Its a nice drive, but only if you make the day or half-day out of the the whole archipelago. For example - start a day in Bud or Molde, progress slowly across the Atlantic Road itself, stop in the visiting center and take a stroll, build a stone tower near the sea, stop in Kristiansund, visit the old German WW2 forts in Bud and Kvalvik - that sort of itinerary. Otherwise it is just a drive, and in terms of Norway not even THAT scenic. It is ok to be in that part of Norway and NOT to take that drive:).

OK. It's great to follow the coast. But Norway is full of amazing scenery. I expected a number of iconic bridges, but it was disappointing. The hump bridge is cool, if not a lot smaller than expected. There is a care close by which is very small. The walkway is nice and very easy access. Wouldn't go too far out of my way to visit

To be honest I was expecting much more but with the exception of the humped back bridge and a couple of other points of interest this was fairly standard stuff. The weather was pretty bad which meant that being out and about on foot near the bridge was not an enjoyable experience. At least that had a small cafe nearby that served lovely cake and coffee!. With that said though the walk around the gantry behind the cafe did provide some interesting views of the landscape.

We travelled along the scenic "Atlantic Road" which links the mainland with islands across part of the Atlantic Ocean - hence the name. We were on a coach tour from Kristiansund to Kvernes. We stopped at the excellent visitor centre and viewing area at Eldhusoya, prior to crossing the Storseisundet Bridge, which is probably the most impressive on the road. The road and scenery are definitely worth seeing but probably only as part of a tour including other areas
