Rallarvegen the Navvies'Road) is the old construction road along the Bergen line from Haugastøl to Myrdal and further on to Flåm. A cultural, bicycle, and walking path, built in the years 1895-1902, the trip was named Norway's most beautiful bike path several times.

Because of the altitude difference from Haugastøl, (988 m), round Taugevatn (1301m) to Flåm (2m), it is recommended for cyclists to travel westwards. The route is closed for vehicles approximately 15 km west of Haugastøl at Storurdivatnet (1140m), and it continues purely as a trail/cycle-track the rest of the way.
Further along, at 1222 metres above sea level, you pass Finse, Norway's highest railway station. For the nerd in you - this is also where the scenes on Hoth, the ice planet, for "Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back" were shot.
The final 20 km goes through Flåmsdalen, a valley famous for its beauty and one of Northern Europe's most exciting railway journeys. The line falls 865 m over the course of the valley starting with 21 switchbacks next to an impressive waterfall.
