From Flåm you will take the famous Flåm railway to Bergen. The train runs from the end of Aurlandsfjord, a tributary of the Sognefjord, up to the high mountains at Myrdal station. The journey features the finest aspects of the stunning scenery of Western Norway.

Over the course of one hour, the train takes you from sea level at the Sognefjord in Flåm to the Myrdal mountain station, situated at 867 metres above sea level. Myrdal is also a station on the Bergen Line, meaning the Flåm Railway connects with trains running between Bergen and Oslo.

The Flåm Railway is one of the steepest standard gauge railway lines in the world, with 80% of the journey running on a gradient of 5.5%. The train runs through spectacular scenery, alongside the Rallar Road, vertiginous mountainsides, foaming waterfalls, through 20 tunnels, and offers so many viewpoints that, for many people, a single trip up and down is not enough.

The beautiful train ride will take aprox. 3 '/2 hours, and you will return in Bergen at 21:15 pm. You take the train in Flåm leaving 17:30 pm. The first train (R45Myrdal) takes 55 minutes. Then you will make a change of trains in Myrdal, which is the end stop of the train leaving from Flåm. The next train called (R40Bergen) goes directly from Myrdal to Bergen at 18:48 pm at Spor 11 (Track 11).
