Winter is one of the most special times to explore Norway’s northern reaches. The landscape is covered in pure white snow and the air is fresh and crisp, whilst the night sky teases you with the chance of witnessing the spectacular Northern Lights.
Experience the natural, unspoilt beauty of the Norwegian winter aboard a Hurtigruten ship. Enjoy relaxing days, local cuisine, and the warm company of like-minded adventurers.
Our voyages go beyond traditional cruising, taking you
closer to the breathtaking environments, fascinating people and spectacular scenery of Arctic Norway’s coastline. Join our excursion to the top of the world, the North Cape 71° N – northernmost point of Continental Europe.
The sun is low on the horizon, and north of the Arctic Circle is below the horizon for some weeks. This natural phenomenon creates fascinating lights, with the Northern Lights as pure magic.
