Call 1 888 356 2021 Email [email protected] www.inspiringvacations.com TOUR ITINERARY DAY 1 Destination Dover, Embarkation Meals included Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar All aboard at Dover! MS Maud is here, ready and waiting to bring you north to Norway´s magical snow-covered landscapes on the hunt for one of nature’s greatest spectacles: The Northern Lights. If you’ve time, take a walk alongside or atop the iconic white cliffs of Dover that have become a symbol for England. One of the best places to do so is at St. Margaret’s Bay which offers great views of the chalky coastline from its wide shingle beach. Once on board the ship, you’ll pick up your complimentary expedition jacket, settle into your cabin, explore the ship and attend a mandatory safety drill. After the first of many delicious dinners and a welcome toast by the Captain, you’ll meet your expert Expedition Team. They are your knowledgeable lecturers, warm hosts, and good-natured guides throughout your journey. Many grew up and live in the places you’ll be visiting and are passionate about sharing their home with you. First and foremost though, they are there to keep you safe and well. They’ll be making it a priority to run through important health and safety aspects with you and your fellow guests. When the ship sets sail, we’ll pass the white cliffs of Dover and head up to the North Sea. Stretch your sea legs and get to know MS Maud, your cosy home away from home. If the weather holds, take in the sea air from out on deck. Or park yourself in the Explorer Lounge and Bar to watch the world go by from the panoramic windows, maybe together with a relaxing glass of wine. Your epic adventure to the Arctic is officially underway! DAY 2 Destination At Sea Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar This day at sea gives you all the time you need to ease into your journey. You’ll definitely want to start enjoying onboard facilities like the hot tubs, sauna, and indoor gym. But you’ll likely also be striking up a camaraderie with the Expedition Team as well as other crew members and guests. The Expedition Team will begin the first in their series of insightful lectures over at the Science Center. Each member of the Expedition Team are experts on different subjects, and you’ll find them to be walking, talking treasure troves of stories and information. They’ll share their extensive knowledge about the places, history, nature, people and natural phenomena we are likely to encounter during this winter cruise along the Norwegian coast. Today’s topics might include the geology of the North Sea or the science behind the Northern Lights. Even as no one can completely predict the weather, wind and waves on the North Sea are known to be a bit choppy at this time of year. Our Captain’s goal is to bring us into Bergen the next day, but where nature is involved, nothing can be completely set in stone. This is just part and parcel of the expedition experience, adding extra suspense and excitement to your adventure.

DAY 3 Destination Bergen Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar Depending on the weather when crossing the North Sea, we aim to arrive in Bergen in the afternoon. As our first port of call in Norway, and one of the country’s most picturesque cities, Bergen won’t disappoint. Founded in 1070 AD, Bergen was Norway’s capital for many years, and you’ll see that the city has retained a great deal of its local character, heritage and charm. Your included activity in Bergen is an excursion to Mount Fløyen. We’ll hop on Hurtigruten buses from where the ship docks and drive to the Fløibanen funicular. The ride to the top of the mountain takes just six minutes. At the summit, 320 metres high, bask in stunning views over the city surrounded by seven mountains and the sea. If there’s time, we might also have an opportunity to venture into the alpine forest here for a short hike. Once back in the centre of Bergen, be sure to stroll through the historic UNESCO-listed Bryggen district with its colourful wooden wharfs. The area dates back to the 14th century and now houses boutique stores selling a range of Norwegian arts and crafts. Across from Bryggen is Bergen’s famous fish market which is full of sights, sounds and scents to savour. DAY 4 Destination Fjærland Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar In the morning we sail into Sognefjorden, nicknamed the ‘King of the Fjords’, as it is the longest and deepest fjord in Norway. Stretching 205 kilometres inland from the coast, we plan to cruise deep into the fjord to the tiny hamlet of Fjærland. Only 300 people live here, and you get to go ashore to discover this idyllic village with many charming old buildings. Fjærland is a designated Norwegian Book Town, and picturesque second-hand book shops and stands can be found all over the small village. This is also the place where Sognefjorden meets one of Norway’s best-known glaciers, Jostedalsbreen. It’s the largest glacier on the European continent and has several smaller glacier arms stretching out in many directions, including Bøyabreen and Supphellebreen. This makes Fjærland a perfect place to learn more about how glaciers created the beautiful fjords of Norway, which makes a visit to the Norwegian Glacier Museum a perfect included activity of the day. At the award-winning museum, designed by world famous architect Sverre Fehn, you’ll engage with hands-on exhibits that explain why glacier ice is blue and how the fjords were formed. You can even perform a few experiments with 1,000-year-old glacier ice and watch a panoramic film about Europe’s largest glacier.

