Driving Tips for Norway

Here are a few driving tips to keep in mind when heading to Norway:

Tunnels: Norway has many tunnels, some of which can be quite long (like the Lærdal Tunnel). Follow tunnel guidelines, keep headlights on and be aware of potential fog or ice.
Winter tyres: If you’re visiting between October and April, ice tyres are a mandatory requirement for driving and will help you navigate the roads safely.
Livestock: Norway's roads often pass through rural areas, where elk and sheep may be present. Be cautious, especially at dawn and dusk, and follow guidelines for animal encounters.
Headlights: During winter, it’s mandatory to use headlights at all times because of the limited daylight hours and poor visibility when it’s snowing.
Ferry schedules: If you're driving along the coastal routes, some roads may involve ferry crossings. Be aware of the schedules and plan your route accordingly so you don't have to wait long.

Best places to visit in Norway

Here are a couple of places to check out when you rent a car in Norway:

Trolltunga: A challenging hike rewarded with a unique rock formation, Trolltunga is roughly a 2-hour drive from Bergen. Norway car hire is an ideal option because you can drive to the trailhead at your own pace and don’t have to worry about shuttle bus schedules.
Lofoten Islands: This scenic archipelago is about a 4-hour drive from Tromsø, followed by a ferry crossing. In a hire car, you can stop at various picturesque villages and hiking trails en route and explore the area more than you could with public transport.
Geirangerfjord: A UNESCO World Heritage site, Geirangerfjord is around a 1.5-hour drive from Ålesund. A hire car allows you to drive along the fjord's scenic shores, stopping at viewpoints and waterfalls at your leisure, and take a ferry crossing to explore the fjord's inner reaches.
