Practical Information for Flamsbana Travelers

Luggage guidelines on the Myrdal to Flam line include rules for carry-on items. Since the trains are older heritage models, storage space differs from mainline services:

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may bring standard travel bags. However, due to the vintage nature of the carriages, it is recommended to keep items compact to fit in the designated areas without blocking the narrow aisles.

Storage Facilities

Carriages feature overhead racks for smaller bags and floor space at the ends of the cars for larger suitcases. During peak season, storage can fill up quickly as many travelers are on multi-day fjord tours.

Special Items

Bicycles can be transported if space permits and require a separate ticket purchase. Large sports equipment should be kept in the cargo area if available on your specific departure.

Rail travel is the only direct public transport link between these points, as no roads connect Myrdal to the valley for standard vehicles. While hiking or cycling the Rallarvegen is possible, the train provides the fastest way to descend. Flying is not an option as there are no airports at either location.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
