General driving information
In Norway, common passes for road toll and ferry exists. However, it is not expected for tourists to acquire these for their private car. For
tourists, all toll road and ferry fees will be sent to you by post as an invoice later on. Should you still insist, it is possible to order a "pass deal" through either Norwegian
or Danish toll-pass provider companies.
Unfortunately, the 95 E10 petrol has now been introduced in
Norway. However, quite a few gas stations still sell 98 (E5)
without ethanol (Shell & most of ESSO petrol stations).The 98 quality petrol is not available in Geiranger, but this quality will be possible to buy at petrol stations on your tours on
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday! The EHM2023 road book will provide detailed info to this subject!
It is not possible to preorder space on Norwegian domestic ferries. Nevertheless, it's absolutely essential that you preorder tickets on the ferries
between Denmark, Holland or Germany to Norway. June is high season!!
Parking
When arriving Geiranger at Union Hotel Monday afternoon, the first thing that will meet you is our EHM2023 Marshals responsible for a
safe and correct parking. Please pay attention and follow their instructions as to where and how you shall park your car. The spot they guide you to, shall be your spot to use throughout the
entire EHM2023 week.
Cash
The use of cash in Norway has more or less subsided and electronic payment service has taken over and most debit and credit cards
are generally accepted. However, we urge you to make sure that you maintain some cash to spend for our EHM2023 prize raffle, since electronic payment will not be made available for the
raffle.

What to wear
When you registered your participation for the EHM2023, you were presented a brief day to day program. On Saturday the 17th. June one of the attractions is the
“Gala Dinner”.
Quite a few of you participating teams have raised the question of “what to wear” at the “Gala Dinner”. Since the intention was that we would only advice
“Smart casual”, the EHM2023 Committee has found it prudent to change the name of this attraction to “Farewell
Dinner”!
