Insider tip — Geilo Thermal Spa sits at 800 meters elevation in the mountains of Numedal, midway between Oslo and Bergen on Norway's famous railway line through Hardangervidda plateau. The spa serves Norway's premier ski resort town and offers year-round thermal wellness combining heated pool facilities with mountain views. In winter the surrounding highlands transform into a cross-country skiing paradise, making a post-ski soak here a quintessential Norwegian mountain experience. The train journey to Geilo itself — through the Hardangervidda National Park — is considered one of the world's great rail routes.
