This special trip is called Norway in a Nutshell. Showing you a big cross-section of the country in just one day.

The scenery keeps getting more spectacular as we climb through the central regions of Norway, getting a little bit like Switzerland with tall mountains in the distance and glaciers, with lakes where the water is clear blue color.
We change trains mid-way at Myrdal and board the Flam railway which is one of the most scenic rides in Europe. It travels about four miles from the mountain tops down through seven lush valleys to the waters below in the Sognefjord, Norway’s largest fjord. There we catch a boat to Bergen through the Sognefjord. There's lots of great scenery during the boat ride, with the mountains towering high above on both sides of this chasm.

I have been fortunate to see, feel and enjoy the magnificent scenery that Norway offers to its visitors. I traveled by train from Oslo to Bergen. I stayed in Bergen a couple of nights, then I took a bus to Odda to hike Trolltunga. I came back to Oslo by bus through another route. Definitely Norway is beautiful!

I am a Bangladeshi citizen Apoorba Rahman, one of the biggest wishes in life is to hope and live in Norway. I want to live a life of happiness, peace and harmony. I want to sow that seed there. I don't know when it will happen but I really want it. Norway is the country of dreams.

In 1968 I took a train from Oslo to Trondheim... It was an amazing trip and I treasure the memories of it to this day in 2020... Norway is a very beautiful Country and is much like British Columbia where I am from.

[@denniscallan]

That's wonderful you remember it so well from so long ago! it demonstrates how impressive the trip is.

[@rogersmith5371]

In 2017 in October/November I travelled through Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland with my wife. Most of our travel was by train. We took this trip except that we went all the way to Bergen by train - missing the Flam unfortunately. We then took a trip up the fjord and also to the trip to the top of the mountain behind Bergen. The journey across Norway was spectacular with wonderful scenery, lovely snow covered areas up into the mountains and beautifully green coming down the mountains into Bergen. All the trains were clean, on time, featured free wifi and USB charging points at the seat. I'd recommend this trip to anyone wanting to explore this region of the world. We flew back from Bergen to Oslo which was a lot less interesting but took about 40 mins. Later we took the train from Oslo to Trondheim which was also a great scenic trip. Thanks for posting your video and reminding me of the trip.

My first trip in Norway from Oslo to Bergen was in 1988, but my favorite place was Follebu the Viking Antik king Olav palace, near Lillehammer, my second favorite place is Lofoten island. Greeting from Morocco.

Beautiful. I was 20 when I took a train from Oslo to Bergen. I still remember the beautiful scenery. It was just a delight. I also remember the Fana Folklore, a traditional wedding, that we attended. The sun only went down at midnight. Wonderful wonderful experience.

[@ingriddubbel8468]

Its still light at midnight in the summer. The sun just gets sort of twilightesque for a few hours.

[@sarayan.3467]

At midnight?

[@fromnorway643]

@@sarayan.3467 The sun _does_ set at midsummer in southern Norway unlike in the north, but you can hardly see any stars at midnight because the sky is too bright.

I just did this train ride between Oslo and Bergen a few weeks ago. It was so wonderful I did didn’t want to get off the train, even after almost 7 hours or so. The train was so comfortable and the scenery was nice. I feel like this was my best train ride ever. 👍🏼

Great to hear!

Tq for your wonderful video. It certainly brings back all the awesome memory of Norway which we covered in 2010! Yes, still vivid in memory! We did the Norway in the nutshell, spent two nights in Bergen, Oslo, & Alesund where we took the Hurtirigen cruise to Geiranger fiords.

[@norapagayao5937]

Hello there! Is this a round trip ticket?

[@Tasikime]

@@norapagayao5937 yes indeed. But you pretty much can short trip or long trip. We stayed in Bergen overnight and back to Oslo the next day. İt is a long trip. From memory you can use the national rail to flam and then catch the ferry.

[@sharonnygaard8862]

Thank you for this video that I could watch. I’ve been to Norway and these areas that you showed but of course they are so much better than when I was here in 1970 but I enjoyed it and never ever forgotten it. We were with our two girls and my husband and I.

I promis you. Flåm/Flam is a beautefull place. I remember I was on a big cycletrip over Norway, and we ended up in Flåm.. That was something new from my home city Skien in Norway.

I took this train and boat route in 2010. It was awesome. I will say the train ride back to Oslo is quite long, so plan to stay on the west coast for at least overnight. I did the round trip in 24 hrs, my friend had to be back to work. While you are out west go to Stavangar it is worth seeing too.
