A live stream on Youtube shows us just how breathtaking Norway is from the Bergen Line and Flåm Railway. One of the most breathtaking scenic views in all of Europe may be had while traveling on the Bergen Line. Onto the Hardangervidda plateau, the largest high mountain plateau in Europe, it crosses the Hardangervidda National Park.  The Bergen Railway, which connects Oslo and Bergen through the mountains, was established in 1909. These are Norway’s two biggest cities. With a height of 1,222 meters above sea level at the Finse train station, the Bergen Line is the tallest railway in Northern Europe. Gol, Geilo, and Voss are just a few of the well-known ski destinations that are traversed by the Bergen Railway. All along the railway line, there are various locations that provide appealing summertime hiking touring options. One excellent example is biking on the Rallar Road (Rallarvegen).
