The ride starts at sea level, just next to the Aurlandsfjord. During the first half of the climb, you’ll occasionally get stunning views of the fjord. You will also see fellows cyclists and eager runners. It is easy to get into a good climbing rhythm as the gradient of the road does not change much. Midway you pass the famous Stegastein viewpoint. From here you leave the fjord and ride inland. Inland you can enjoy open views of the mountains. Despite you are riding in the middle of July, the mountains still have patches of snow. Deep down beneath you in the underground, you have the world’s longest road tunnel. This ride follows the same route as Aurlandsfjellet Extreme Triathlon, the world’s most scenic triathlon.

But when it comes to music opinions are very mixed. This is why we have not added any music and why we recommend adding your favorite music to the ride. It is quite simple. Mute YouTube and open a browser window. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, YouTube, etc…) and pick the music you like, and enjoy the ride... The original sound of the ride has been left out. This is because the natural sound of the surroundings is drowned by noise from passing cars, vibrations from the road, wind, and the rider’s breathing.
