The train is the only direct public transport to Finse as the village has no road access. While buses can reach nearby Geilo or Haugastøl, a train transfer is still required to reach Finse itself. No commercial flights serve this mountain area. Rail travel remains the most direct and environmentally conscious way to access this protected alpine region from the capital.

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