Norway in a Nutshell in January 2027: in daylight or in the dark?
Short answer: On 15 January 2027: Flåm Railway (Flåm to Myrdal) at 15:50 (Fjord first, Flåm Railway in the afternoon): mostly after sunset (15:58). Sun up 09:28–15:58. The "Flåm Railway first, fjord after" version keeps it in daylight. With the usual timing, 31 of 31 days in January reach a main stop after sunset or before sunrise.
The round trip by train, bus, fjord boat and the Flåm Railway. In winter the fjord cruise is in daylight but the Flåm Railway climb, the most scenic hour, often runs in twilight or dark.
