From Travemünde you take an overnight ferry to Trelleborg and arrive in southern Sweden the next morning, well-rested.

After arriving in Trelleborg, you'll travel to Ystad, famous for Henning Mankell's "Inspector Wallander" novels. Not far from Ystad is the impressive 6th-century stone setting "Ales Stenar." You'll then drive along the coast to the small town of Karlskrona, beautifully situated in the archipelago.

Today's route takes you along Kalmar and, if time allows, briefly to the island of Öland, before reaching the medieval town of Söderköping on the famous Göta Canal. Overnight stay in Norrköping.

A detour to the small town of Trosa with its wooden houses is worthwhile along the way. Afterwards, the journey continues to the Swedish capital, Stockholm, at the mouth of Lake Mälaren, one of Scandinavia's most diverse and beautiful metropolises.

Sweden's capital is surrounded by water. The metropolis lies on both Lake Mälaren and the Baltic Sea. Its architectural and cultural diversity delights every visitor to Stockholm. Lovers of castles, churches, and museums will find just as much to enjoy as those seeking the vibrant city life. Design your day in Stockholm exactly as you wish.

Today we head north. Uppsala, one of Sweden's oldest cities, is famous for its cathedral, castle, and venerable university. Continuing via Gävle, considered the gateway to northern Sweden, you'll travel to Hudiksvall. This city lies on the Gulf of Bothnia and boasts a charming district called Fiskarstaden. Overnight stay in Hudiksvall.

On the way to Umeå, a visit to the former royal residence of Härnösand is worthwhile. The local coastal region of Höga Küsten (High Coast) has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Umeå, a city once ravaged by fires, is known as the "City of Birches." The tree-lined avenues built there served as fire protection. The nearby Gulf of Bothnia offers beautiful beaches. Meanwhile, in the city of Luleå, the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Gammelstaden" is well worth a visit.

Experience the nature of Lapland! Today's journey takes you through deep forests via Gällivare to Kiruna. Kiruna is known for the world's largest iron ore mine, which is causing the city to gradually relocate. The new city center was unveiled in 2022.

Today you'll cross the border into Norway, traveling along the edge of the Swedish Abisko National Park with its beautiful mountains and wide open spaces. After a short time, you'll reach the city of Narvik, which lies directly on the water in the fjords of Northern Norway.

The day will be dominated by fjord and mountain landscapes, as well as a fascinating archipelago – the Lofoten Islands. Your destination for the day is the main town of the Lofoten Islands: Svolvær. Here, we recommend taking a fjord cruise through the Trollfjord!

The picturesque villages of Kabelvåg and Henningsvær invite you to linger. Your journey takes you to the southern tip of the archipelago. Reine is one of the most photogenic places in Lofoten. It lies on a bay surrounded by islands and imposing mountains. Overnight stay in Sørvagen.

Enjoy the idyllic island scenery one last time before taking the ferry from Moskenes to Bodø at midday. Nearby lies the Saltstraumen, the world's strongest tidal current (maelstrom). Bodø itself was the European Capital of Culture in 2024 and boasts several museums.

Your route continues south. You'll pass Svartisen National Park, which is ideal for hiking. Here you'll also find the large Svartisen Glacier. Passing Mo i Rana, you'll later reach Mosjøen, your destination for the day.

Today you have the choice between the fast route through the interior or the route along the Helgeland coastal road. The small port town of Namsos is beautifully situated right on the water.

Following the Trondheim Fjord, you'll reach the coronation city of Trondheim after a short drive. Trondheim was Norway's first capital and boasts a history spanning over 1,000 years. Enjoy a stroll through the city and visit some of its ancient sites, such as Nidaros Cathedral or the fortress island of Munkholmen in the fjord.

For the drive to the northern fjord region, we recommend the route via the impressive Sunndalsfjord. A detour to Eikesdal is worthwhile for one of Europe's highest waterfalls, Mardalsfoss (possible between June 20th and August 20th). Molde is nicknamed the "City of Roses" because roses still grow there thanks to the mild climate. Overnight stay in Molde's city center. Alternatively, you can drive via Kristiansund and admire the famous Atlantic Road, a masterpiece of engineering.

A superlative fjord route awaits you today. Near the picturesque town of Åndalsnes, the winding roads of the famous Trollstigen are a first highlight. Afterwards, the route leads to the beautiful Norddalsfjord and back up to the Eagle Road, which leads behind Lake Eidsvatn to the town of Geiranger. The ferry crossing through the short, narrow Geirangerfjord to Hellesylt is sure to be a memorable experience. Waterfalls and remote old farmhouses, seemingly clinging to the steep slopes, create a unique panorama. From Hellesylt, the route continues via Stryn to Loen.

A beautiful leg of the journey to the Sognefjord leads along the Gaularfjell mountain road, offering spectacular viewpoints overlooking the Fjærlandsfjord and Jostedalsbreen glacier. After a short ferry crossing of the Sognefjord, you'll reach Bergen via the town of Voss. The port city of Bergen is idyllically situated on the water and surrounded by seven mountains.

The ferry, operated by Fjord Line, leaves the port of Bergen at midday. Overnight stay on board.

You will reach the Danish port of Hirtshals early in the morning. From here you will begin your individual journey home.
