TRAIN
Station Name: RENA
Due to a severe storm, train tracks in various parts of Norway have been heavily damaged. This has resulted in all freight trains being rerouted through this station. Consequently, many passenger train services have been replaced with buses, and a few routes have been cancelled.
However, a limited number of trains are still operating. These take approximately two hours from the Airport. While some departures are direct, most require a transfer at HAMAR. At HAMAR, you'll need to change to the train leaving from Platform 2, heading North-East towards Rena (in the direction of RØROS or TRONDHEIM).
Tickets must be purchased from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo Airport) to Rena. Please note that the last train from Oslo Lufthavn typically departs at 18:59, except on Saturdays when it leaves at 14:59. Always check the train schedule prior to booking your flights. Additionally, we can offer extra nights at the hotel for €50 before or after the camp, should this better align with your travel arrangements.
