The traditional route of the Hurtigruten leads from Mountains above Trondheim, Bodø, Tromso and Hammerfest to Kirkenes and back. Hurtigruten is the Norwegian name for The fast line. Since 1893, the Hurtigruten has been connecting the towns on the Norwegian west coast, which is over 2,700 kilometers long, as post ships. The ships are still an important part of the basic service, especially in the northern part of the route, and are therefore subsidized by the state.
