County Road 613 (Norwegian: Fylkesvei 613) runs between the village of Dragsvik in Sogndal Municipality and the village of Moskog in Sunnfjord Municipality in Vestland county, Norway.

Until 2010, the 80-kilometre (50 mi) long road was part of National Road 13 but administrative reforms passed this part of the road to the county. This part was renamed County Road 13, and the rest is still National Road 13.

In 2019, the road was renumbered to County Road 613, as a part of a reform aiming to have separate numbers of National Roads and County Roads. After this only National Road 13 has number 13 in Norway.

County Road 613 and a short section of County Road 55 are designated as one of eighteen National Tourist Routes in Norway. The road crosses the Gaularfjellet mountains.[1][2]
