Le petit village de pêcheurs de Grense Jakobselv sur la mer des Barrents marque le début de la Véloroute du Rideau de Fer. La grande agglomération la plus proche est Kirkenes, une ville de 3500 habitants, dont la majorité est d'origine norvégienne, mais comprend également des minorités sami, finlandaise et russe. La frontière entre la Norvège et la Russie était l'une des deux seules frontières terrestres entre l'Union soviétique et les territoires de l'OTAN pendant la guerre froide et, de ce fait, elle était fortement gardée par les deux parties.

Certifié
These sections were awarded the official EuroVelo Certification label, ensuring high-quality
cycling conditions.They were surveyed in the field by EuroVelo Route Inspectors to respect
minimum requirements for motorised traffic levels, surface quality, EuroVelo signage,
and access to services as defined by the European Certification Standard (ECS) methodology.
EuroVelo Certified routes are the best options for beginners!
Developed + Signed
These sections offer generally good cycling conditions, with limited motorised traffic, rideable
surfaces, and EuroVelo signs along the route. Developed routes with signs are suitable for most
cyclists. However, short stretches with lower-quality conditions may occur, and it is recommended
to bring a map or navigation app as signs can have defects.
Developed + Not Signed
These sections offer generally good cycling conditions, with limited motorised traffic and
rideable surfaces, but without EuroVelo signs. Developed routes without signs are suitable for
most cyclists. However, short stretches with lower-quality conditions may occur, and it is
warmly recommended to bring a map or navigation app.
Partially Developed + Signed
Cycling is possible here, but conditions vary. Some stretches may have high motorised traffic
or poor surfaces, even though EuroVelo signs are in place. Partially developed routes with
signs are suitable for experienced cyclists only, and it is recommended to bring a map or
navigation app and check national/regional websites for more information. ECF and National
EuroVelo Coordination Centres are working on improvements.

Undeveloped / Unknown
These sections do not meet minimum requirements for motorised traffic levels or surface quality – or
their conditions are currently unknown. They may include dangerous stretches. Cyclists choosing
to cycle there should use a map or navigation app and check national/regional websites for more
information. It is recommended to use public transport to skip these areas where possible.
Connection en transports en commun
These sections include continuity across seas or rivers and undeveloped parts of the network
that can be skipped with a reliable public transport connection allowing bicycle transport.
