Finse is a mountain village situated at an elevation of 1,222 meters above sea level, making it the highest railway station on the Norwegian railway system. Located along the Bergen Line between Oslo and Bergen, this remote settlement has a rich history connected to polar exploration and mountaineering.
The area served as a training ground for polar explorers, including Roald Amundsen who prepared for his South Pole expedition here. The harsh climate and landscape around Finse resembles polar conditions, which has made it a significant location for both historical arctic training and modern-day research.
Today, Finse attracts visitors interested in outdoor activities, railway history, and its unique cultural heritage related to polar exploration. The village's cultural significance is closely tied to its railway station, opened in 1909, which played a crucial role in the development of this high-mountain community.
