For my roadtrip (renting a car, self-drive) - here is what i have planned so far...
For Day 7, i am kind of torn as to which route to take from Geiranger, 6216, Norway to Sogndal ?? -- the Sognefjell route, the Strynefjell route and the Geiranger route. i am looking for a route with the best scenery ?? which one is considered the Geiranger route (and will i be passing through Jotunheimen National Park along the way or is it a detour) ?

Is there a car agency in Sogndal to drop off the car?
You might want to read my trip report on Norway which included 6 days of driving from Bergen to Trondheim. https://flic.kr/p/7qoFmR Scenic enough? |

Check on the need to have a transponder. Roads leading to large cities will have an untended toll station a few miles out. I could not figure out how to pay with cash or credit card. I did not notice a transponder on my rental, and sometimes just skirted around the toll station, and never heard about it. But I was driving a Norwegian rental which might come with a transponder or a vignette. New tunnels also charge a toll until their construction is paid off.
Bring a light sleeping bag insert for the times when bedding is provided at an extra cost. This was the case in student housing a Alesund and in cabin rentals such as these: https://flic.kr/p/7qoGix |
