Most of the tunnels have a bike path to take as an alternative. But this one we didn't know about the bike ferry that costs....that John Street mentioned.
4 months agoThanks, they are unnerving with the sound and hard to tell whether the traffic sound is from behind or the cars ahead.
4 months agoSurreal. What a place to call home.
4 months agoA, eh?
4 months agoFantastic photos! Glad you survived that tunnel though. Sounded very scary.
4 months agoI dislike those kind of tunnels. I’m glad you made it through safely!
4 months agoYour post had me looking at my own blog to remind myself. https://johndelaroo.com/2023/07/31/norwegian-bicycle-tour-day-12/
We cycled in the opposite direction one year ago (minus 4 days) - all four tunnels were avoidable but a couple of them were difficult to spot - not obvious, no signposts. But once on them, they were very enjoyable. Also there is a cycle ferry from Nusfjord to Ballstad that avoids the scary undersea tunnel (Nappstraum). But it costs 400 NOK per person so maybe that put you off.

Thanks John, we'll have to take a look at your blog. We didn't know about the ferry, but you are probably right, that is quite a cost!
