Rail journeys in Norway

A richer way to understand the destination.

Norway rewards travelers who make the railway part of their sightseeing. Compare fjord-side branches, mountain crossings and northern routes by geography and daylight rather than assuming they share the same timetable or onboard service.

A well-chosen rail journey can become the centerpiece of a wider holiday. Consider the season, route direction, service class and comfortable time before and after boarding. Email our travel specialists with your priorities and we will help shape a journey that feels complete rather than simply assembled.

Arctic Train: Narvik to Bjørnfjell

Arctic Train

This scenic journey follows Narvik – Bjørnfjell and centres on arctic fjords and mountains. The train leaves Narvik and follows the railway into increasingly rugged surroundings on the way to Bjørnfjell. This makes the rail corridor itself the destination rather than simply a means of reaching somewhere else. Plan the rail portion first, then add independent time at the destination where the booked service allows it. Confirm the dated route, seating and return or onward arrangements before committing to the rest of the day.

Bergen Railway: Oslo to Bergen

Bergen Railway

This scenic journey follows Oslo – Nesbyen – Myrdal – Bergen and centres on norwegian mountain crossing. Leaving Oslo, the train progresses through inland communities and mountain country before the route turns towards western Norway and Bergen. Myrdal is an important connection point for the separate Flåm Railway, but breaking the journey there requires a deliberate ticket and timetable plan. Plan the rail portion first, then add independent time at the destination where the booked service allows it. Confirm the dated route, seating and return or onward arrangements before committing to the rest of the day.

Flåm Railway: Flåm to Myrdal

Flåm Railway

This scenic journey follows Flåm – Kjosfossen – Myrdal and centres on fjord to mountain. The railway follows a steep valley setting through tunnels and open sections, with the changing height providing much of its drama. The operator advertises a short stop at Kjosfossen waterfall before the journey reaches Myrdal. Plan the rail portion first, then add independent time at the destination where the booked service allows it. Confirm the dated route, seating and return or onward arrangements before committing to the rest of the day.

Rauma Railway: Dombås to Åndalsnes

Rauma Railway

This scenic journey follows Dombås – Bjorli – Åndalsnes and centres on romsdal landscapes. The line begins at Dombås and passes Bjorli before descending into a landscape where the valley sides become increasingly imposing. The Rauma river and the engineering needed to follow this terrain give the journey a strong visual identity. Plan the rail portion first, then add independent time at the destination where the booked service allows it. Confirm the dated route, seating and return or onward arrangements before committing to the rest of the day.
