Trip Details

Hi everyone!


I'm in the process of planning a roadtrip from the Netherlands to Norway for June/July 2021. The total trip should last 3 weeks. I'll take the ferry from Denmark to Bergen, drive towards Ålesund and eventually go down through the middle of Norway to Oslo, to take the ferry back to Denmark.

Just that you know, I already started planning the trip as I don't want to wait until someone comes up to join me. Know that everything below is what I have in mind at the moment, there is some room to skip several things or to shorten parts.

I don't like to waste days just sitting around, so my planning is quite packed, but there is possibility to take a couple days rest if you'd like. The first days I like to hike short trails and do dayhikes to see several waterfalls and some nature. After this I would like to pay a visit to the island of Runde. I like to explore the less-known and more rough area's, so I've planned two 2-day hikes, one 3-day hike and even a 4-day hike around the area of the Beseggen Ridge.


I wouldn't consider myself an experienced hiker, but I've hiked several times in the mountains (Norway and Dolomites) before. The trip should be somewhat adventurous, mainly exploring the nature and landscapes Norway has to offer. For accommodation I was planning on renting small cabins (on campgrounds). These come quite cheap with just a couple of beds and in most cases with hotplate and cooking utensils, only shower and toilet are in a different building. For the multi-day hikes I was planning on camping in the wild, but on some routes there are tourist huts where we can sleep. Depending on the weather, the wild-camping and longer hikes might get changed (>in case of thunderstorms, I don't fancy on sleeping in a tent in the mountains).


I will be traveling in my Kia Picanto, it's not quite a big car, but I'm sure it fits two people + luggage. I'm 22 years old, and I'm looking for someone aged around 20-30. You should definitely be into adventures and hiking and some hiking/camping experience is recommended. You don't have to match all of the boxes, and I'm sure we can shape the trip to both our interests.


If you're down for an adventure, just hit me up and we can figure things out! If you're not sure yet, or you think we should just connect, feel free to message me. I'd be more than happy to share a more detailed planning and answer all your questions. Hope to see you on the road!
