Norway Hurtigruten-Boat Trip

A circular alongside the Norwegian coast on a ship of the Hurtigruten is one of the most beautiful cruises that one can do. For the Hurtigruten-insiders, it is even the most beautiful boat trip at all. On the following pages, there is a detailed travel guide of Norway and the Hurtigruten.

Two very experienced Hurtigruten-passengers have issued the following pages about the Hurtigruten. Manfred Hofmann already did the Hurtigruten boat trip 6 times, and each was the complete circular trip from Bergen up to Kirkenes and back again to Bergen. This circular trip is described in the first block. Rudi Kronenberger made the one-way boat trip from Bergen to Kirkenes an another one-way trip from Kirkenes to Bergen; this journey is described in the second block.
