18 Official scenic roads in Norway

Mountains of Norway

There is without a doubt no better way of seeing Norway than by driving. Norway is a large (and in the south, wide) country, and really getting around without a car is not that easy. There are 18 official scenic roads which includes basically most of the highlights Norwegian nature has to offer.

Great roadtrips near Stavanger!

There are several really good roadtrips you can take starting in (or very near) Stavanger. Two of these are Ryfylke and Jæren. Both of these are also among the 18 official scenic routes in Norway that we described in another post. Jæren is a short but definitely worthwhile trip (especially if you are interested in beaches and/or surfing), and Ryfylke is a longer roadtrip with lots of classic Norwegian highlights.
