Travel with your bike


Yes, you are welcome to bring your bike on Fjord og Fjellruta.

The bus has space for several bicycles, but we recommend booking your bike space in advance so we know how many bikes will be travelling on each departure.

E-bikes are also welcome. As they are heavier than regular bikes, we kindly ask you to be prepared to help the driver load and unload them. If possible, please remove the battery before loading, as this makes the bike easier to handle.