Call 1 888 356 2021 Email [email protected] www.inspiringvacations.com P2 TOUR ITINERARY DAY 5 Destination Hjørundfjorden Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar Like famous Geirangerfjord next door, Hjørundfjord is part of the UNESCO designated Fjords Norway area which is notable for “exceptional natural beauty”. Surrounded by the Sunnmøre Alps with peaks soaring 1,700 metres straight up from the sea, it is one of the most scenic fjords in all of Norway and still undiscovered by most other cruise lines. On a clear day, you’ll get the full 360° sensory experience: the bluest skies, the coniferous forests, perhaps in fall foliage and grazing pastures covering the mountainsides. The still, pristine waters then reflect the superb scenery in all its glory, merging the fjord and landscape perfectly. We anchor close to either Urke or Sæbø, both settlements in the fjord and a local tender boat will take you ashore to experience Norwegian nature and culture. Sign up for optional excursions to explore the area further. Join a guided walk taking in villages along the Hjørundfjord and learn about the history, nature and royal connections of this splendid beauty spot. Alternatively, you can opt for more exhilarating, pulse-raising excursions such as hiking up the mountain for incredible views. Or find yourself kayaking along the fjord, the exquisite silence broken only by the sound of your own paddle. DAY 6 Destination Trøndelag Meals included Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Cruise MS Maud, Polar Outside Cabin, or similar Today, we’ll explore rarely seen areas of the rugged and raw coast of Trøndelag on our way north towards Lofoten. This region of Norway lies at the heart of the Norwegian coast, both geographically and culturally. The beautiful city of Trondheim used to be the country’s capital and King Olav, later beatified as Saint Olav, is buried in the city’s Notre- Dame-inspired Nidaros Cathedral. King Olav fell during a battle at Stiklestad, also found along Trøndelag’s coast. His martyrdom there subsequently paved the way for the conversion of Norway from paganism to Christianity. When Hurtigruten started sailing north of Trøndelag in 1893, much was still unknown about the coastline. Over the years, we’ve become experts in these waters. Today, we are the only ones with the maritime knowledge and skill to take you through the many skerries and islets, and past fjord after fjord.

  • Nærings Og Godsstrømsanalyse 2018
    Oktober 2018 Forord Kunnskapsparken Bodø AS har på oppdrag fra samferdselsavdelingen i Nordland fylkeskommune gjennomført en nærings- og godsstrømsanalyse for Nordland. Hovedformålet med denne analysen har vært å lage et kunnskapsgrunnlag om godsstrømmen i Nordland. Det er gjort en kartlegging av mengde gods som sendes inn og ut fra de ulike nordlandsselskapene. Næringslivets egne erfaringer med flaskehalser i samferdselsstrukturen er kartlagt, samt deres innspill på hva fylkeskommunen bør gjøre for å forbedre samferdselstilbudet i fylket. Hovedfokuset har vært på næringsliv som gjennom sin virksomhet frakter store mengder gods til og fra Nordland. Reiselivet i Nordland har hatt stor vekst de siste årene, det er en næring som er avhengig av gode samferdselstilbud selv om de ikke transporter store mengder gods. Vi har derfor også valgt å inkludere denne næringen. Næringene som belyses i denne rapporten er sjømat (havbruk og fangst), petroleum, malm og mineraler, kraftforedlende industri, jordbruk, skogbruk, reiseliv, dagligvarehandelen og bygg og anlegg. I tillegg berøres avfallstransport og verksteder. Data er innsamlet gjennom spørreundersøkelse og telefonintervjuer. Det er 2017 som er brukt som grunnlagsår i beregninger av antall tonn gods. Relevante statistikker fra ulike kilder er benyttet for ytterligere å beskrive samferdselsstruktur og aktiviteter i Nordland. Vi ønsker å takke alle respondentene og informantene for interessante innspill og synspunkter. Nærings- og godsstrømsanalysen er gjennomført i perioden juni - september 2018.

  • Norwegian Camps: Beisfjord Near Narvik, 1942-1945
    Norwegian camps: Beisfjord near Narvik, 1942-1945 Yugoslav prisoners and Soviet prisoners of war Author: Michael Stokke, researcher at the Narvik War and Peace Centre Beisfjord is a small village situated 12 kilometres south-east of Narvik. Less than a hundred inhabitants lived there during the war. In June 1942, the SS set up a prison camp in the centre of Beisfjord to house 900 Yugoslavian prisoners. An additional camp was built to house the camp guards. In October 1942, the inmates were moved out and the Wehrmacht took over the camp, after which Soviet prisoners of war began arriving, and the camp was used to hold them until peace came in May 1945. The number of Soviet prisoners rose from 600 in 1943 to more than 1,500 by the end of 1944. The Yugoslav prisoners On 24 June 1942, the Kerkplein sailed into the port of Narvik. A total of 900 prisoners were disembarked on Fagernes quay. They set out on the 10-kilometre-long march to Beisfjord, where a newly built prison camp awaited them. Prisoners who collapsed from exhaustion along the way were beaten with truncheons or stabbed with bayonets by the guards. Five prisoners were beaten to death on the march, and one of them – Vidoje Vajovic from Serbia – was shot and killed. He was ill, and was shot as his brother Milosav attempted to protect him from the guards. Norwegian guards also patrolled alongside the marching prisoners and beat them. Thus, the nightmare for the Yugoslavs began. A total of 4049 Yugoslavs were imprisoned in Norway from June 1942 until the war ended.
