EuroVelo 7 Sun Route

Norway

EuroVelo 7 in Norway starts at the North Cape, situated on the northern coast of the island of Magerøya in Northern Norway. Then starts the long southbound ride, first along Porsangerflorden and then inland, along the Stabbursdalen National Park and down to the Norwagian-Finnish border! Take some time to feel the magic of the North Cape, it includes a 307-metre-high cliff (located about 2,102 km from the North Pole) with a large flat plateau on top, where visitors can watch the midnight sun and views of the Barents Sea to the north. Of course, to see the midnight sun, start your journey between 14 May and 31 July!

Developed routes with signs are suitable for most cyclists. However, short stretches with lower-quality conditions may occur, and it is recommended to bring a map or navigation app as signs can have defects.

Developed routes without signs are suitable for most cyclists. However, short stretches with lower-quality conditions may occur, and it is warmly recommended to bring a map or navigation app.
