Day 6 Getting to Jørdeland

Going to ride the Lysevegan and then get a ferry down the Fjord to Forsand....We'll be riding down the mountain though, rather than the better way of riding one of these hairpin roads - which is up!! It's so much easier going up. We may have time before the ferry to ride back up and then down again.

Google maps can't route the trip yet as the Lysevgan is closed - hopefully it will be open before we go. Normally opens spring time, May/June so fingers crossed for this!!🤞🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️

Lysevegen Road – Lysebotn voted in the top 5 roads to ride in NorwayLike a ribbon dropped from the heavens, the Lysevegen Road is a biker’s dream.

The 18-mile road carves its way over the mountains above the tiny village of Lysebotn, which is located at the foot of a fjord in southwest Norway. Once you’ve travelled over the mountains, the road plunges down to the floor of the fjord from a height of around 1,000m in a succession of 27 tight and steep hairpins that are just a joy to ride.

The photo above looks enticing but it’s only when you ride the road that you realise how steep those hairpin turns really are. The best part of the Lysevegen Road? It’s the only route in and out of Lysebotn, so you’ll get to ride it twice. unless like us, you get a ferry down the Fjord.

Ferry from Lysebotn looks a bit of fun and we should get some fantastic views of Lysefjord from the ferry down.
