Arctic Train
Make a trip to the Swedish boarder on an historical train. Fantastic views and incredible story

The Ofot line stretches from Narvik in Nordland to Kiruna in Sweden, making it Norway’s northernmost railway line. The Arctic Train transports you 43 kilometers through a beautiful and wild scenery, from the fjord in Narvik, passing the gorgeous mountain landscape up to Bjørnefjell, and on to Sweden. The historic events dating back to WW2 serves as a dramatic backdrop for the experience.

‍JOURNEY THROUGH A BEAUTIFUL SCENERY
Majestic mountains, beautiful waterfalls and stunning views are just some of the things you get to experience on this journey. The train slows down several times during the trip to ensure you catch all the highlights along the tracks. Download the “Voice of Norway” app, and listen to the stories about the area you are traveling through.

Join an exciting Northern Lights chase on board the Northern Lights Train! Far up in the mountains, away from the bright city lights, you have a great chance of catching the Green Lady dancing in the sky. The first stop on the journey is Bjørnfjell, by the Swedish border.
