Getting There -- The quickest way to Mo i Rana is to fly in on a daily flight from Trondheim, arriving at the Røssvoll airport, lying 14km (8 3/4 miles) from the center. Widerøe Airlines (tel. 81-00-12-00; www.wideroe.no) flies here. You can also arrive by train at the Mo i Rana Train Station (tel. 75-15-01-77). Two or three trains arrive daily from Trondheim, costing 737NOK ($113/£61) one-way and taking just under 7 hours. Check www.nsb.no for information. Bus service takes longer, is inconvenient, and saves you neither time nor money, so it's not recommended. Motorists can take the E6 north from Trondheim.
