Fv7702Fv7698Fv82Andenes to Risøyhamn
Level tarmac along Andøya’s western edge in Arctic Norway, past steep headlands and the white sand at Bleikstranda, with whale country off the Bleik Canyon. The sheep roam free here, and they know it.
A National Tourist Route along the western edge of Andoya island in Vesteralen, Arctic Norway, running between Andenes and Risøyhamn mainly on Fv82. The mostly level coastal road passes the white-sand Bleikstranda beach, steep headlands and the Bukkekjerka rest stop, in an area known for whale watching off the Bleik Canyon. Mind the exposed coastal weather, free-roaming sheep and winter ice.
