Fjord Road trip suggestions

Posted by on

We are travelling to Norway and Copenhagen for 11 nights in mid June. We will land in Bergen and would like to take a road trip to Kristiansund (atlantic road) for 6-7 days and then fly to Oslo (2 days) and then fly to Copenhagen (2 days) before flying back home.

Would love you suggestions on the road trip, where to stop, hotel recommendations and activities. Not too much into hiking because of health reasons, but game for easy hikes. We are a family of 4 with kids 15 and 12.

Thank you so much in advance!

I haven't traveled up the coast of Norway by car, but I want to point out that if you plot your driving-route options on ViaMichelin.com and zoom way in on the map, any especially scenic roads will be highlighted in green. That may not be of much utility in your situation, because probably almost all the roads are scenic, but you can take a look.

I enjoyed our time in the Atlantic Road area. We spent the night right on the ocean at Farstad and went to the observation point west of Farstad before driving the Atlantic Road. We stopped at every pullout to walk the paths and sidewalks. We geocache, and we found several in that area. We did 15 days of driving in September. Let me know if you want me to send my detailed trip report.

Thank you.. here is what I am thinking.. please let me know if this is too much driving
Day 1: Arrive in Bergen and explore Bergen
Day 2: Voss [train to Voss and then rent a car]
Day3: Flam [this would unfortunately be a cruise ship day, we want to do the Flam zipline but don't want to cycle down, is there an option that we can take the train back to Flam from where the zipline ends]
Day 4: Fjaerland
Day 5: Geiranger
Day 6: Alesund
Day 7: flight to Oslo
Day 8: stay in Oslo
Day 9: Fly to CPH.

Any hotel recommendations would be great !
