here
It is probably a slight exaggeration to say that all roads lead to Geilo,
but it is quite easy to get here!
By car:
The shortest drive from Oslo to Bergen is on Rv 7, and half way between the
two is Geilo. Rv 7 over Hardangervidda
and along the Hardanger Fjord is a
national tourist route, the Hardanger Tourist Route. Rv 7 is part of the
tourist
project carried out by The Norwegian Public Roads Administration and
is well equipped with tourist information boards
and resting areas.
You can also get to Geilo on Rv 50 over the mountains from West to East.
This road goes through magnificent nature
surroundings between Aurland and Hol. Hol is 10 km from Geilo.
From Geilo Rv 40 goes through the Numedal valley to Larvik, Sandefjord and
Tønsberg. If you arrive by ferry from
