Cycle along the Milky Way

Mjølkevegen is considered one of Norway's most beautiful cycling routes. The 250 kilometer long route stretches from Vinstra in Gudbrandsdalen to Gol in Hallingdal and goes through an open, living mountain landscape with summer farms, pastures and extensive views. The name comes from the time when the road was used by dairies to collect milk from farms in the area.
The route offers a wonderful mix of old gravel roads, small lakes and babbling brooks, blooming summer meadows and traditional farm life. You cycle through mountain terrain and it is close to nature, peaceful and authentic – a journey through the Norwegian cultural landscape at its finest.

Choose between three programs

Northern Mjølkevegen is the most mountain-close, magnificent and demanding part. It is fully feasible for experienced fitness enthusiasts but feels more like a mountain adventure. The level is 4, with up to 63 km per day and climbs of 1000 meters elevation.

Southern Mjølkevegen suits you who want to cycle at a calmer pace and enjoy the grand landscape with plenty of time for breaks and stops along the way. The level is 2, with stages of up to 35 km and climbs around 400 meters per day.

The entire Mjølkevegen includes the best stretches from both parts and you get to experience how the landscape changes from valley to mountain. The level is 3 with more variation in difficulty between days.
