Such an amazing experience!! The best way to see Norway. I road around, camped, and saved money on fuel. With a bike I got to avoid the camper congestion.

Definitely recommend renting from Nordic riders. They had really great advice and are very knowledgeable. Everything was smooth and easy. Stored my excess luggage during my 2 week adventure. And most importantly they are really friendly and care about making things go well in such a variable environment.

Rented the royal enfield Himalayan 👌🏼

I had such a lovely experience at the Nordic Riders opening🤩I could really feel how special this place is. The location is great and the atmosphere is full of passion and good energy. Simona and Misha are incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming. They don’t just rent out motorcycles – they genuinely care about helping people have an amazing experience, with great tips on where to go and where to stay. If you want to explore Norway on two wheels, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommended! 💯

What a wonderful experience working with Misha and Sima. From the first email I sent inquiring about renting for August, to switching up and quickly arriving in June, they were professional, friendly and very accommodating. They answered all my questions, guided me in choosing a great route and were quick to respond while I was on the road and had questions. I will use again and again for sure. And their little boy Nico, absolutely adorable. This family is wonderful, work with them whenever you can. Oh and the bikes were clean and comfortable with everything you need for 1500km around Norway.

What motorcycles do you offer for rent and why?

We specialize in adventure-ready Royal Enfield motorcycles, perfect for Norway’s diverse terrain. Norway has limited highways and is all about scenic routes, winding roads, and lower speed limits. Because of this, massive 1100cc+ touring bikes aren’t, in our humble opinion, the best choice. Instead, we believe a mid-range, comfortable, and agile motorcycles are the ideal option for fully enjoying the landscapes without unnecessary bulk or cost.

How does Nordic Riders rental process work?

Counted by Day: Rentals are charged per day.
Flexible Pickup and Return: Pick-up and drop-off at your chosen, pre-aligned time, possible between 9:00-17:00.
Traveling from Abroad? Bring your valid motorcycle license recognized in Norway and your proof of identity (passport or national ID card for EU citizens).
Deposit: A refundable security deposit of 5 000 NOK in cash is required at the time of rental (or equivalent in USD/EUR/GBP).

What is included in your daily rental rate?

All our daily rental rates already include:
Unlimited Mileage – Explore without limits.
Hard Panniers – Carry all your essentials.
Phone Holder – Navigate with ease.
Full Insurance – Ride worry-free.

This is a very high (and for Norway unusual) package of perks already included in the daily rental rate.

How long in advance do I need to make the booking?

It all depends on when you are planning to come, for how long, and with how many people.

For guided tour operators wanting to rent out our whole fleet, we recommend booking as early as a year in advance.

For individuals and larger groups planning tours during July or August, you might need to book more than 6 months in advance to secure your dates and enough bikes.

For a solo rider coming in May for 5 days, you should be fine to book a few weeks in advance.

Where can I pick up the motorcycle?

We offer free motorcycle pick-ups at our garage or motorcycle pick-ups directly at Oslo Gardermoen airport for extra charge.

How can I obtain the lowest rates listed on your website?

The most economical rates we offer are for longer period rentals (10 days +) during shoulder months.

Can I leave my extra luggage at your garage while riding?

Yes. You can leave your extra suitcase with us free of charge.

Can I ride on your motorcycle from Norway to other Nordic countries?

Yes, with our written permission reqested at least 3 days before pickup. For providing the necessary international documentation and insurance certificates, a fee of 400 NOK (excl. VAT) applies.

You are responsible for bringing and sourcing any mandatory safety gear (e.g., reflective vests or first aid kits) required by the countries you visit. Travel to Russia, Belarus, Kosovo, and the Asian part of Turkey remains strictly prohibited.

General Questions About Motorcycling in Norway

Why is Norway a great destination for motorcyclists?

Norway offers an unparalleled riding experience thanks to:

Ever-changing landscapes – From deep fjords and towering mountains to winding coastal roads
Midnight sun & northern lights – Unique natural phenomena depending on the season
Freedom to roam – Wild camping rights allow on uncultivated grounds
Toll-free roads for motorcycles – Save money while exploring (except for some private roads and ferries)
Polite & disciplined drivers – Making riding safer and more enjoyable
Rich Viking and cultural history – Scenic routes pass by historic sites, stave churches, and UNESCO heritage locations

Every turn brings a new breathtaking view, making Norway one of the most scenic and rewarding destinations for motorcyclists.

When is the best time to ride a motorcycle in Norway?

The riding season in Norway is from April to October.
April: Good. Doable depending on the weather. No crowds. Good for exploring the South. Cheaper.
May: Great. Fewer crowds, beautiful spring scenery. Cheaper.
June – August: Awesome. Warmest temperatures. A bit more people. Best for going North.
September: Great. A bit cooler again with fewer crowds. Stunning autumn scenery. Cheaper.
October: Good. Doable depending on the weather. No crowds. Good for exploring the South. Cheaper.
Spring and autumn can be unpredictable. Always check real-time road conditions at Vegvesen.no.

What is the average summer temperature in Norway?

Norway’s summer (June–August) offers long daylight hours and comfortable riding temperatures. In 2023, Oslo’s average daily high was around 22°C (71°F)—cooler than Berlin or Paris but warmer than London. It’s the perfect escape from southern Europe’s heat.

What are some of the best motorcycle roads in Norway?

