Atlantic Ocean Road - Archipelago connected with bridges - Norway

Read this post on TravelFeed.io for the best experience


Norway is a country that no matter where you go or what route you take you are nearly guaranteed to find some amazing scenery! This country is full of amazing nature, such as mountains, fjords, rivers, lakes and much more. The Atlantic Ocean road is something quite special, as it is a series of bridges that connects the small islands in the area. Although the scenic road is only around 8 kilometres, it offers up some amazing scenery so deserves many stops along the way.

This area (like alot of Norway) is fairly touristy, and also alot of campervans stopping along the way. However, this didnt get in the way of our enjoyment here as we were used to it by then. Norway isnt short on places to stop top take in the view - we seemed to find rest stops every few kilometres all over Norway. We didnt make any excuses for not having amazing views with our lunch each day. What was quite amazing as we stopped along the way was how clear the water was, and how many small rocks and islands there were and how they all seemed interconnected.

A peaceful spot

This part of Norway is where there were ALOT of fjords and mountains and it was an incredible backdrop during this drive. We were there at the end of last summer, and so there was no snow on the mountains which was a bit disappointing. However, the upside was that it wasnt too cold - we were told by locals that this was a warm summer, although we didnt think so!

Crystal clear water!

Some of the bridges were pretty incredible in design! This was quite an experience because alot of Norway is either connected by tunnels or by ferrys. So this was something a little bit different and unique. The bridge below was probably the biggest one, and as you can see was quite steep. It was really fun to drive across and gave another perspective to the area as we were up higher and could see more of the connecting islands.

We also found a lookout which took us a bit higher up aswell. This made for a great photo, and again some perspective on the surrounding area.

Although not the easiest to keep steady, we managed to get a couple of shots of the area while driving. Looking at these shows how remote this area is - it is amazing to think that people live here - on either side of the Atlantic Ocean Road are small villages. Like most small villages in Norway they were very picteresque.

Driving shot!

Overall the Atlantic Ocean Road was a worthy place of visiting in Norway as part of our road trip. The great views and differing landscape offered something special that we hadnt experienced in Norway before.

Highly reccomended! Probably the most beautiful country we went to (apart from New Zealand 😂😃). Everywhere you look is like a postcard. We spent 3 weeks there. It wasnt enough

3 weeks wasn't enough...Hmm, that's both promising and problematic from a time perspective. Either way, it's somewhere I want to go. Best time of year?

Yeah we met people who had been there 2 or more months travelling! Well we did it at the tail end of summer so it was nice weather and great for hiking. I would imagine it would be very cold over winter, but would be epic with all the snow! And would be able to snowboard etc. And the winter has the norther lights. Ahh choices galore!

So many places and so little time (and money too!) Lol.

I hope to get there. We are booked to fly to Denmark, Finland and Estonia 6th July this year...Not sure we'll get to fly though. (Not sure if you know but my brother @tarazkp lives in Finland. A long damned way form Australia!

Cool! We have been to all those countries so if you need any tips for places to go I can probably help you out. Tallin was an amazing city! Loved it one of the better cities we went to. We spent a small ammount of time in Denmark but was really nice.

Yeah Finland is really cool - alot different to Norway - alot flatter lol.

Good luck I doubt youl be flying by then but who knows.

I think we have it covered but closer to the trip (whenever that will be) I might hit you up about Denmark. Obviously we have Tallin and Finland covered as my brother (two of them actually) live there.
