Route 5

List of gravel

This is a route that runs in the same landscape as route 3 and route 4, but we have unreservedly prioritized gravel. The quality of these gravel roads is “unfortunately” a little too good, but you get gravel. For gravel enthusiasts, this means a lot of speed and fun. The route includes a total of 2788 vertical meters.

There's a lot of up and down, in and out, a lot of terrain and fauna that can take many people's breath away. Rain is no obstacle, which makes this route even more beautiful. There are plenty of breaks and places to eat along the way, so don't forget to take breaks.

This route started and stopped in Flekkefjord, so if you’re in another of the three cities, you’ll have to get there first. We can inform you that Grans Hotell Flekkefjord is in the chain and therefore part of this concept. Once again, we are in Route 3 and Route 4 country so the topography will be similar to these routes. There are plenty of great experiences on the way, note the building style and decoration of the farmhouse you pass, you are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Gravel and asphalt reveal each other but the proportion of gravel should be about 50% of the entire route, which is 140 km and includes 2788 meters of altitude.

Along the way, you will pass many detours that we recommend exploring. Many of them will be return tracks, but as you know, back and forth is two trips in the motorcycle world.
