Why Visit Flam & Ride the Flam Railway

Why Visit Flam & Ride the Flam Railway

Compactly set in a fjord and surrounded by pure nature, Flam is a petite village that attracts travelers who would like to take a break from the city rush.

This place is perfect for various outdoor activities that can be found in your Norway trip planner: hike up the nearby Aurlandsfjord and Naeroyfjord fjords to enjoy the breathtaking panoramas, or participate in a bike tour to see the roaring waterfalls. The list of things to do during your Flam travel is literally endless!

Apart from getting enchanted by the beauty of Flam's nature, make sure to degust some traditional beer and taste unique delicacies in the local bar. In the summertime, juices and ciders made from locally grown berries are especially refreshing!

The main attraction here is the scenic mountain railway that holds the title of one of the most picturesque rail journeys in the world. Smoothly twirling around the hills, waterfalls, and valleys, this train route provides some genuinely awe-inspiring views making your heart skip a beat. Moreover, during the ride, you go from the Myrdal station located high in the mountains and travel through the deepest fjord in entire Europe called Sognefjorden.

To learn more about the construction of the legendary Flamsbana railway, don't miss a chance to pop in the Flam Railway Museum situated right at the town's central station.
