Hol Station (Norwegian: Hol stasjon) is a disused railway station located on the Bergen Line in Hol municipality, Buskerud county, Norway. It was opened as a Passing loop with a stop in 1907 when the Bergen Railway was opened to Gulsvik Station. It was upgraded to a station in 1931. However, in 1983 the station was closed and all passengers trains do not stop anymore. Meanwhile, the station still provides the passing loop function.
