MS Lofoten
Description
This is the official site of the Hurtigruten ship MS Lofoten. One of 11 Hurtigruten ships in service on the coast of Norway between Bergen and Kirkenes. Our old favourite MS Lofoten attracts many passengers to return on board time and time again.
MS Lofoten, our old time favourite, was launched in Oslo in 1964, and provides a voyage of real nostalgia with an intimate informal atmosphere. The ship is named after the Lofoten Islands just north of the Arctic Circle, famous for their dramatic scenery and often described as 'a masterpiece.' MS Lofoten is the second Hurtigruten ship to carry this name. She was refurbished and refitted in 2003, but most of the original style and atmosphere are preserved. With unique lounges and panoramic decks, this 'old lady' is simply incomparable. The cabins are plain, but very cosy.
