About the Navvies' Road (Rallarvegen):
As the name suggests the Rallarvegen road dates back to the time when the road was used by navvies during the construction of the Bergen Railway. Today Rallarvegen is best known as a cycle route of exceptional beauty, offering a multitude of experiences.

Rallarvegen starting point
The Rallarvegen starts in Haugastøl and climbs steadily up to Finse, a distance of 27 km. There, at an altitude of 1,222 metres, you can pay a visit to Rallarmuseet, the navvies’ museum, where you can discover how navvies lived and the tools and aids they used in the construction of the Bergen Railway. Stay overnight in Finse so that you are rested for the next day's leg of the Rallarvegen. If you have extra time, Finse has a lot to offer - the Hardangerjøkulen glacier, glacier walks, galleries and an unspoiled landscape.

Rallarvegen stops
The next compulsory stop is at the signalman's cabin, Fagernut Vokterbolig. The house, dated 1904, is the highest of its kind in Norway at 1,310 metres. There you will find a café and an exhibition about life as a signalman high up in the mountains.

Hallingskeid to Vatnahalsen
The section from Hallingskeid to Vatnahalsen is for many the most spectacular legs of the Rallarvegen, with steep slopes and wild, thundering waterfalls. From Vatnahalsen you can continue either through the Flåmsdalen valley to Flåm, or cycle to Myrdal, take the train to Upsete and cycle on to Voss.
