I went bikepacking alone in Arctic Norway, following the amazing cycle paths and tracks away from Tromsø. Norway is an incredibly beautiful part of the world and I can’t wait to come back here in the summer at some point!

Wow, what a finale to 2023! A real ice adventure and beautiful scenery and photography. That burger place… talk about divine timing 😅
Can't wait to see what adventures you get upto In 2024 👍👌
Fantastic, I so want to go to Norway
What a great way to wind the year up. It also shows what a great if chilly adventure you can squeeze into a short time. This one defo beats your Cairngorm one for chill factor.
Looking forward to more in the new year. Wishing you and your family a lovely Christmas.
Exceptional video! Inspiring stuff
What a journey !. It reminds me of mine last year. I started my cycling journey from Tromso to Sommaroy. But I did it during Autumn. It was really tough for me since I didn't bring the proper gear. I nearly catched my death in a small quiet town in Brensholmen before reaching Sommaroy.
Great video as always, nice and relaxing. Keep up the good work 🚴🚴🚴
Amazing views!
I enjoyed the video, and am enjoying your channel. I would love to win the presta valve caps.
Another gem. Can't believe you ate Rudolph.
A bit chilly for me, but its great video.
Great short trip that👍👍🍻
What an inspirational video. It makes me want to take on a similar adventure. It would make such a trip more special with some Brick Caps
What a brilliant show. I live in Australia and they are predicting a hot summer which is very different to Norway. Great video and thank you!
What a cool 🥶 adventure you had, got me thinking
stunning
Great video Norway always looks the best, what winter gloves are you using??
Hello Tom. Why in winter?
Lovely video. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful video! It's a pity that due to a malfunction of my left leg, I can't ride a bike in winter… I have to wait for spring.
Lovely crisp views.Glad you you had time🥶
As every of yours movies – fantastic! But even to watch it is so COLD 🙂
Thanks for the beautiful video. The scenery (and your cinematography) were amazing. I particularly enjoyed the behind the scenes information. Thanks so much!
Great 2023 ending film! I am from the USA and I noticed that people boarded the plane from the outside — we only do that in very warm climates, so I was quite surprised at that. I was also wondering whether they have moose there? If so, did you see any? I'm glad you found a place to sleep indoors when you really needed it. Looking forward to next year's films. 😊
Looks like an amazing adventure! Did you use winter studded tyres, or just normal ones?
A brave venture, given the time of year – and I think you made the best of it, aided & abetted by the magic farmhouse! Serendipity is alive & well in Norway. With me, years ago, it was a tiny log cabin that emerged like a mirage from the horizontal snow, with room for my bike, my shivering wet body and a heap of wood ready chopped for the miniature stove. Ragnarøk was averted that night! When you go back to Tromsø in 24/7 daylight, BTW, the island of Senja is an absolutely jaw-dropping destination, if you want to combine biking & hiking. Every bit as impressive as Lofoten but without all the crowds …
What a coincidence! I am going to Norway 21st December to 2nd Jan. . I am trying ir from Oslo anlog the coast ( If possible), and try to go to Trondheim (if possible). So from South to East. How much money do you think I should bring ? For the ferrys or something? Have you got any good tips for thte trip? I'd like to camp in nature too, if it is not to cold. Do find Hotels or places to sleep in a very short time if it's going to be too cold? You would really help me with this. Beause I could not find any good Forums.
Greetings from Germany!!
Inspirational videos please keep them coming. I also like the informative segment following the video. Chapeau 😊
What a great video, I would love to see the northern lights
That’s fatbike county
Wonderful video, my first of your to watch!
❤❤
Stunning video Tom, hopefully you will put a video up of all your 2023 tours. Keep up the content and look forward to more in 2024👍
This is sick man!!!
Amazing! I'm sure it would be an even better summer trip!
Good effort cycling in the snow.
Cracking video 👍
Will be watching a lot more in future!
How many liters was that front bag
Did the farmer freeze and batteries
Certainly an interesting adventure to complete the year – many thanks
Stunning video, and great effort even for the thought of camping in that environment. Curious about your gloves and shoe setup to cope in those conditions?
