Mountain valley landscape view from the Flåm famous tourist railway line in Norway.
The Flåm Railway is one of the worlds steepest railway lines on normal gauge. The gradient is 55/1000 on almost 80% of the line, a gradient of one in eighteen. The twisting tunnels that spiral in and out of the mountain are manifestations of the most daring and skillful engineering in Norwegian railway history. The train journey provides some of Norway's wildest and most magnificent scenery. On the 20 km-long train ride you see rivers that cut through deep ravines, waterfalls cascade down the side of steep, snow-capped mountains and mountain farms cling to sheer slopes.
