History
Opened 22 December 1959

Åsåker Station (Norwegian: Åsåker holdeplass) was a railway station on the Spikkestad Linelocated at Åsåker in Røyken, Norway. The station was opened as part of Drammenbanen on 22 December 1959, but in 1973 the new Lieråsen Tunnel opened through Lieråsen, and the old part of Drammen Line was transformed to a commuter train line.

The station was served by the Oslo Commuter Rail service to Oslo S and onward to Moss. Åsåker is primarily a residential area. The station was closed in 2012 due to low traffic.
