Train from Abisko to Narvik

Today we took the train from Abisko to Narvik. This is one of the most beautiful railways in the world. Unfortunately our train was running more than an hour too late which made taking photos difficult because it was getting dark (not that we had any direct daylight here ;)).

First the railway goes along the south cost of the Tometräsk lake.


Towards the Norwegian border the mountains become higher and there was more snow.




I think this photo is already in Norway. There is no visible border and there are no passport controls (Norway signed the Schengen treaty although no EU member).


This valley is actually the beginning of a fjord.



One of many fjords in Norway:




Almost in Narvik:
