Helgelandskysten is perhaps Norway’s finest coastal stretch, offering infinite possibilities for outdoor experiences both on land and at sea.

Scenic Routes closed during winter 2019/2020

Some of our Norwegian Scenic Route are closed during the winter. Here you can see which routes are open or closed. The table shows statistics for recent years. NOTE: This page does not show updated traffic information in real-time. It is important to note that even though a road has been opened for the summer season, it may still for some time be closed at night. Spring is a volatile season in the mountains, and in bad weather roads may be closed on short notice. Pay attention to weather forecasts and updated local road and traffic information.

Hiking along the Scenic Route Lofoten

The Norwegian Scenic Route Lofoten is one of the most popular stretches, much due to its magnificent nature and great hiking opportunities. Outtt has made a hiking guide for Lofoten where 10 of the finest hikes are described. Some of them are easy and some are more demanding. Together they give you the best of what Lofoten has to offer - white beaches, sea and sky, high mountains and charming little settlements and places to stay the night.

Hiking opportunities on Senja

Norwegian Scenic Route Senja and the viewpoints along the road are a good place to start when you wish to experience Senja, but to get to know this beautiful wild island properly, we recommend using your own two feet. Even a short hike from the car may lead you to hidden gems. Senja is packed with mountain tops, but each of them will give you a different perspective of the island and the winding coastline.

In the autumn of 2019, they began the work to provide a new Scenic Route toilet facility, a motorhome dump station and a car park.
