Travelling by train is the ultimate way to enjoy your journey, while also doing your part to help the planet. Since the Scandinavian nation is known to value health, wellbeing and sustainability, Norway train travel makes a lot of sense. The country’s mighty mountainous terrain and expansive fjord-filled landscapes were made to be admired in a leisurely fashion, a privilege which train journeys afford. Settle into a plush train carriage and allow yourself to be whisked from Oslo to Myrdal and Myrdal to Flam, on what is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful train journeys in the world.

"Emily was incredibly helpful in suggesting an itinerary which met our needs and sorted everything out. She was also brilliant when I had to query our options to rebook (due to a family medical emergency). Thankfully, we didn't need to do this in the end, but Emily's assistance during a tricky time was much appreciated. Everything was great, too many great moments to mention. Good of the team to arrange for the Northern Lights to appear though!"

"Our consultant was fantastic to deal with - always extremely friendly, always listened and wanted to get it right for us. Communication was always excellent with the Concierge, too. The trip worked really well. We loved all the different hotels we stayed in and the absolute highlight of the trip was Svalbard."

"We loved the trip. Norway is so beautiful, the hotels were full of character, the food was great and we did some really fun activities. Our teenage children loved the activities, with canyoning being a particular highlight. It also really helped that our consultant had just been there, as we spent just the right amount of time in each place. The app worked really well, and I liked the suggestions in the Dossiers."

Begin your Norway train travel adventure in the pocket-sized capital of Oslo and stretch your legs with a bike tour of the trendy Scandinavian city, before boarding your train and journeying to the country’s more remote corners. Along the way, make sure to do plenty of window-watching, as the voyage from Myrdal to Flam is often considered to be one of the most beautiful train routes in the world. The fabulous views don’t stop once you’ve reached your destination; swap your train carriage for a car in Aurland and journey up to the Stegastein viewpoint, which towers 2,100ft above Aurlandsfjord and boasts breath-taking panoramas across the mountains.


Norway train travel can also take you to the coastal city of Bergen, home to Sognefjord, the country’s longest and deepest fjord. Board a ferry that will transport you along the fjord and ensure you have your camera on hand, as this route is particularly snap-ready. With train travel being as much about the journey as the destination, we can add in plenty of stops along the way for soaking up some Scandinavian culture. Enjoy the indulgent custom of fika (a coffee and cinnamon bun break) in Aurland, learn more about Norwegian folklore in Skaldegard and visit the country’s smallest post office in Styvi.
