Our experience of the Atlantic Road Norway

This particular road was a ‘must-see’ for us as we took a Norwegian road trip from Bergen, north to visit places in the Arctic Circle during summer.

So, what is so special about this road you might ask?

The Atlantic Road (in Norwegian called Atlanterhavsveien or Atlanterhavsvegen) is a road that runs through an archipelago just off the mainland that offers wonderful views of the Atlantic Ocean and coastal landscape as you hop between a series of small islands and skerries, driving through several causeways, viaducts and 8 bridges.

In total, the road only goes for 8.3 kilometres (5.2 miles) but is such a famous stretch of road because of the beautiful sea and coastal views that surround it. It even has its own website.

Described as The most beautiful journey in the world, this particular stretch of road has featured in multiple top travel publications, where many impressive photos and film have been shot. Whether on a calm summer’s day with bright sunshine or during a storm or even a winter’s day with all the islands covered in snow, there are many stunning photos you can take here.

Where is The Atlantic Ocean Road Norway?

Situated in the Hustadvika and Averøy municipalities in Møre og Romsdal county, the Atlantic Road is a section of Route 64 running between the villages of Vevang in Hustadvika and Kårvåg in Averøy.

The two major towns that are on either side of the Atlantic Road are Molde (on the southern end) and Kristiansund on the northern side.

We approached the Atlantic Road from the south and our destination for where we would stop and rest was very close by, just before reaching Kristiansund.

Be careful when driving

A word of caution to be very aware of the road conditions here and to watch the weather.

It can be extremely treacherous particularly during a storm. Sizable waves can hit this unprotected area straight from the North Sea and sweep right across the road. Icy conditions during winter also need to be taken into consideration, particularly where there are steep climbs and descents on a couple of the bridges.

If you are planning a trip to take in the amazing sights here, you may want to check out the information published on the Dangerous Roads website just to be aware of the potential dangers, even though most of the time it is fine.

 

 

An impressive engineering feat

Due to its location and impressive construction, the Atlantic Road Norway has won several awards including “Norwegian Construction of the Century”– awarded in 2005.

In particular, the Atlantic Road construction is remembered for the Storseisundbrua: The longest bridge, being a curved architectural feat and is regarded as the symbol of the road.

From some angles as you approach it can look quite scary as if it rises up as a launching pad for cars! Depending on the road conditions and the amount of traffic you really need to be careful. The number of motorhomes, caravans and trucks you see along this road during the day is amazing and you can imagine how you need to slow down to be safe.

Similar to Trollstigen which we had just visited earlier, the road is an engineering marvel built amongst magnificent natural surroundings.

The construction of the Atlantic Road from beginning to end took 6 years.

 

 

Our experience

We visited here in summer which is a really good time to do a road trip up to the northern regions of Norway for two reasons. Firstly, (barring unforeseen circumstances) all the roads are usually open. Secondly, the closer you move north toward the arctic circle and beyond, it stays light for much later and therefore you can drive and explore for longer each day.

For our trip, we were both lucky and unlucky. Lucky because it was great weather and being late, there were very few cars and people around. Unlucky because even though there was plenty of light to see the beauty of this place, there was not enough light to produce great photographic shots.

So, while we loved spending time here and went up and down the entire stretch a couple of times, our photos did not come out half as well as we would have liked. Nevertheless, I share some of these below so you can have some idea of how stunning this place is, especially during the middle part of a sunny day.

Bear in mind that these were taken around 10.00 pm at night. We did have the option to return early the following morning but we had already had such a long day, so we decided instead to grab a bit more sleep and then push on toward the Arctic Circle the next day.

 

 

Activities

Aside from a number of parking areas on either side of the road where tourists pull over to take scenic photos throughout the archipelago, there are also other things you can enjoy here.

There are various sections of trails you can hike along, the most popular place to start being on Eldhusøya island. This is where the visitor centre is located where there are also toilets and a café.

You can also visit Askevågen viewpoint which is a small platform located at the tip of the breakwater. It is walled in by glass panels to protect you from the ocean spray and gives you yet another gorgeous view. This whole area is another photographer’s paradise.

Fishing enthusiasts can find many great spots around and also have the option of taking a boat excursion out onto the water.

The end of our day

We arrived very late to a gorgeous Air BNB that we had booked right next to the Atlantic Road. It was a two-story, 2-bedroom home with a generous living and dining area, modern kitchen and a wonderful outlook to a cove with boats you could all see from the front windows. The host was so lovely to drive out there to meet us so late and she made us feel very welcome as we settled down to rest there.

    I love road trips and drives and if it is the scenic one, then it is a total must for me. Good to know that Atlantic road runs through an archipelago with wonderful views of the Atlantic Ocean and coastal landscape. It must be amazing to cross 8 bridges and hop on to series of islands and driving through several causeways, viaducts, and 8 bridges. It really looks similar to Great Ocean Road, Melbourne. It is good you have given a tip to check the weather as a storm on this road could be dangerous for driving. Thanks for all tips.

