Marvellous Escapes
railtour suisse · Rail journey

Experience Norway's stunning fjords on a railtour train journey. Discover picturesque landscapes, steep mountains, and majestic waterfalls.
Use the time to explore the Norwegian capital Oslo with all its famous sights such as the Vigeland Sculpture Park, the Viking Ship Museum and the Munch Museum. The climb up to the new opera house is just as worthwhile as the short trip up to Holmenkollen with its ski jumps. An additional overnight stay in Oslo is recommended depending on flight schedule.
Today you travel on the Bergen Railway from Oslo to Myrdal. Past charming villages and along deep blue lakes, the train steadily gains altitude until it finally reaches the Hardangervidda high plateau. At Myrdal you change to the spectacular Flåm railway, which runs through wild and beautiful landscapes with waterfalls and steep mountain slopes.
Use the morning to discover Flåm and its surroundings on a hike, kayak or bike tour. In the afternoon, take the ferry across the Aurlandsfjord and the Nærøyfjord to Gudvangen. The journey continues by bus through the Nærøyfjord valley. In Voss you board the Bergen Railway again, which takes you on to Bergen.
This day is at your leisure. Visit the sights on your own: the Bryggen Hanseatic area, the Fløi railway, the house of composer Edvard Grieg (Troldhaugen), the fish market, the Bergen Aquarium and the Bergen Open Air Museum.
