Information and Maps
Every town has a tourist office , usually with a stock of free maps, timetables and other bumph. Many book private rooms and hotel beds and some rent out bikes and change money. During the high season - June to August - they normally open daily for long hours, while in the shoulder season they mostly adopt shop hours; many close down altogether in winter. The best internationally available map of Norway is the Hallwag International 1:1,000,000, which comes complete with an index. If you're buying in Norway, the Statens Kartverk map is the best option; it also includes several city maps.
