Named after the legendary hero of Ibsen’s famous play, the Peer Gynt Loop offers a rare combination of challenging terrain, breathtaking vistas, and quiet roads that feel tailor-made for adventure. 

Ibsen drew inspiration from Norwegian folklore and the dramatic natural scenery of Gudbrandsdalen and surrounding highlands, which serve as the backdrop for much of Peer Gynt’s story. 

The Peer Gynt Road (Peer Gynt Vegen) and the Peer Gynt Festival, both located in this region, celebrate the folklore, culture, and landscapes that inspired Ibsen. It’s a place where fiction and reality intertwine – where the dramatic mountains, vast plateaus, and tranquil valleys embody the spirit of exploration, legend, and the timeless beauty of Norway. 

And the best way to explore it is on two wheels. 

Over eight unforgettable days, you’ll ride through some of Norway’s most striking scenery

The rolling hills of Gålå offer views that stretch to the distant peaks of Jotunheimen, while Espedalen, known as “Elgland,” introduces you to a region frequented by moose, with its lakes, forests, and high mountains exuding an untamed charm

You’ll pass glacial lakes, climb gentle ridges, and descend into valleys dotted with farmsteads, where Norway’s rural charm comes alive. The terrain varies from smooth, flowing sections to demanding climbs that test your mettle, always rewarding you with scenery that feels pulled from the pages of a storybook. 

Every day brings a new highlight, whether it’s the thrill of a descent into a narrow gorge or the serenity of cycling along the sparkling waters of Lake Losna. 

And to ensure you can truly enjoy the experience, we’ll take care of every detail. From booking cozy accommodations, creating a comprehensive digital guidebook with local recommendations and GPS routes to providing constant round-the-clock support on your tour, we make it our mission to iron out the logistics for an unforgettable cycling holiday.

My self-guided cycling holiday in Provence was everything I hoped for and more. The routes took me through stunning lavender fields, vineyards, and historic towns like Gordes and Roussillon. With the GPS and detailed route notes, navigating was effortless, and I enjoyed the freedom to linger at scenic spots or explore local markets. The accommodations were full of charm, and the seamless logistics made for a stress-free experience. Timotej and the team were always available to provide advice and ensure everything went perfectly. Cycling through Provence on my own terms was absolutely magical!
