The train will take you from beautiful fjords to the wild mountains in only one hour. Once onboard, all you need to do is sit back, gaze through the large windows and enjoy your journey through a landscape of wild magnificence full of contrasts.
The train will run incredibly slowly through the most spectacular scenery and make photo stops at the famous Kylling Bridge and at Trollveggen, Europe’s highest perpendicular mountain wall. The beautiful emerald-green River Rauma will follow you, right outside the train window, for much of your trip.
The river’s character is constantly shifting – one moment flowing gently between small beaches of white sand before transforming into a wild torrent, cascading down rapids at breakneck speed.
