Alta to tromsø
From Alta we follow the coastal route west. After climbing Kvænangsfjellet (400 masl) we take our first normal ferry across to Lyngen. This is our first chance of escaping the main road (E6), and it will be welcomed. Tromsø will be our first major city on our trip, before heading further west over Kvaløya and Senja to Gryllefjord
This stage is 465 km and will take us about 3 days.
