    I had plans going to Nordkapp this summer, unfortunately to many other plans so will have to wait.

    But if of interest, I can post the Garmin route (and think maybe got google maps routes as well, in Spain at the moment so must check).

    So route mainly is in 3 parts:

    1. Transport to Trondheim. This is within reach anytime for me anyway.
    2. Follow coastal road (not main road) to Nordkapp including Lofoten. A few gravel sections that may be omitted easily (aren't that much gravel roads really).
    3. Gravel roads through Sweden back down. Mostly in the woods so don't expect spectacular scenery...but gravel for those who want to use their dual sport bike off tarmac as well (why else would you want a 19" front wheel). Mainly good roads so don't expect too many challenges.

    Hope not to off topic but since replies from guys planning to go there.

    EDIT:
    Think OK now, I clicked on link and then "Qui per vedere tutte le foto in unica soluzione" , nice pics!
