About Us

The Atlantic-Road website proposes to support and encourage an interest in the Atlantic Road on behalf of the residents of the area.

Voted as one of the best road trips in the road, take The Atlantic Road or Atlanterhavsveien, one of the great road of Norway.  Voted the Norwegian Construction of the Century it remain unsurpassed as the greatest Family Driving Outing in Europe!

Along the route are the famed eight bridges over several small islands, including the Storseisundet or "Bridge to Nowhere" which makes it is a tourist attraction and a frequent appearance on TV. 

The locals know this as a great please to go fishing and will welcome all visitors be they families on a road trip or anglers. 

The Atlantic-Road.Com is created to draw attention to and provide information on this dramatic road trip which is otherwise little known outside Norway.

By providing an English language introduction to the Atlantic Road or Atlanterhavsveien, we provide a one stop information source.  Created for Norway and other countries to be able to share information on the Atlantic Ocean road.

Hump back bridges including the world famous Storseisundet are mentioned as well as nearby destinations such as Molde.

Since 2012 Atlantic-road.com has offered to represent the interests and welfare of stakeholders in the Atlantic Road.  It is planned that the site can be a centre to share information about activities, business development, promotion and marketing on the Road.  Atlantic-road.com aims to preserve, promote, improve and facilitate businesses on the Atlantic Road.

If successful Atlantic-road.com will organize promotional events for visitors and tourists to the Atlantic Road, for example there is a proposal to have a summer Human Powered Car event, as well as an Environmental Walk.  These would be annual events intended to attract interest from around the world, create publicity for the vendors and businesses on the road and generally create a more favorable business environment.

Stakeholders in the Atlantic Road including business owners along the road, frequent visitors, and residents and businesses in nearby villages, towns and cities.  They are all invited to be associates of atlantic-road.com so that it can become a more substantial force for the good of all.  It is planned that there should be 60 members to form an Association and that this should include owners and management of hotels, as well as nearby attractions and facilities for visitors and tourists such as restaurants.

Atlantic-road.com is a privately owned and managed organization.

The intention has always been to encourage involvement with people who are passionate about the potential for Atlantic Road to become an international tourists destination.  Tourists, local residents as well as shop owners and managers are invited to participate.

When fully incorporated the proposed Association will aim to:

  • Study and improve the economic situation of Atlantic Road, through the use of surveys and targeted promotions and marketing.
  • Promote healthy business practices in conjunction with the Fjord and Norway Tourist Board.
  • Motivate and encourage residents and management to develop and manage the potential of the road.
  • Be a point of contact to encourage new business alliances and special cooperation between stakeholders.
  • Represent businesses on the street in negotiations with Government.

If you would like to put forward ideas to participate in the proposed association please contact us.
