Heads Up
- 1. Book the Geiranger-Hellesylt ferry in advance during peak summer months to ensure vehicle space.
- 2. Check the status of the Trollstigen mountain road (RV63) as it typically opens in late May or early June.
- 3. Be prepared for narrow, winding roads and frequent tunnels; allow extra time for photography stops.
- 4. Pack layers and waterproof gear even in summer, as mountain weather changes rapidly.
- 5. Day 3: 5h 32m driving — plan rest stops
