Creator's Key Takeaways

Norway really has to be one of the world's most beautiful countries.

This is absolutely one of the world's most beautiful train journeys.

Most definitely. It has to be one of the most jam-packed with scenery.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't go. Follow our lead and travel early in the day.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Break up the trip with an overnight in Flam to avoid fatigue and see more scenery.
Book the first train of the day from Flam to avoid crowds from cruise ships.
Sit on the right side of the Flam Railway for the best views, but either side is good.
Pack your own water and snacks for the bus leg, as there is no bathroom on the bus.
