would like to do this next year,as i,ve no chance this year

 

There is some hotels in Sarpsborg, Quality hotel there is very nice, whit waterland, about 20 min. drive from Rudskogen

 

How long is that ferry crossing then must be a good day long trip

 

Aye mate, from memory I believe it leaves around 6pm and arrives at 1pm the next day. That was the plan anyway, revise the following road trip, show, track and drinking plans. Then get wasted on the boat

 

Great plan, must take a beer and two whit you also then

 

Where can I find out about prices for that ferry please mate as would be good to have a few more people to follow over

 

Can't miss us and the caravan with beer chocked up to the windows

DFDS mate, go out on the 10th July, back on the 17th. Ł200 round trip Plenty of food and a bed in the caravan so a mix of us can sleep in turns....doubt we will much!

 

Watch out for the norwegian customs, they'll want your beer As we're not part of the EU, the rules are very different. If you dont have any other alcohol you are allowed to bring a whole 5 litres of beer each. If you have spirits as well you are only allowed 2 litres of beer each, and 1 litre spirits each... Welcome to Norway!

 

Thanks for the heads up I don't think we'll have that much beer, more food than anything else. Enough ale to get us through part of the trip and then purchase more around the site. Can't wait

 

Cool cheers mate will have a look when I get chance

 

Looked into it a bit more this morning and it's about a 10 hour drive once over there,drive through Denmark past copenhagen and up past gothenberg to Norway and it doesn't look to far from the border to the track,driving that way round misses out the ferry crossing from hirtshals to larvik which is about 11 hours on it's own

 

Cochyn be careful, alcohol (and everything) is expensive in NOR heh

 

its a fucking long drive that pal theres a ferry goes to gothenburg from tilbury it would be the better option

 

Hirtshals-Larvik will be waste of time, Frederikshavn-Gothenburg is a better alternative then

Sounds like you've been here before

 

Yeh but how long is that ferry going to take,it's 19 hours roughly on a ferry from harwich to esbjerg so will probably do that route even then it's still another 9 or 10 hour drive the other side

 

easyjet ??

 

If you get the ferry to Larvik, you'll have to get another ferry across the Oslo fjord between Horten and Moss, then drive down south again towards Rudskogen.

 

Yes I have ! From Nordkapp to Ĺ (Moskenes), from Oslo to Tromsř, from Trondheim to Lillehammer. Actually that's the first time that I felt poor visiting a country

 

Easyjet doesnt fly to Norway

 

I will be there again this year, i prefered the drive from Calais...............fantastic drive!!

 

Oh no worries mate, been to Norway quite a few times in the past. Even did the Ice Hotel with the wife a few years back....epic!
Beer gets more expensive when you're playing in a brass band for the European Championships....painful trip!

Can't wait!

 

Thats the boring way though lol

 

How long is this ferry trip please if you know

 

No I won't be getting the ferry to larvik

 

@ jonesymk2

Just do the same trip we're doing mate, cut out the hassle of figuring it out If you want rough time of travel, just type in the from/to destination on google and complete the short route planner on U.K. ferry site and they'll give you start and arrival times along with a price

 

Which route are you going when your over the other side though

 

Will be good to see you again I like that trip too, as long as I'm driving a car that wont fall apart halfway



Depends on which ferry you use, the Stena Line express takes 2 hours

 

I go Dover, Calais, Ferry from Puttgarden (Germany) > Denmark over the bridge into sweden then into Norway

 

Christ mate, that's a long, tedious drive. Just do Harwich to Denmark and drive from there. Cheaper and quicker run

 

Room for a little one if i go on the pay role

 

Always room mate

 

Im defo doing Holland with you this year, providing the other fella doesn't go.

I'll call you tomorrow for a catch up seens as you didn't call me back.

 

someone will

 

yeah but unless you do those jobs you aint quite got round to yet i reckon you will brake down around..............dunstable

 

Funny that cause car has been used everyday for the last 2 months and it's all ben fine
