Short answer

Yes, the Flåm Railway runs all year, and the winter timetable from November 2026 to March 2027 has departures every day between Flåm and Myrdal. The ride up to Myrdal takes about an hour, and there are fewer departures on 24, 25 and 31 December. At Myrdal you can change to the Bergen Railway towards Oslo or Bergen.

Why

  1. The railway's official site lists the season as all year and shows departures every day in each timetable period, including 1 November 2026 to 31 March 2027.
  2. The line is 20.4 km long and climbs 865 metres from Flåm, 2 metres above sea level, to Myrdal.
  3. Close to 960,000 people rode the Flåm Railway in 2024, with the heaviest traffic in the summer months.

Details

Myrdal is the station where the Flåm Railway meets the Bergen Railway, so the two lines are easy to combine in one trip. One-way tickets that combine both lines are sold by Vy. Holders of Eurail and Interrail passes with an active travel day get 30% off single tickets.

Tip

Around Christmas, check the timetable for your exact date, since 24, 25 and 31 December have fewer departures than normal.

What may differ

Departure times can differ between timetable periods, and the railway notes that all information is subject to change.
