Loops from Aalesund
Hi!
I have about 5 full days of riding possible, originally I wanted to land in Bergen and ride up to Aalesund and fly from there but I think logistics wise, bike box etc, it would be easier to do a loop from Aalesund. Also cheaper flying from London. Does anyone know of a good loop or must see spots/roads – around 400-500km? I am very open to any advice on where I could go instead.
Thanks!

In the premium members section, you will get a lot of info regarding loops around Ålesund. This is a small version, but you can extend it to 300-400km. This is mentioned in the alternative section on the detail page: https://cyclenorway.com/en/routes/the-worlds-greatest-day-ride/
There is also this one where you can take a bus back to Ålesund from Åndalsnes: https://cyclenorway.com/en/routes/the-wonders-of-fjord-norway/

Hi Meg,
Me and my wife are just back from our sightseeing and leisure cycling tour south of Ålesund. We were looking more or less what you described, a loop with peaceful paved roads and beautiful surroundings. So here is what we would recommend based on our limited experience.
Ferry from Sula to Festoya – cycling to Indre Standal (amazing road) – ferries Standal to Trandal to Saebo to Lekneset OR cycling from Indre Standal to Brautaset to Saebo (amazing climb and descent) – cycling from Urke to direction Stryn (beautiful first 30 km) – now you can turn 10 km before Stryn to road 613, OR, if you have time, we recommend to take detours through Stryn to lakes Oldevatnet and/or Lovatnet (amazing rides along the shores) and back – road 613 to Lote – ferry to Anda – Anda to Sandane to Hyen to Florö – from Florö along Eurovelo 1 to Ålesund.
We are happy to give more info.
Wish you a great ride (and fair weather 😀)
