Inlandsbanan and Hurtigruten

Explore the best of two worlds - Inlandsbanan and one of the worlds most beautiful sea voyages Hurtigruten

The journey starts in Mora and the heart of Dalecarlia. From Östersund the journey continues up north along Inlandsbanan towards Gällivare and Swedish Lapland. Here you are surrounded by vast areas of forests, mountains and rushing water. This is also reindeer lands so don’t be surprised if you see reindeer, moose or bears along the track. Before crossing over to Norway you get to experience the Swedish Inland above the Arctic Circle, welcome to the land of the midnight sun!
Hurtigruten will take you south after a night in Harstad. You will be passing by Lofoten, spectacular fjords and nature sceneries along the Norwegian coastline down to Trondheim. Here you will get a full day to explore before travelling back to Sweden and Östersund. We highly recommend a visit to the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim - a must-see masterpiece! The journey ends in Mora. New for 2025 is that we only offer outside cabins with windows on Hurtigruten, we hope this will make your travels even better!
