should probably calculate 1 and 1.5 hours on the return trip depending on which pier you start from.A tip is to bring a car to Kviteseid bygdetun for transport home.
That way you can avoid the Kviteseid rivers, which for some may be demanding at the end of a long day.
You can also book transportation from the canal boat and back to the hotel, please contact the hotel.
NB!
There may be limited capacity on the canal boats in high season.
Book a ticket for you and your bike in advance here. https://www.telemarkskanalen.no/rutetider-og-priser
