So what route are you taking to Scandinavia?

 

[DavidG58]

September for us, looking for early Aurora sightings, going up to Tromso as well, driving round via tunnel, then the Swedish bridge, might regret that, but best option for dog

 

[Flyingscotsman2]

We are thinking the bridge use to go over in it in the truck and just over the other side was a nice park area.then head for Malmö then Gothenburg.

Don't you know I'll send you a map if you like

I know the way, I asked what route you are taking. It's been discussed on various threads this year, the two Danish bridges or Travemunde to Trelleborg or the DFDS freight route direct to Norway.

Edit: I see your earlier post now, Hirtshals it is then. Good roads through the length of Jutland but boring. You can overnight around Hirtshals, plenty of places to pull in round what passes for a port and a stones throw from the town.

It of course depends where you are going to tour in Norway re, which ferry you choose. The problem with Bergen is that if travelling north from Bergen, it will be expensive as you will have to catch the multitude of smaller ferries as you go up. Thats the reason I like Larvic as it allows me to transit Sweden which is much cheaper fuel and provisions wise than Norway. I then cross over into Norway when above the Arctic circle.

 

[Flyingscotsman2]

I would go wat Dave said but it does take a bit of planning

Right up the top robert stunning

 

[Flyingscotsman2]

Dave is there any campsites on the Atlantic road

 

[Chockswahay]

Snowbird is right

It is all down to time and money really. Norway is MASSIVE and EXPENSIVE.

If budget is not a limiting factor you could always use the Hurtigruten

I have no idea about any campsites in Norway as the only ones I have used are fish camps. Wild camping is more the norm in Scandinavia as opposed to campsites.

 

[Flyingscotsman2]

Ok

 

[Snowbird]

If you are considering the Nordcap route, its nothing but a tourist trap, with tourist prices. There are far more scenic routes going up than the Nordcap route.
