Copenhagen to Oslo using Eurail pass

Does anyone know if this route is free if I use a Eurail Scandinavia pass?





Cannot find the correct information anywhere :(





Any links which has the timetable for this route? Cannot seem to find a good timetable for this route





Thanks

Hi,





http://www.eurail.com/ says: %26quot;The Eurail Scandinavia Pass entitles you to unlimited rail travel in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden%26quot;.





Use http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en for train timetables all over Europe.

Thanks for the info! I got confused because I could not find a passholder reservation fee for this route on the eurail website.





So, that opens 3 possibilities:



1) The Eurail Scandinavia pass will not give free travel on this route



2) I need to pay extra for a %26quot;passholder rate%26quot; on this route



3) No reservations are possible on this route





Wondering if anyone has had experience on this route with Eurail pass

I think it%26#39;s because you assume it%26#39;s a route - like some of the Thalys TGV routes.





It%26#39;s not. You either change trains in Malmö Sweden or in Gothenburg Sweden - some of the trains will be locals where you don%26#39;t need a reservation.





The most commonly way to go Copenhagen to Oslo is by night ferry - DFDS will give you a 25 procent discount as a Eurail pass holder:
