Flåmsdalen is a valley in Aurland Municipality in Vestland county, Norway, running 18 kilometers north to south and dropping 860 meters from Myrdal to the village of Flåm. The Flåmselvi river flows its length, and the valley opens northward onto the Aurlandsfjorden. It is best known for the Flåm Line, a scenic railway that traverses the valley and is one of Norway most visited tourist attractions.
