    Finse

    Posted by Kito 23 July 2007

    This place is on the roof of Norway. It is only accessible by train - the mainline Bergen to Oslo.

    Fantastic hotel Finse 1222 with great views over glacier. The walks along the old navvy road are excellent.

    "The roof of Norway"
    Use Hotel Finse 1222 as a base for adventures in the Norwegian mountains.

    There are excellent walks and cycling opportunities along the old Navvy Road. Ask the stationmaster for the best routes by hopping from station to station - they are spaced about 15km apart.

    The walk from Hallingskeid to Myrdal, down through the tree line, is unmissable, while, the railway museum at Finse is incredibly informative.

    This hotel is only accessible by train on the Oslo - Bergen mainline. See:
