PRODUCT INFORMATION AND FACTS As one of NorwayвЂ™s few private railways, we can offer a train journey through the best Norway can display of beautiful, untouched and dramatic nature. Tickets for the FlГҐm Railway, solely or combined with NSBвЂ™s (Norwegian State Railways) lines, can be purchased from all manned stations and most travel agencies, as well as from our local sales office in FlГҐm station. The FlГҐm Railway - idyll and drama The journey from FlГҐm at the innermost part of the Aurlandsfjord, up to the high mountain station at Myrdal on the Bergen Railway, is a railway experience unparalleled in Europe; 20 kilometres long with a descent of 2,838 feet and a gradient of 1 metre in 18! The gradient is unique for this kind of ordinary gauge railway, and to cope with the enormous height difference, the track runs partly through tunnels which spiral in and out of the mountainside. The journey through the steep and narrow FlГҐm Valley, with views of mighty waterfalls and mountain peaks, takes about 60 minutes. The train travels slowly and even stops at the most scenic spots. The trains from and to FlГҐm connect at Myrdal with most day-trains running between the capital city of Oslo and Bergen on the west coast. Combined and co-ordinated travels The FlГҐm Railway and NSBвЂ™s Oslo вЂ“ Bergen Railway are cooperating on the same ticket system, which gives an opportunity to have a common and a general train ticket. For co-ordinated travels on both lines, the company who issues the tickets is responsible for вЂ“ and must provide вЂ“ all necessary seat reservations for both lines. See page no. 9 for more info. Rail fares and payment Our prices for 2014 are listed on page no. 10. Note that the fares from FlГҐm to Vatnahalsen and Reinunga stations are the same as from FlГҐm to Myrdal.

After the last ice age the wild and beautiful scenery of the western Norway was formed by water melting from glaciers and rivers that carved their way through rocks from the earliest period of the earthвЂ™s history. When the ice receded, the landscape was complete transformed into the high mountains, narrow walleyes, and deep fjords you can admire if you visit our area. FlГҐm The Aurlandsfjord Aurland Harbour consists of four harbours; FlГҐm, Aurland, Undredal and Gudvangen, nestling securely in the innermost part of the famous Sognefjord. Large cruise ships squeeze through the narrow fjord arms surrounded by snow-capped mountain peaks and waterfalls cascading down the mountainside. The 204 kilometres long and 1308 metre deep Sognefjord is the second longest and deepest fjord in the world, and has been a highlight and a main attraction for cruises tourists along the Norwegian coast for many decades. 16 MORE THAN 100 YEARS OF HOSPITALITY!
