Stok­mark­nes & Wha­le­wat­ching – 22nd May, 2017

We are pas­sing Stok­mark­nes on the way north and we make a litt­le stop the­re. This is whe­re the famous Hur­tig­ru­ten was inven­ted, the coas­tal steam­er line that con­nec­ted north Nor­way to the rest of the coun­try and thus to the world. They have dedi­ca­ted a muse­um to the Hur­tig­ru­ten in Stok­mark­nes. And if you come with a ship, then you are wel­co­med by a who­le Hur­tig­ru­ten ship on the shore!

They are curr­ent­ly doing a lot of work on the muse­um, but it is alre­a­dy defi­ni­te­ly well worth a visit.
