The maritime maps were unreliable and there were only a few lighthouses, especially in the north. This important seaway was lined with perilous reefs, small islands and narrow inlets, and it was essential that a safe trade route be established to link the southern and northern regions of Norway.<\/p>\n<h2>Hurtigruten<\/h2>\n<p>When the Norwegian government decided to create a connection between the north and the south, Richard With and his friend Anders Holthe took on the challenge of thoroughly mapping the seas along the coastline. In 1893, Captain Richard With\u2019s steamer, DS Vesteraalen, was brought into regular service along the coast of Norway, and Hurtigruten was established. The service offered several weekly departures, first from Trondheim to Hammerfest and later from Bergen to Kirkenes in only seven days. He called this important connection \u2018Hurtigruten\u2019 (the fast route).<\/p>\n<p>120 years later, we still carry freight and passengers. Our captains use their extensive maritime expertise to ensure that guests and goods are safely carried from port to port. Today, as then, the Hurtigruten ships are a part of Norwegian coastal life. One of the fleet\u2019s 11 ships departs Bergen daily, sailing to Kirkenes and back in 12 days at an average speed of 15 knots. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hurtigruten.com\/us\/utils\/about-hurtigruten\/history\/120-years-of-coastal-voyages\/\" target=\"_blank\">More Hurtigruten history and mile stones here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In search for The Northern Lights, Midnight Sun, Norwegian Fjords, Antarctica, Greenland &amp; Iceland, Spitsbergen.<br \/>\nSomething for every one and in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hurtigruten.com\/us\/utils\/news-on-front-page\/hurtigruten--national-geographics-center-for-sustainable-destinations\/\" target=\"_blank\">partnership with National Geographic Society<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/89610867\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" title=\"HURTIGRUTEN ANTARCTICA, penguins\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Just some of the reasons why you should join the Hurtigruten.com Affiliate Program.<br \/>\nWhat do you get?<br \/>\n3% on all referred bookings.<br \/>\nUnlimited cookie.<br \/>\nAnd yes, Hurtigruten.com does convert<\/p>\n<p>Via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webgains.com\" target=\"_blank\">webgains.com<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cj.com\" target=\"_blank\">CJ.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In search for The Northern Lights, Midnight Sun, Norwegian Fjords, Antarctica, Greenland &#038; Iceland, Spitsbergen.<br \/>\nSomething for every one and in partnership with National Geographic Society\ufeff.
