Tour character

The cycling is generally easy, with mostly moderate distances and gently rolling terrain. However, some hills must be expected. The first stage between Sunde and Bergen can have some traffic, so extra attention is needed there. Apart from this section, the roads are usually quiet and pleasant to ride. There are cycle paths in and out of the larger towns, making it easier and safer to navigate near busier areas.
