Awaken the explorer in you on this Hurtigruten cruise adventure from the Arctic wilderness of northern Norway to the world's most beautiful islands and fjords along the west coast. Imagine a landscape covered in pure white snow and a clear night sky. Suddenly a colourful explosion erupts above you. When this silent light show in the sky begins, it's impossible to look away. The northern lights are truly mesmerizing – and your chances to see them are best on this cruise!
Start your winter excursion in the delightful Kirkenes Snowhotel, that opened for the first time in 2006. Since then they have been giving guests a wonderful experience in one of Norway’s most beautiful surroundings. Every room in Kirkenes Snowhotel is like a small treasure, uniquely decorated by artists from around the world. All the 20 rooms have a different theme from the Arctic culture or nature. The lighted ice sculptures give the Snowhotel a very cosy and special atmosphere.
Extend the cruise by staying in Kirkenes for a few days before you join the ship and enjoy the land excursions – snowmobiles, huskies, hunt the Northern Lights, fish for King Crab.
