Gaularfjellet Tourist Road

kr29.00

Looking to make your road-trip around Norway more fun and informative? You definitely need our guide to the drive on the Gaularfjellet Tourist Road!

Gaularfjellet is a mountain area that separates the traditional regions of Sogn and Sunnfjord. The mountains reach as high as 1,615 metres. The tourist road has been open since 1938 and is very popular because of the rapid transition from fjord to mountain. For many, though, it is still a well-kept secret as it is not as popular or well-known as the other tourist roads.

The road was established as a tourist road because of its high number of waterfalls but also the engineering that went into building a road over the mountains.

This is one of the best-kept secrets of all the scenic roads in Norway!

Think of our guides like a fun, informative directory. We give you the information for the A to B, what to see and do along the highway while you’re on your road-trip. We also give you the practical information (toilets, food, coffee, rest areas, museums, local shops) so you can plan your trip well!

Please read below for a detailed overview of what is and isn’t included.
