Self-guided
Those who like good adventure and limitless flexibility should go on a self-guided cycling holiday. It offers complete freedom, multiple detour opportunities, and exploration at your own pace without having to adapt to a group.
INCLUDED
NOT INCLUDED
Carefully selected hotels, guesthouses and seaside inns, all with breakfast included. Expect comfortable, well-appointed rooms with attentive hospitality, typically in convenient and scenic locations, some properties also offer on-site dining.
Copenhagen to Oslo by bike joins two capitals, and the road between them crosses three kingdoms on one unbroken coast. Eighteen riding days lead from the Øresund to the Oslofjord, each ending at a hotel with breakfast.
The first half is the gentle one. Below Kronborg a ferry takes you to Sweden, and the Kattegattleden, Sweden's first national tourist cycle route, runs past beach towns, dunes, fortresses and Tjolöholm's Tudor castle to Gothenburg.
North of Gothenburg the Bohuslän coast turns to pink granite: islands joined by bridges and short ferry crossings, fishing villages built on bare rock, Ingrid Bergman's Fjällbacka and the Bronze Age carvings of Tanum. The old bridge at Svinesund takes you into Norway, and the last days follow the Oslofjord to its capital.
The halves ride differently. The Kattegat coast is mostly level, while Bohuslän and Østfold bring short, steep climbs nearly every day. The tour suits riders with regular cycling fitness, level 4 out of 5, and an e-bike takes the edge off the granite hills.
Hotels, guesthouses and seaside inns host you each night, and regional trains run near much of the route if a day needs shortening. Many guests ride it end to end; others pick one half or add a rest day in Gothenburg.
