Itinerary description
|
Second stage of the Oslo fjord: Leaving the Thon hotel in Horten, travel about 60 km to reach Sandefjord. 5 km from Horten there is a Viking cemetery with graves and a small museum (interesting visit). You can also stop at Asgardstrand, to visit Eduard Munch's summer house, and stop at Tønsberg, Norway's oldest town, now a quintessential holiday resort for Norwegians with pasta. Arriving in Horten, a city with tradition in whaling, and there are many allusions to this activity, including the interesting visit to the whaling museum, which although you are detractor of the hunting of these cetaceans, like me, I was curious to see the skeletons of these giants on the lower floor and some details. The route is very simple, along roads, tracks, bike paths, trails and low traffic roads.
