If you have extra time it is highly recommend that you take the short detour of approximately 20 kilometeres, with the Flåm Railway when you arrive in Myrdal. This will take you down to the village of Flåm, in the innermost corner of the Aurlandfjord. The Aurlandsfjord is an arm of the mighty Sognefjord.
