The journey on the Flam
Railway is regarded as
one of the highlights
when travelling in
Norway.

of tall mountains and
thundering waterfalls.
Along the Flam Railway
the train moves slowly
or stops at the best
views.

over the Hardangervidda
Mountain Plateau and
further through the
Hallingdal Valley.
