OUR BASE
62° Nord
Explore the land of the fjords and then relax in luxury at two of the finest hotels The Sunnmøre Alps have to offer. With a mix of contemporary Nordic design and world-class service, Hotel Brosundet is the perfect start to your trip. Sitting on the banks of the water in Ålesund - a UNESCO world heritage site - this newly renovated listed building hosts 131 beautiful rooms, all centred around a spectacular central fireplace that takes inspiration from traditional Viking communal hearths.
Cradled between the mountains on the shores of Norangsfjord, Hotel Union Øye is where the kings and queens of the past fell in love with the fjords, and it’s waiting to host you for the remainder of your trip. Grand, opulent and charming, it’s the perfect base to explore the beauty of the Øye valley and taste the flavours of Norway.
RIDING
The Land of the Fjords
Ålesund and the Sunnmøre region is an area known for its untouched and spectacular nature, secluded fjords and majestic mountain tops. Led by Thor Hushovd, Adam Blythe and a group of ex-pro riders, you’ll be shown the hidden beauty spots only the locals know. Whether you’re looking for a challenging climb or you’re just looking to take it all in, we’ll find a ride for you.
DINING
A Wild Food Haven
Our team of chefs and Sweden’s open flame master - Niklas Ekstedt - will be drawing inspiration from the surrounding flora and fauna to create your post-ride feasts. The forests are abundant with wild herbs, mushrooms and berries ripe for foraging, while the fjords and ocean are teeming with life. Depending on the season you can expect the freshest cod, halibut, salmon, oysters, lobster and crab. Drawing on ancient methods of fire cooking, smoking and preserving, each meal celebrates Nordic Cuisine in a modern wild way. Be it freshly brewed coffee, local apple cider or matured wheels of cheese, our strategic pitstops on the road will keep you fuelled and happy.
