Myrdal

The upper Flåmsdalen valley defines the setting of Myrdal — its steep descent toward the Aurlandsfjord has made this high-altitude settlement a railway junction rather than a conventional town. Myrdal station, about 866 metres above sea level, stands on the Bergen Line, which links Oslo and Bergen across Norway’s mountain interior. From here, the Flåm Railway drops through the valley towards Flåm, passing the Kjosfossen waterfall on its route. The Bergen Line opened in 1909, while the branch to Flåm was completed in 1940, giving Myrdal a lasting role in Norwegian rail travel.
