This road trip is a true expedition to the North Cape. The first part in Norway is mostly done by road, and the return journey is through Finland and Sweden is quasi exclusively on trails.. We will travel a portion of the Swedish TET*. There's a relatively significant number of kilometers to cover each day, but the landscapes we will pass through are nothing short of dreamlike!
An unforgettable Arctic adventure!

Larvik

Welcome in Norway!
Arrival in Larvik on your own. We recommend taking the ferry from Hirtshals, Denmark. The crossing is fast, cost-effective, and drops you directly in Languesund. A hotel room reserved in your name awaits you. Tonight, there will be a welcome briefing with the guide.


Day 2:
Hemsedal
350 KM & 5h30

Let's go! The road takes us on a zigzag journey between the fjords in the west of the country, and we will make a stop to see the legendary medieval wooden churches, the Stavekirke.


Day 3:
Geiranger
350 KM & 5h30

We continue northward through the fjords. Breathtaking viewpoints impose contemplative stops. We arrive in Geiranger for the night, the starting point of the famous Trolls Road: "The route of giants"!


Day 4:
Trondheim
360 KM & 5h30

Today, we tackle the Trollstigen, literally the "passage of trolls," which can be interpreted as the road of giants. It's one of the highlights of the trip, both literally and figuratively. This massive asphalt serpent is THE must-ride in Norway. We then continue to Trondheim for the night.


Day 5:
Moesjen
380 KM & 5h

We continue our journey northward and spend the night in the Norwegian countryside in Moesjen.


Day 6:
Lofoten
400 KM & 6h

Today, we pass the Arctic Circle's boundary! It's official: we are entering the Arctic dimension of this road trip! We reach the coast to take the ferry that will lead us to the Lofoten Islands, where we can enjoy a well-deserved rest day after 6 days of adventure.

Day 7: Day off in the Lofoten
(120 KM & 2h30)

The Lofoten Islands are a collection of islands and peninsulas dotted with small fishing villages and connected by spectacular roads. We follow mountains and cliffs that plunge into the Norwegian Sea, like the majestic Higravstinden, which rises to 1,146 meters. You have the option to explore the Lofoten Islands today with a quick loop, go hiking on your own, or simply relax at the hotel.


Day 8:
Bardufoss
420 KM & 5h30

Let's go again!
Well-rested, we embark on a full day of riding, crossing the Lofoten Islands from west to east towards our final destination: the North Cape!
Numerous photo stops will be mandatory to preserve memories of these magnificent landscapes!


Day 9:
Alta
370 KM & 5h

A few more stretches of road through the Norwegian spruce forests (Picea Excelsa) lead us to Alta, our goal for the evening. This city is known for its northern lights in winter.
This city is known for its Northern Lights in the winter.


Day 10:
North Cape!
270 KM & 4h

There are unmistakable signs: temperatures have dropped significantly for several days, reindeer roam the roadsides, and vegetation is stunted by the cold. Yes! It's the big day! At last! We arrive at our goal: the North Cape! After nearly 3000 km, we reach the northernmost point of the European continent. By the Barents Sea, the globe symbolizing the location of the North Cape stands proudly. We take the time to savor the moment and immortalize it, then we head back to spend the night in Honningsvag.

Day 11: Inari
380 KM & 5h30

It's time to head south and begin the off-road portion of the tour! We're already in Finland and starting the first kilometers of off-road trails that will be our daily bread for the crossing of Lapland.

Day 12: Meltaus
320 KM & 5h30

A good day of riding on the Lapland trails where you'll need to watch out for reindeer, which are more numerous than the people in this region of the world.

Day 13: Arvidsjaur
430 KM & 5h30

We're crossing the Arctic Circle once again and leaving our dear Finland to meet another beautiful Scandinavian nation: Sweden! It's a day of mostly road riding today with some great off-road sections along the way.

Today's objective: Rest and sauna! We enjoy the Swedish tradition to the fullest!

Day 15: Haxas

Jour 16 : Ytterhogdal
250 KM & 5h

The wide tracks of the Swedish TET accompany us for the day. Through the spruce forests, we head south toward the Norwegian border.

Day 17: Trysil
290 KM & 5h30

Nearly two hundred kilometers of off-road trails lead us into Norway! The land of the Trolls welcomes us with open arms and marks the end of the off-road portion of the trip. We spend the night in Trysil.
