Updated September 27, 2024

Winter is very close on Rallarvegen, so we currently do not recommend cycling the highest parts of Rallarvegen.

Please note that we will not update this page further as the cycling season is mostly over.

Maintenance work will also be carried out on the road that cannot be done during the high season, making passage with bicycles challenging. See dates/plan below.

Haugastøl-Finse

Currently snow-free, but this can change at short notice.

Plan for road maintenance:

Nygård, replacement of EL-cattle grid and old cattle grid with new

Week 39, 02.10 – 08.10 – a detour will be made, no problem for passage.

Kontebakk, new cattle grid

Week 41, 10.09 – No possibility for passage, preparations will be made in advance of the day, and the road will be closed for 1 day (10.09).

Larsbu, new cattle grid

Week 42, 14.10 – 17.10 – The road must be completely closed, as there is no possibility for passage.

Bridge replacement Tverråni.

Week 42, Tverråni (west of Kongsnut), the bridge needs new abutments and beams. The road will be closed from Monday to Friday in week 42. No possibility for passage.

Finse-Hallingskeid

There has been snow, and more is forecasted. We do not recommend planning trips on this section now.

Hallingskeid-Vatnahalsen

No snow currently, but it can be slippery and frosty. Be aware that it is rocky and steep at times. The road may be washed out after snowmelt, so we recommend keeping your speed low.

Vatnahalsen-Flåm

Good cycling conditions all the way. As always, it is steep at times and there is oncoming traffic, so keep your speed low and walk if you are unsure.

Bike rental Our bike rental in Flåm is open daily from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Other information:

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

Rallarvegen is largely unsecured, and it is sometimes a long way down. Keep your speed down, and be observant. Take your time and enjoy everything along the way.
