Updated 29 June, 2025

The bike season has started properly, and there are lots of cyclists on the route now. We still reccommend to take the train between Finse and Hallingskeid, so please read below.

Haugastøl-Finse

The whole route to Finse is now clear of snow, and the route is dry and in generally good shape.

Finse-Hallingskeid

The road from Lågheller to Hallingskeid has been cleared, but the section from Finse to Lågheller must melt naturally due to restrictions from Ulvik Municipality and the County Governor of Vestland.

A lot has melted over the past week with significant rainfall. However, there is still a substantial amount of snow left. There are approximately 7–8 km of snow spread out over a 15 km stretch.

Cyclists are making the trip daily, but one must be very fit, carry little luggage, and wear waterproof shoes to get through.

For most people, we strongly recommend taking the train past this stretch for now.

If you rent a bike from us, you can bring it free of charge on the 10:50 train from Finse (a passenger ticket must be purchased through Vy).

If you wish to take a later train from Finse, there are departures at 11:20, 12:37, 14:08, 14:37, 16:35, and 18:53. All these trains allow bikes, but in limited numbers. Both the passenger and bike tickets must be booked and paid for in advance at vy.no..

There are no other options for getting from Finse to Hallingskeid except across the snow on Rallarvegen or by train.

Hallingskeid-Vatnahalsen

Route is dry and ready to ride. The road is rough in places, so please ride carefully.

Vatnahalsen-Flåm

This section is completely snow-free and passable now. There is some coarse gravel at the beginning, and as always, it is steep and technical in the upper part.

Our bike rental in Haugastøl and Flåm is open daily from 08.00-18.00 and Finse will open on 4. July.

Other information:

We strongly encourage consideration during your bike trip. You are cycling through a protected area with rich wildlife and cultural heritage. Everything you bring on your trip should also be taken back with you. If you wish to camp along the way, please be mindful of nature, wildlife, and cabins.

Rallarvegen is largely unsecured, and there are steep drops at times. Keep your speed down and stay alert. Take your time and enjoy everything along the way.
