The scenery is well known and appreciated all over the world, the Cliffs of Moher are some 700 ft above the Atlantic Ocean and many cyclists decide to attempt this route every year.

We are not kidding. This is only for advanced cyclists. Riding the hills at your home town doesn’t prepare you for this. You will be going through the Andes, and the paths are filled with sharp turning sections, loose rocks, surprising jumps and fast downhill sections with unsafe surfaces. Even following the track is a challenge here, since there are many turn-offs, easy to miss signs and dead ends. Once again, if you do not consider yourself an advanced cyclist, you might want to skip Cancha Carrera. If you do, you are bound to have loads of fun and test your abilities to the fullest.

05. Norway, Lysebotn Road



Lysebotn Road, Norway
Norway is renowned for its stunning countryside. Wherever you look, you can see something that can blow your mind. Well, cycling through Norway must be rewarding, even if in this respect alone. Still, the cycling route from the title is all but a relaxed pedal. There are 27 switchbacks, a 0.7 mile tunnel, plummeting downhills and serpentines that will make your head turn. And all the time you can enjoy the lovely views of this sight-infested European country, as well as very smooth roads. It’s no wonder that Lysebotn Road is the most popular cycling track in Norway. If you can choose, be sure to visit in winter, since the snow makes this scenery look even better, while the roads are perfectly clear and safe to use.