Norway has 18 Official Scenic Roads, designed specifically to showcase the country’s natural beauty. These roads are divided into regions:

Western Norway (Fjords & Coastline)
Atlantic Ocean Road – Stunning bridges over the sea
Geiranger-Trollstigen – Famous hairpin bends & fjord views
Aurlandsfjellet – “Snow Road” with dramatic landscapes
Hardanger – Ride through Norway’s orchard region
Ryfylke – High mountains, deep fjords, and waterfalls
Hardangervidda – Norway’s highest plateau

Central & Eastern Norway (Mountains & Valleys)
Sognefjellet – The highest mountain pass in Northern Europe
Valdresflye – Open landscapes with panoramic views
Rondane – Serene mountain scenery

Northern Norway (Arctic & Coastal Roads)
Helgelandskysten – 6 ferry crossings along a breathtaking coast
Lofoten – Jagged peaks rising from the sea
Andøya – Arctic coastal cliffs and wildlife views
Senja – Wild and rugged northern landscapes

Lesser-Known Scenic Roads
Jæren – Rolling coastal farmland
Gaularfjellet – Switchbacks and waterfalls
The Old Strynefjell Road – A historic route through the mountains

In addition to these, we offer The 4 Nordic Riders Routes, which connect the best roads in various regions as part of our E-Book Guide – The Essential Guide To Motorcycling in Norway and various Guided and Self-Guided Tours.

Tour Planning

What are the best routes for a motorcycle tour of Norway

If you have 2 months to tour Norway – ride it all!

If your time is limited, this becomes a question of how many days you have for the tour and what your riding preferences are.

We offer The 4 Nordic Riders Routes, which connect the best roads in various regions as part of our E-Book Guide – The Essential Guide To Motorcycling in Norway and various Guided and Self-Guided Tours. Various routes were designed for different amounts of days riders have for their tour.

We also provide Tour Planning Consultations to help you resolve any tactical and logistical dilemmas and ensure your ride is nothing short of epic!

What is a realistic daily riding distance when traveling in Norway?

Because of Norway’s unique geography—winding fjord roads and frequent ferry crossings—your average moving speed will realistically hover around 55 km/h.

This translates to:
150 km/day — The “Slow & Adventure” Pace: Perfect for a relaxed, adventurous holiday. A couple of hours of riding per day can be combined with other experiences like hiking to a viewpoint, kayaking a fjord, or exploring a historic village. You will feel regenerated and inspired.
200–250 km/day — The “Moderate & Leisure” Pace: The standard tour pace. You will get 4-5 hours of clean saddle time on twisty scenic routes, with plenty of leeway for exploring, relaxed lunch stops, and early arrivals to your end-of-the-day accommodation.
250–330 km/day — The “Full-Day Explorer” Pace: The riding-centred tour. Your days will start early, and they will be packed with awe of the ever-changing landscapes; the riding will go on until near dinner time. You will be tired in the evenings, but left with amazement and a sense of accomplishment. We only recommend this with a well-prepared plan.
350 km+/day — The “Transit Route” Pace (Not Recommended): Pushing past 350 km/day can, in Norway, turn into 8-12+ hours of intense, exhausting saddle time. It is not a sightseeing pace; it leaves zero time for the classic Norwegian experience, thus, in all honestly is a waste of your money when it comes to riding Norway.

Do you offer tour planning support for guided tour operators?

Yes! Please contact us for more info.

Local Laws Regarding Motorcycle Riding

What are the key traffic laws for motorcyclists in Norway?

Speed limits:
110 km/h (68 mph) on highways
80 km/h (50 mph) on rural roads
50 km/h (31 mph) in cities
30 km/h (19 mph) in residential areas and near schools
Headlights must be on at all times
Zero tolerance for drinking and riding (legal limit: 0.2‰)
No off-road riding – Norway instead offers huge variety of scenic roads, hidden mountain roads, remote transfers, and secret trails.
Bus lanes: Motorcycles can use some but not all – check signage
Traffic laws are strictly enforced, and speeding fines can be very high!

What kind of motorcycle license do I need to ride in Norway?

You need a motorcycle license (A1, A2, or A) depending on the bike’s engine size:
A1 (light motorcycles up to 125cc, 11 kW)
A2 (motorcycles up to 35 kW)
A (full-power motorcycles)
If you’re from outside the EU/EEA, an International Driving Permit (IDP) may be required in addition to your license. Please check this carefully before renting a motorcycle with us.

Do motorcycles pay road tolls in Norway?

No, motorcycles are exempt from road tolls! However, some private roads and all ferries require payment.

Road Conditions & Ferries

How are the road conditions in Norway?

Roads are well-maintained – some are deliberately designed to serve as tourist scenic roads
No long highways – expect scenic, winding roads
Frequent ferries – check schedules if planning long-distance rides
Weather changes fast – be prepared for sudden rain or colder temperatures (outside of summer months)

How do ferries work for motorcyclists?

No need to book in advance for most ferries (some offer half of the tickets online and half only on site)
Motorcycles board first and leave first
Costs depend on the ferry and distance

Logistics

Is Norway expensive travel destination?

It depends on your travel style. While luxury hotels and fine dining are expensive, Norway offers many affordable and authentic experiences. You can legally wild camp for free almost everywhere or stay at cozy campsites, you can enjoy free sea fishing, cook over a fire, or try local street food. The options to decrease the cost of your trip are endless. Plus, free drinking water is always easily available.

Which Oslo airport should I choose when booking my flight?

The main airport serving Oslo is Gardermoen Airport (OSL), located about 35 km (22 miles) north of the city. It is the best choice for most travelers, offering the most flights, easiest transportation options, and the shortest travel time to both Oslo and Nordic Riders motorcycle rental.

Can I wild camp during my trip?

Yes! Thanks to Allemannsretten (the Right to Roam), you can camp for free in nature, as long as you stay at least 150 meters from houses and respect the environment. There are also campgrounds, cabins, and motorcycle-friendly hotels available.
