Introduction

The Flåm Railway is hailed as one of the world's most beautiful railways and a masterpiece of Norwegian engineering. From the fjord-side village of Flåm it climbs to the mountain station of Myrdal at nearly 900 meters, about 20 km, through steep valleys with astonishing gradients. The scenery is spectacular: waterfalls, snow peaks, deep gorges, winding rivers and hillside farms, endlessly varied. The train stops by the famous pretty waterfall for photos. Riding this legendary train through Norway's majestic mountains and gorges is an awe-inspiring visual feast, the essence of a fjord trip, unforgettable.
