About This Route

Often called 'The Road in the Ocean'. This architectural masterpiece skips from island to island via 8 bridges, snaking along the edge of the Norwegian Sea. The most famous is the Storseisundet Bridge, which looks like it ends in mid-air. WARNING: While the road is mostly flat, it is exposed to extreme weather. Large waves can literally wash over the asphalt during storms. It's a short but visually overwhelming experience of man's struggle against nature.
