In Norway there are 18 National Scenic Routes or Nasjonale turistveger and we were lucky to be in the vicinity of one known as Aurlandsfjellet.

In 2012, Paul & I had left Geiranger via the ferry cruise to Hellesylt and very much enjoyed the experience. As it would avoid having to tow a near 1.5 tonne caravan out of the fjord Kim & I decided that this would be the way to go again. The cost for the one hour ride was a little eye-watering, 1580NOK, but we went for it anyway.

After a good nights sleep in the layby we set off on a journey I had been looking forward to. I had ridden my motorcycle up Trollstigen, or Trolls Road, in 2012 and I knew that towing the van up would be exciting.
Kim wasn’t as enthused 🙂 We wound our way around the twisty roads until we finally reached the start of the climb. The climb passed fairly easily, with only one coach coming the other way 🙂
