I booked a day room at the Radisson Blu Airport Gardarmoen, then left all my luggage in their storeroom for 3 weeks. The day room was very handy to shower, change and put bike together before heading out. They are very friendly and may store your bike bag even if you don’t book a room.

Hi Jill, These are great questions, and I completely hear you. Planning a first bikepacking trip in Norway with so many variables (timing, weather, scenery, road types, crowds) is tough to do justice to in a forum post, there’s just too much to balance all at once I’d be happy to help you decide a route that fits what you want: maximizing…

Hi Jill, landscapes in Norway are such diverse that options are many.
I don’t have a route recommendation (yet) but some hints:
