Kirkenes

Years ago I came across an article about the Hurtigruten. The Hurtigruten is the name of a Norwegian coastal transport service which is over a hundred years old. Originally the Hurtigruten played an important role providing the Norwegain coast with a reliable transport service for mail, goods an people. Nowadays the Hurtigruten is recognised as one of the “world’s most beautiful sea voyage”. The journey starts in Bergen and takes passengers all the way up to Kirkenes and then back again, stopping at all 34 large and small ports of call along the route during waking hours. There is also time for excursions. I think it’s the best way to see the Norwegian coastal region.
