Kjosfossen

Kjosfossen



Kjosfossen is the waterfall highlight of the Flåm Railway (or Flåmsbana). Tumbling 93m, railway passengers are treated to a stop in front of the falls and an appearance by some ladies who dance in front of it. It is the last major waterfall you see on the way to Myrdal on the train ride.

In fact, the rail way may be the best way to see the falls because you can't drive the unsealed road in Flåm Valley (Flåmsdalen) past Blomheller, which is near the half-way point to Myrdal.

However, you can walk the rest of the way to Myrdal, and with the help of the train, it's possible to take a ride to Myrdal then walk back to Flåm or catch the train again once you reach one of the many stations along the railway. There are numerous possibilities available for you to explore Flåmsdalen.
