Join us on one of Europe’s most beautiful train journeys through the varied landscapes of two countries
A perfect round trip for you who want to experience cities, fjords, mountains, and national parks in both Sweden and Norway. Over the course of ten days, you'll travel along Inlandsbanan, Mittbanan, Meråkerbanan, Nordlandsbanan, and Malmbanan railways. There will be plenty of time to see and enjoy hidden gems in both Sweden and Norway. Starting in Mora, you'll head north through Norway’s majestic lake and mountain landscapes up to Bodø and Narvik. From northern Norway, the journey continues back to Sweden, passing through Abisko National Park, where you can see Čuonjávággi, Lapporten. The train stretch Narvik-Kiruna is often described as one of Sweden’s most beautiful train journeys. You'll then travel south along Inlandsbanan with classic stops such as the Navvy museum in Moskosel, the Inland Railway Museum in Sorsele, and the award-winning restaurant Bergmans Fisk & Vilt in Vilhelmina. The journey ends in Mora. New for 2025, we’ve added two nights in Bodø in the program, giving you a full day to explore Bodø or taking the ferry to Lofoten.

+ Mora Station (the main train station/travel center, about a 15-minute walk to central Mora).
+ Morastrand in central Mora, not all trains go here, check the details for your specific train.
Inlandsbanans' trains stop at Mora Station.
We would be happy to help you book your connecting trains. If you prefer to book your connecting trains on your own, we recommend using SJ' website.
If you are traveling to Mora by car, we recommend the long-term parking at Mora Station (travel center). More information about parking in Mora can be found here under the heading "Parking solution for traveling with the inland railway."
You will arrive at Mora Station on the last day of your journey around lunchtime. If you want to stay and explore Mora, we can help you add a hotel night here.
DURING THE TRIP ALONG INLANDSBANAN, THE TRAIN WILL STOP FOR MEAL AND COFFEE BREAKS, AND IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE TO PURCHASE SNACKS AND COFFEE ONBOARD.
You can place your order on the train in advance, so when you arrive, it will be ready for pickup or seating. The food is freshly prepared on-site, and several restaurants offer authentic, locally sourced dishes. It’s a great opportunity to try new flavors and explore the specialties of the Swedish inland.
You usually pay directly to the food vendor. Where you choose to eat—at the restaurant, onboard the train, or in nature—is up to you, unless the train attendant communicates otherwise. The timetable will show where, when, and for how long we stop.
From our onboard menu, you can buy coffee and snacks during the journey, and you can also find the menu for the meal stops.
Please observe this is only on Inlandsbanan trains between Mora-Gällivare-Mora
