Baltic Sea 2022

Oslo – Flåm

On route to Flåm on the Bergensbanen. This is the highest mainline railway in Northern Europe, crossing the Hardangervidda plateau at 1,237 metres above sea level. It takes us past some spectacular scenery, including some still frozen lakes and snow-capped mountains. It started as a narrow-gauge connection between Bergen and Voss in 1883, and was extended to Oslo in 1909, and the entire single-track route converted to standard gauge. It was electrified in 1954-6.
