Report updated: July 7, 2026
Route status and trip advice
The full route is passable for most cyclists. The first 4 km from Haugastøl towards Finse have new gravel – we recommend riding slowly here. The road is very good in some places, but severely washed out in others – keep your speed low around corners and where visibility is limited, so you can brake in time. On Finse–Hallingskeid, 3 snow patches remain; one is slightly slanted, the rest are easy to pass. Hallingskeid–Flåm is open with good conditions. Bike trailers and small children should not ride Finse–Hallingskeid. We recommend that children should be at least 12 years old for the full Finse–Flåm ride.
