Outdoor activities
Atlanterhavsveien is excellently situated for many kind of outdoor activities, like hiking, jogging, bicycling, rowing, paddling, as well as diving and last but not least, fishing.
Bicycling:
This a wonderful landscape for bicycling, not too hilly. Once a year a bike ride competition is arranged which draws competitors from all of Norway. Also participants, not so competitive, are welcome to join f.i. families with children who just wants to "tag along" and enjoy the scenery.
Running:
Yearly a race for runners is arranged, called "Atlanterhavsløpet". This race draws runners from all over Norway and from Europe. There is a special class for the slower joggers and those who just want to join for adventure.
Diving:
This is a diver's paradise. The waters here are exceptionally clear and the area one of the best along the coast for subsea photography. There is more to Atlanterhavsveien than roads and bridges!
Fishing:
Park your car on one of the parking sites and walk just a short distance to the best fishing places. There you may catch a nice coal fish which tastes deliciously grilled on a campfire. Using a boat gives you even better catch. Local people have boats for rent.
"Atlanterhavsløpet" activates a lot of people.
