Rating

Rail travel between Oslo and Lillehammer offers city-center to city-center service with regular departures and lower overall travel time compared with coach services when considering transfers. Buses provide direct but slower journeys along the same corridor and tend to be cheaper. Flights are not practical for this short inland connection due to limited airport options and additional transfer times. For most passengers, rail is the fastest and most direct option.

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