Norway Roadtrip Advice

Our take

Hey adventure seekers! Planning a road trip in Norway sounds absolutely epic! With 14 days to explore, you'll have the chance to experience breathtaking fjords and the stunning Lofoten Islands. Driving from Oslo to Lofoten is definitely doable, especially since you’re seasoned road trippers! If you’re looking to soak in the scenic views, driving or taking the train is a fantastic choice.

Hi everyone! My boyfriend and I are planning a roadtrip towards the end of August / Early September in Norway. We are hoping to do a roadtrip and see Fjords, Lofoten Islands, and a couple other places in between. We have 14 days total there.

How realistic is it to drive from Oslo to Lofoten Islands? Off a quick search, it seems like it is 17-20 hours drive. This doesn't seem too bad as we have done 30+ hour roadtrips before. Is there a more preferred method of travel to get there aside from flying? We would like to avoid flying and drive or take the train to get a more scenic view.

We were researching car rentals or campervans and gas seems quite expensive. So we are thinking of renting a car for the Fjords and southern areas of Norway, then take a train north to Lofoten islands and rent another car there.
