5. The Arctic Train

Chase the famous Aurora Borealis while travelling on Norway's northernmost railway!

Welcome aboard The Arctic Train on the Ofoten line in Narvik.

The journey takes 4 hours and 30 minutes in total. The first stop is Bjørnfjell, after which the train continues on to Katterat station. Bring warm clothes and a camera and join the hunt on these historic rails.
