Fjords, glaciers, midnight sun, the Arctic Circle and the legendary North Cape are the keywords for this adventurous motorcycle tour!
On our journey we climb the famous Trollstigen mountain pass to Trondheim, the city which is considered to be the gate to Northern Norway. We ride along remote streets and a picturesque coastal line before we eventually ride inland. Tundra vegetation replaces forests and all of a sudden there it is – the Arctic Circle. From Bodø we take the ferry to the beautiful Lofoten islands, one of the most spectacular highlights on this tour. The next day we will visit the Tirpitz museum and the geoglyphs in Alta. After an early start the next morning, we finally reach the destination of our dreams, the North Cape, and thereby conquer the most Northern point of Europe on our motorcycles! After crossing the border to Finland, endless forests and numerous lakes accompany us to the town of Enontekiö directly at the Swedish-Finnish border.
On our last tour day we ride back to Norway, whereby Tromsø will host us for our farewell evening in the high North of Europe.

This was my first trip with Edelweiss Bike Travel and I was sceptical because I prefer to ride alone. I have made many rides to Alaska, New Zealand and all over the USA by myself. So, I took a chance and signed up for the Adventure North Cape tour. What I discovered was that our group was small, with about 12 people from around the world. The trip was not just about the riding, but about the lasting friendships I still cherish. We had two awesome guides, Manuel and Michael, who worked very hard to make our time in Norway enjoyable. They explained in detail the day‘s events and what we were going to see. This just took all the stress out of the riding. This confirmed single rider is now a confirmed group rider and I have already scheduled my second ride with Edelweiss in August for the High Alpine Tour. And this time I will bring my wife.
The team of Edelweiss Bike Travel wants to say thank you to Scott Keimig for participating in our Adventure North Cape tour and for putting together such a great report about our tour in the April issue 2011 of BMW Owners News magazine.
