Short answer

Snälltåget's train to Oslo starts in Malmö, so first take Øresundståg from Copenhagen to Malmö, which takes about 40 minutes. From 15 June 2026 Snälltåget runs a daily train from Malmö via Gothenburg to Oslo, leaving Malmö at 06.38 and arriving at Oslo S at 13.16 in the 2026 timetable. Interrail pass holders need no reservation on the IC and regional trains between Copenhagen and Oslo.
