Simply Sweden Recommendations
There is lots to do and we recommend a visit to the tourist office. There are several fjord excursions including the Hardanger- and Sognefjords. The famous Flåm railway is easily accessible and the train to / from Oslo offers spectacular scenery. A guided walk is a good idea to obtain local knowledge. Admire the views from the funicular (in the city) or take the cable car to the top of the 'seven mountains'.

Flåm is situated at the end of the Aurlandsfjord, an extension of the famous Sognefjord. Flåmsbrygga translates as ‘Flåm Brewerey’ and is home to world class beer, winning 3 medals at the world beer brewing championship in 2012.
