Finse is a tiny mountain settlement in Norway, located along the Bergen Line between Oslo and Bergen. With no road access, the only way to reach it is by train, making the Finse railway station a unique stop at 1,222 meters (4,009 feet) above sea level – the highest in the country. The Finse webcam looks out over this remote station, where tracks run through a high-altitude landscape surrounded by open terrain, glaciers, and frequent shifts in weather.
The area is known for outdoor activity. During summer, cyclists ride the Rallarvegen trail that passes right by the station. In winter, snow covers everything, and the region becomes a hub for cross-country skiing. Not far from the station lies Hardangerjøkulen glacier, once used by polar explorers for training. Despite its isolation, Finse attracts hikers, researchers, and visitors looking for quiet and space.
The Finse webcam gives a live look at this high-mountain environment – trains arriving and leaving, low clouds moving through, and snow or sunshine depending on the season. It’s a slow-paced place, but that’s part of its appeal. The view reminds you how different life is at elevation, especially when you’re watching from sea level.
