Route 4

Norway's roof

This is one of Norway’s most beautiful routes for motorcycles, provided you can handle a good driving session and a few hours in the seat. The route can actually be driven both ways and is just as great either way. If you hit a good weather day, this ride will probably be one of the best you’ve ever ridden in Norway!

The route is defined as normal

This trip starts with some fantastic turns up to the foot of Dalsnibba, one of the most beautiful climbs in Møre og Romsdal, but not as much talked about as Trollstigen and Ørnevegen.

The trip down from Strynefjellet offers some tunnel sections that end up in a circus of varied turns and turn combinations.
On the way to Sogndal, the route’s southernmost point, you will NEVER get bored.
The sights are lined up and you will be able to choose between nature experiences and organized activities on the way south.
The cable car in Loen is one of these.
Sogndal might be a natural place to stop for lunch before embarking on the wow stage over Sognefjellet.
From here, you’ll experience the wildest of Norway’s fjords and mountains, and the drive through the spectacular landscape is winding and delightful.
A dilemma quickly arises in which you almost have to choose between enjoying the twists and turns or visual impressions that almost exceed all expectations.
For motorcyclists, this must be heaven itself!
When you arrive in Lom, you have about 100 km left of the trip back to Geiranger, where the terrain is calmer, the bends are bigger and you can flow well through the landscape over the mountain to Grotli and on to Geiranger.
If you now have the strength left and are receptive, we can recommend the trip up Dalsnibba.
You’ll probably arrive here in the afternoon with the sun setting in the west and the visual impressions will surpass most of what you’ve seen before.
The road up to Dalsnibba is a chapter in itself and extremely fun to drive.
The descent to Hotel Union Geiranger can then only be enjoyed with new turns and a hearty meal within reach.
