Flam Norway

[yakers]

Currently in Flam, wonderful train ride, beautiful fjord, tomorrow to Bergen. Actual sunny day after watching reports last week of big rain & flooding, feeling blessed, a ‘blow the dough’ trip but worth it.

I was recently in Bergen. The train ride from Bergen to Oslo is so magnificent. Didn’t have time to go to Flam but got to see some pretty impressive Fjords.

We took that Flam-Myrdal train ride two months ago.

Nice trip, but I have to say it was not as exciting as the Durango-Silverton train.

I’m thinking of doing that next summer. Did you stay overnight in Flam? What other things have you done in Norway?

We took a trip to Norway in 2016. Flew to Bergen and drove around from there, then flew to the Lofotens.

Is that you on the cliff?


Very beautiful!

Very beautiful!

Yes, with DW.

 

[Koolau]

Yes, with DW.

I've done some aerobatics in an aircraft but I don't think I'd sit on the cliff. Wow. A picture for the ages.

I would love to make that trip! My roots are in Norway, Sweden and just across the Baltic Sea in the old Prussia area of Northern Germany. Ant tips on the best way to take that trip?

Am I the only one who thought "What problem does yakers have with Norway and what sort of expletive is 'flam'?" when first seeing this thread title?

 

[NW-Bound]

By the way, I learned when there that Flåm is pronounced more like Flom than Flam.

I know that I would not sit on it. I would get dizzy and fall off.

I've taken the train a couple of times between Olso and Bergen (great ride, recommended!) and it usually stops for 5-10 minutes at Flam. Definitely a beautiful area. But I think all of Norway is beautiful and I love to visit anywhere there.
