How to Book Train Travel From Oslo to Bergen

Bergen is a city with medieval architecture and a modern, international outlook, and it's well worth taking the train trip from Oslo, especially as this trip is renowned as one of the world's most breathtakingly lovely train rides. On the ride you will see both spectacular mountains and sparkling fjords as you travel from Norway's central region along the beautiful southern seacoast and over to the western coast.

      Choose the number and type of tickets you need. Business travelers and those who need to feel constantly 'connected' may wish to consider the 'Komfort' accommodations, which feature not only roomier seats but also laptop and cell phone outlets. Travelers who wish to relax and enjoy the scenery, however, will find nothing to complain about with regard to the economy seats on this 6 to 8 hour trip.

      Pick up your tickets at the Oslo train station before you travel. Be sure to allow for some time before you have to board the train, in case there is a long line at the ticket window. Lines can be particularly long during the Christmas or Easter holiday weeks or during the height of summer vacation season.
