Mosjøen Getting there & around

Getting there & away

There are flights to Bodø, via Mo i Rana, and Trondheim.

Buses run from Mosjøen to Brønnøysund (three hours, once or twice daily except Saturday) and Sandnessjøen (1¾ hours, three to five daily) and there’s at least one service daily to/from Mo i Rana (1¾ hours).

Mosjøen lies on the rail line between Trondheim (Nkr648, 5½ hours) and Fauske (Nkr445, 3½ hours).

For drivers, a lovely detour follows the wild, scenic Villmarksveien route, which runs parallel to the E6 east of Mosjøen and approaches the bizarre 1128m peak Hatten (or Hattfjell). From the end of the nearest road, the hike to the top takes about two hours. However, taking this route cuts out Mosjøen itself.
