NORWAY Relaxing Drive Across the Picturesque Mountain Pass to BERGEN, Driving Sounds _ ASMR

Описание: Drive from Oslo to Bergen and experience the magnificent mountain passes and majestic fjord landscape.

Enjoy the drive across the mountains and stop at places such as the Hardangervidda mountain plateau, Flåm or Vøringsfossen waterfall.

Driving to Bergen gives you freedom and beautiful scenery whether you are driving north from Stavanger to Bergen or east from Oslo to Bergen. If you drive from Oslo to Bergen in one go, it takes 7-8,5 hours, depending on which route you choose. But whichever route you take, there are a few stops that you should make time for on your journey. The most frequented routes between Norway's two biggest cities are Hardangervidda, Haukeli, Aurland – Hol, Filefjell and Hemsedal.

This route takes you close to the magnificent Sognefjord, which is Norway's longest and deepest fjord. This was a favourite motif for artists during the National Romantic period. Gudvangen and Flåm are two other very attractive destinations you will pass en route. A lot of cruise boat tourists visit these destinations, and get to see attractions such as Kjelfossen waterfall and the majestic mountains surrounding the narrow Nærøyfjord. The E16 road between Oslo and Bergen passes through Flåm and Gudvangen. This route takes around seven and a half hours.

Before coming to the Sognefjord you will drive the world's longest road tunnel, Lærdal tunnel. The tunnel is 24,509 metres long. Driving through a long tunnel might not sound very exciting, but parts of the Lærdal tunnel are illuminated in beautiful colours that gives you a sense of being in an exciting subterranean world.

Borgund Stave Church in Lærdal municipality is also well worth a stop. It is considered as the best preserved medieval stave church in Norway, and is an impressive sight. Nowadays, the stave church is a museum church, although the churchyard is still in use.

Back on track on your way to Bergen, you should also visit the impressive Stegastein viewpoint near Flåm at an altitude of 650 metres, with views across the Aurlandsfjord. If you're not scared of heights, that is! Tourists from near and far have described it as a must to see.

This route takes around 8 hours. If you decide to drive the Haukeli route, you will have a fantastic opportunity to see the Hardangerfjord, Norway's second longest fjord after the Sognefjord. The route passes Odda, which is close to the starting point of the popular Trolltunga hike.

There are many wonderful viewpoints along the fjord, for example from Norheimsund, where you even get a glimpse of Folgefonna – Norway's third biggest glacier – in the distance. It is also well worth stop

To get the most out of the scenic views, take a detour from Odda along the fjord via Eidfjord. This will add another 1 hour and 15 minutes to your driving time. From Eidfjord you can drive to Bergen via Nordheimsund or via Voss (20 minutes shorter).

Driving Oslo - Bergen in Winter
We do not recommend driving Oslo - Bergen in winter. This is due to the winter conditions that changes quickly and any drivers should have experience in driving in snowy conditions. The roads get icy and the visibility can be poor.

However, this said; it is possible to drive, but it is vital to check the weather forecast often and close up to when you are driving. The roads in winter gets closed frequently and some sections are only open for driving in escorts. (you have to wait in line for an escort vehicle can take you through). In Norwegian this is called "kolonnekjøring".
