- Episode 1 - Stadlandet - Cycling The Atlantic Coast - Norway
In early May 2023, I set off to document Norway's most famous long-distance route. The Atlantic coast, which is part of the Eurovelo 1, is perhaps the most spectacular coastline in the world. This 6 episode series will take you beyond what you may have seen on youtube before. We pull out all the stops to capture this unique area in all its wonder and beauty. Join us for an incredible ride to the Arctic.
Episode 1: We begin this journey in Bergen, where we take Norway's famous coastal liner Hurtigruten up to the small remote town of Måløy. From there, we cycle some of Norway's least visited areas and capture incredible mythical footage of a land on the edge of the world.

Slartibartfast did a great job designing Norway, so beautiful, never expected a surf beach, thanks for posting.
He made it so beutiful that he desided to clean it every day,, hence, the rain.. (old westland joke)
I hear Slartibartfast won an award for his work on Norway.
He apparently had endless fun doing the fiddly bits around fjords...
This is a gem, Matthew! Extra credit for its production value.
I wish I knew why watching your films makes so emotional. Huge thanks. Maybe next year
I've driven all these routes a few times, and it still amazes me why those areas between Måløy and Ålesund don't see more tourists. That said, they're excellent alternatives to get away from the main tourist haunts. :)
I love it when people advertise places and routes off the beaten path. Many of the more well-known sites receive more than enough visitors already. Watched a docu some years ago about how the local police and Red Cross were overwhelmed by the number of rescue operations they had to conduct for unprepared tourists hiking to Trolltunga, for example. Getting tourists to spread out more means more people get to experience those places, local shops, guides, hotels, and so on get more business, and the more popular sites get some relief. Win-win.
Next level video! Great! Waiting for the next epic episode 😮
What, Never knew u were here. Måløy is the town i grew up in. Subbed to you couple of years ago
I love the proncounciation you landed on for Måløy xD
I love how the raindrop hanging off your nose catches the light. Magic 😂. Fantastic video. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey with us
Thanks for watching, more magic to come 🙃
Fantastic landscape (Norway is my favorite and I can see it is yours too). Amazing video, thanks for sharing.
I'm so into these up and coming stories. Kudos to the stellar work by Gunstein operating that drone. His operating really put this work to the next level.
Another cracking video! Good to see you back out on the bike. I love these videos. 😊
More to come! :)
Great video. On my bucket list!
Insane Matthew, Hopefully ill make another trip to Norway
Your storytelling skills are off the chart, Matthew💪 Thanks for making videos like this. Very inspirational and really makes me want to ride my bike in Norway👍
Good to hear, thanks!
Speechless, as always! You are the man, THE man! Each story is an addiction, it’s so well created, so well put together 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks!
Goosebumps !! Beautiful video in beautiful landscapes
Many thanks!
that's a bucket list for me!! Cheers
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. This was some great escape from reality. Really looking forward for the next episode!
Lovely video! I've spent a lot of time in this region and I absolutely love the nature and scenery. Looking forward to watching how you portray my hometown of Ålesund and the local area.
So Amazing Matthew! Thanks again for inspiration! The production quality is another level. What a journey!
Thanks!
Really solid piece of filmmaking. Very good work. Gunstein Myre’s solid work in the chase car and building the sequencing with his shot selection afforded you the room to concentrate on the storytelling. What truly elevated the piece is the time and effort you spent in post. From the opening graphic of the route, to your pacing, to your color correction… each element creates a strong and cohesive whole. Finally, your music choices were spot on. Never cloying, always amplifying the emotion, advancing the narrative with its own voice. It is clear these are a labor of love, and the care shines through in every frame. Nice work.
I appreciate your feedback especially considering your experience and knowledge on editing and film making. I just watched three of your videos. Outstanding work. Great story telling, a wide variation of professional shots, and remarkable editing techniques (Especially on your latest video about Bergen). Keep the channel going!
@@matthewnorway Well, this certainly was another level. Quality photos! Well done. But don't get too fancy, Matthew. Amateur is good. And we need to be reminded of the struggles, the mistakes, the moaning and what have you on bikepacking tours as well.
Beautiful once again! Thank you.
Bra Jobben Matthew and team... Your videos are improving a lot and make us more jealous and at the same inspired to cycle more and explore Norway. You are a true Legend Matthew 🫰😁🤙💪✌️🙌
Thanks, James!
I did Stadtlandet and Vestkapp five days after I did Norangsdalen in June 1990 and one year after I did North Cape. Vestkapp was pretty poor compared to NorthCape and Norangsdalen and I have forgotten most of it. But I can brag that I have been to the most western and northern piece of rock of Norway. That is the purpose of Vestkapp. I still got the diploma I bought at Vestkapp.
I've been toying with a thought about a little cycling trip to Stavanger (yeah, my bike is called Stavanger) from Finland, either from Oulu where I live or from Helsinki where my bike manufacturer is based on. These videos do not help at all to calm down the fever! Although I've only recently started to sketch my route, I wish I could be already riding and making my way to Norway.
I fell in love with cycling in Norway when I cycled from Olderfjord to Alta and from there to Kautokeino via the Arctic Post Route up on the Finnmark and I've been wanting to get back there ever since. The scenery and harshness and sheer beaty of the nature is just so overwhelming wherever you look.