      It really is an amazing drive for sure, Yukti, although I’m not sure I would have drawn too many similarities to the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. I say this simply because the Great Ocean Road is siutated entirely on the Australian continent and doesn’t connect a chain of islands like the Atlantic Road does. However there is no doubting the beauty of both locations. Thank you very much for reading and sharing your thoughts here. I’m really pleased you liked the post.

    I would love to visit Norway! It is definitely on my travel bucket list. I had no idea about the Atlantic Road, but oh my word. It is beautiful and scary, at the same time. That would be one of those things where I want a tour guide driving me around so I can just take in all the views without worrying I’ll crash into something or someone.

      I can totally relate to what you’re saying here, Erica. In my case, I was the passenger and was very distracted by looking at the fabulous outlook all around us – something I couldn’t do if I was driving. Plus a tour guide obviously knows the road and the area so much better and can talk to what you are seeing as well. The trick, of course, is to stop off on the numerous car parking areas along this stretch of road and hike a bit. Thanks so much for reading and making your point.

Great warning – I will definitely keep that in mind if we’re looking at booking when the world starts to open back up to travel again. Thank you for sharing. I had never heard of this stretch of road, but now I HAVE TO see it!

      Hopefully it won’t be too long before you can head back to Norway to see a lot more of what this beautiful country has to offer Emman. While we were driving through the Atlantic Road we saw a few motorhomes parked in various carparks for the night, so you can camp there in a sense and enjoy the fabulous scenery all around you.

    Hi Nicole,

    What are my impressions? Are you kidding me?! I want to be there right this moment!!! It’s gorgeous! Your way of telling the story and pictures you include (yours or not) are making it hard for me to stay in place. 🙂 I definitely want to visit Norway, and when I’m there, I’ll make sure to drive the Atlantic Road. Thank you for providing a detailed tour guide. The home you stayed in looks like a cozy place, and I don’t need to look for anything else… unless there is no vacancy at the time we travel there.

    I’m used to the “white nights” as I’m originally from St. Petersburg, Russia. It’s always nice during the summer to be close to the Arctic Circle, but difficult and somewhat depressing in the wintertime when daylight is very short. It may also be pretty cold there in the winter. So, summer is definitely the best time of the year to visit Northern countries.

    Thank you for another great travel report.

    ~ Julia

      I have not been to St. Petersburg as yet but I have heard it is a very beautiful city. In future articles on this series on Norway, I will be covering our experience north of the arctic circle where we experienced the midnight sun and unspoilt beautiful nature in the arctic region. I do hope you will enjoy those articles as well and thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts.

      I felt exactly the same way Marie but fortunately James was driving, not me. It actually isn’t as scary as it looks when you are driving on it. Plus it was really quiet when we went on it, so we did so quite slowly and enjoyed the views from up there. We did the same as we drove the other way as well so we viewed it from both directions.

    I visited Norway about 4 years back and remember reading about the Atlantic Ocean Road at the time. However, due to the lack of time, I couldn’t make it there and always felt it was such a pity because it looks gorgeous. I was not aware of the hiking trails in the area, I’d love to go on a hike somewhere on the Eldhusøya island. Also, the Askevågen viewpoint seems to offer amazing views and I’m always looking for such places!

      London is certainly quite easy to reach Norway, Monica – perhaps flying to Oslo and then Kristiansund would be the closest city to the Atlantic Road. However if you are planning a road trip, I would suggest starting out from Bergen and head north as we did during summer. Well worth the planning for such a beautiful road trip.

      Hi Blair. I have seen a number of drone shots of the Atlantic Road and there is nothing to indicate that this would be illegal. Norway does have a number of regulations that should be followed but nothing that would stop you flying a drone here that I could see. Check out this article for more information: https://uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-norway/ and I wish you all the best for your trip.

    We loved our cruise last year through the Norway Fjords. It was a great teaser for how many beautiful areas there would be to visit on a return trip. But we did miss the ability to do road trips like the Atlantic Road trip. The engineer in me was always fascinated when I heard the stories of what it took to build roads and railways through this rough land. Love that view of the bridge! I love that there were parking areas available for hikes. I would surely not want to miss the Askevågen viewpoint! We too are remembering Norway at this time of year.

      Thanks so much Linda. I’m sure the engineer in you would definitely love looking at the bridges and the entire project along this archipeligo, to say nothing of the scenic views. Your teaser trip will no doubt have whetted your appetite to return to explore more in-depth on land when the opportunity arises.

      The Storseisundbrua is certainly a highlight Aleeza and very memorable for its very different angles and design. Very cool to experience the drive over it and enjoy the views at a higher level in the process. Thanks so much for reading and leaving a comment.

    The Atlantic Ocean Road offers a stunning natural view worth treasuring. To be there will be quite an experience. The pictures look great.

    That does seem like a gorgeous road trip. Quite amazed to see those bridges – they look like a rollercoaster track. The advisory on the weather conditions is a good tip coz one would not expect the waves or water to rise so high over those bridges. The pic you shared does make it look really dangerous.
