About this

The Nordland Railway stretches 729 kilometers from Trondheim to Bodø in Norway, offering a scenic journey through fjords, mountains, and forests toward the Arctic Circle. Passengers witness dramatic landscapes, including the Saltfjellet plateau with its tundra-like expanses and the chance to spot the midnight sun in summer or northern lights in winter, all aboard comfortable trains that connect urban hubs to remote northern wilderness.