And Matthew, please keep up the awesome work you do but remember to take some time for yourself as well and leave the cameras home once in a while!
I wish you well with your Norway route planning! And don't worry, I have many rides without the camera :)
Thank you so much Gunstein and Matthew for warming my heart and giving me a dream that I will follow one of these days.
it's funny that you've been in BRØNNØYSUND,because NRK's sommer show beginns exactly there😃This year it is cycling. It's a bit minute for minute show.😀
Stunning video work, thank you.
Many thanks!
I’m looking forward to the Hoddevik episode. That climb has been on my todo list for quite some time.
Such high quality content!
Thanks!
beautifully inspiring. thank you
Thanks for watching :)
Another masterpiece of visual storytelling! Thank you Mathew!
very nice picture and music, unreal views - thanks for such beauty! I wish you success! 🍀
Many thanks!
When you run out of words (even though you have a way with them), I get it. Norway is beyond words, simply majestic-heaven on earth if there ever is one. I can’t wait to go back and experience it in all its splendor on a bicycle. Your channel and content will be of great inspiration when I get to plan my trip.
I’ve been to Geiranger, Øye, Ålesund and I think you’ll take us to some of these places? Can’t wait. And can’t wait to put others on my bucket list.
Thank you for this amazing content and inspiration, Matthew!
Thanks for watching! Øye, Ålesund and Geiranger coming up in Ep.3.
Fantastic landscapes in Norway. Great editing and narration Matthew. Very enjoyable. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks so good, what a place! 😱
When is Restrap coming to Norway!?
@@matthewnorway Hopefully soon!! :D
Awesome video, good job!
Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, I hope you managed to get up to Norway in August. I hope in 2026 they start the Newcastle - Bergen ferry again, it's a shame there is no direct route anymore.
Another great video mate. Would love to explore Norway by bike. I might need a support vehicle though. Meanwhile I’ll just watch your videos👌🏽
👍
Stunning landscape
Love it, I cycled from London to Norway a few years back. Did not get that far north though.
I am not the least bit of a cyclist but a huge fan of Norway and you show this country at its best! TOP. Thank you for your wonderfull videos full of inspiration for the next visit. There is one thing to add. As far as I know every weather forecast is split in south and north of Stadtlandet for it is such an important weatherbarrier.
legendary stuff mate...great editing and writing...way to put into words how cycling really feels
Appreciate your feedback, thanks!
Fantastic video, as usual. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures.
Thanks for watching!
I moved to Norway in 2011 (from UK). Best decision I ever made. BTW... MÅLØY. Å - pronounced like 'O' in GOT. Ø - pronounced like 'U' in GUT. Something close to 'moluy' in English. :)
Thanks!
Fantastic work Matthew!!! Rival and exceed NHK Japan, cycling journeys of Japan.
Appreciate your comment!
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing. Your helmet won't protect you if it is not secured.
Too funny, Elvis, in Norway.
Ah yes! Most enjoyable 😅
I'm not a bit jealous that you live and cycle in such a beautiful country 😂😂. Steve
Amazing videos. They are so inspiring and I am now destined for cycling Norway instead of the Alps. So much better now than your earlier videos where it was hard to find where you were on google maps. Now you show much more city names and locations. But there is still place for improvement. For instance I can not find the valley you cycle in from 10.32 in this video. It would be just perfect with even more texts to show where you are, so it is easy to find on Google maps.
some places are so smal, maybe they are not on Google maps ,but worth finding😀
Hey Mathew, you are really dragging me into it … starting for the EuroVelo1 from Bergen … in 2 weeks!
After all that months of preparing my bike, the still remaining question is „fenders on the GravelBike, or not“ for the journey to Nordkapp?
😅😅😅😅
Most people who do long distance routes in Norway add fenders. You will experience wet days and they will help keep you and your bags a bit cleaner. But they aren't essential, and do add additional weight.
Ps: Good luck and safe travels to Nordkapp! It's an incredible experience. facebook.com/photo?fbid=648256117340764&set=a.468638205302557
..when I go up hills on a bicycle - it really dont feel like "its the most effective way of transport" - a condor soaring up a hillside beats me every time...
👏👏👏
What makes the climb especially hard is that you get that false sense of 'this is easy' when you've ridden along those lakes for a while when you see that 6km to Vestkapp sign. But then the climb starts and when you think you're about to get to the top, you see that road snaking to the left of you and you know you've actually only just started.
Was there on a sunny day during the summer holidays. Doesn't feel as remote then, with a lot of people enjoying the fantastic views.
I totally agree with you. I underestimated that climb but it's well worth the struggle! Was there many cars at the top during summer?
@@matthewnorwayway more than I expected, at least. And a good part of those were camper vans. And the road isn't that wide.
Ålesund yesterday?
Dude amazing video, but am I the only one who's like, why have your helmet on if it's not done up? Helmets have saved my life twice and my wife's life once, but they were secured properly. Dude you are a legit cycling influence now, please display robust safety advice, especially if you are encouraging new cyclists to unknown and cold/wet terrain.

Nice!
I wish I knew why watching your films makes so emotional. Huge thanks. Maybe next year
