Oppdal to Kristiansund on the Rv70

Description

Looking to enhance your Norwegian road-trip? Get our guide for the Rv70 from Oppdal to Kristiansund!

Kristiansund is typically only visited by people driving on the Atlantic Road. Of course, the Atlantic Road is famous for a reason. However, if you’re looking to combine your road-trip with something a little more ‘off the beaten path’ but just as beautiful, I really recommend Highway 70. Highway 70 goes from Oppdal in Central Norway to Kristiansund on the west coast. It connects you to Trondheim and Røros, two places I always recommend visiting. You start at the top of the hills, and eventually wind your way down a steep valley, ending up surrounded by 1000m (3000ft) high mountains. Eventually you reach the fjords, which lead you all the way to the coast.

This guide will:

• Answer the question “How do people live here?”
• Provide you with historic images and stories relevant to where you are
• Give you practical tips such as – where’s the nearest toilet? When can I get a hot dog? You know, the important stuff.
• Show you interesting points where you can stop to stretch your legs or get beautiful photos of Norway
• Give you information about museums (including opening hours), attractions, and major points of interests that you can visit

This guide won’t:

• Drive for you (Sorry, we aren’t that advanced yet)
• Give you accommodation tips (this guide assumes you know where you are staying already). If you want accommodation tips, visit our (free) online travel guide https://thehiddennorth.com/norway
• List experiences (think of this guide as more of a fun, informative directory. If you want to know what you can do, head to our free online travel guide)
• Detailed overview of hikes. We do list famous hikes, but don’t provide much information each one. This guide is purely for the A to B. Again, head to our free online travel guide for that information.
• Give you a detailed map overview. We have a basic map guide, but if you are looking for something detailed, I recommend buying one online! (click here for my recommendation)

Our guides are packed! Here’s what this one includes:

• Free interactive Google Map (with every place mentioned in the guide marked with an address) that can be loaded into your GPS, making finding that stave church or petrol station much easier.
• Detailed overviews of all the major points of interest on the road.
• Practical information (cafes, dining, museums, toilets, petrol, road-side rest areas, detours, alternate routes)
• Historic, modern and practical information for every city, town, village, and farm you pass through
• Modern and historic images of all the major points of interests
• Distance between points
• QR code & interactive links to museum websites, relevant pages on our website, ferry timetables, and more!
