It is common knowledge that Norway is a very long country, but to experience how long it really is, once in your lifetime you should travel all the way to the top, preferably by motorcycle.
Our tour starts deep in the south of the country, in the unmissable Ålesund. From here we ride over the famous Trollstigen to Trondheim, the gateway to the north, and then further northwards; sometimes via the rugged coast, sometimes through the remote and isolated hinterland. We cross the Arctic Circle, an event which must of course be captured in a photo. We then ride the ferry to the Lofoten; a chain of barren, world-forgotten islands whose unspoiled beauty will remain in your memory for a long time. They are connected by bridges and tunnels and so we soon reach the mainland again. The further north we go, the longer the days get; the nights get shorter and finally disappear completely. One hardly gets tired as long as it’s bright outside, which comes in handy as some of our riding days are quite long. More and more the anticipation rises to the destination of the journey: the legendary North Cape, where every motorcyclist must visit once in their life.
As a reward for the long journey there is one final photo: you in front of the huge globe monument. A day later this fantastic tour ends in Tromsø.
