Updated 2. July, 2025

The bike season has started properly, and there are lots of cyclists on the route now. Its been raining hard for some days, so most of the snow has now melted. See below for all details.

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.

There are about 20 snow patches covering a total of approximately 800 meters of snow between Finse and Hallingskeid. Some are in steep terrain, so it's important to wear good waterproof shoes and be prepared to carry your bike across the steeper patches.

If you're carrying a lot of luggage, are short on time, or traveling with small children, we recommend taking the train.

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.
