PLEASE ON BLACK! The captain calmly maneuvers the ship into the 100-metre wide mouth of the fjord and turns around a few kilometres further in. All the while, you are quietly praying that the old tale still holds true: that the trolls won’t wake for a thousand years, by which time our ship will have since sailed away.

PLEASE ON BLACK! I could visit Trollfjorden 2 x, by day and by night , with MS Nordlys (PiP), which drove in cautiously and turned there. One had the feeling of being able to touch the rock walls by hand. www.lofoten-online.de/raftsund/index-trollfjord.php fjordtravel.no/destination-norway/norwegian-coast-trollfjord

PLEASE ON BLACK! Sometimes the Hurtigruten ferries take in the darkness a small detour into the 100 m wide Trollfjord. It is also popular with other cruise ferries. My Ferry was MS Nordlys en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS_Nordlys_(1993)

On calm days, Hurtigruten can sail in and almost brush the sides of the thousand metre high mountains of Trollfjorden. No other place offers you the chance to get as close to this incredible sight. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollfjord My ship was MS Nordlys en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS_Nordlys_(1993)

This region has inspired famous Norwegian art and literature. In 1890, a battle broke out in Trollfjorden between fishermen who were all eager to claim the massive shoals of fish that had entered the fjord. The large steam-powered vessels had cast nets that blocked the fish inside the fjord, which was unacceptable to the fishermen in the smaller boats. The fight is mentioned in the classic novel “Den siste viking” (“The Last Viking”) by Johan Bojer. It is also captured in Gunnar Berg’s painting “Trollfjordslaget” (“The Trollfjord Battle”), which is on display in Svolvær town hall. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollfjord

PLEASE ON BLACK! Die Schiffe der Hurtigruten fahren durch den Raftsund und biegen als besondere touristische Attraktion in den an dieser Stelle nur 100 m breiten Trollfjord ein. An der breitesten Stelle wenden sie und setzen anschließend ihre Fahrt durch den Raftsund fort. Auch andere Kreuzfahrtschiffe vollziehen dieses spektakuläre Manöver. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trollfjord

PLEASE VIEW ON BLACK! Trollfjorden carves inwards to Austvågøy from the west side of the 25-kilometre long Raftsundet, a very narrow sound between Austvågøy and Hinnøya. Here, Hurtigruten drives between the ports of Svolvær and Stokmarknes.

Die Brücke verbindet das Zentrum der Stadt auf der Insel Tromsøya mit dem Tromsøer Stadtteil Tromsdalen auf dem Festland. Mit einer Länge von 1036 Metern und einer Höhe von 36 Metern war das Bauwerk nach seiner Fertigstellung im Jahr 1960 Nordeuropas größte Spannbetonbrücke, die von Hochseeschiffen unterfahren werden kann. Die leicht bogenförmige Balkenbrücke mit ihren schlanken Säulen diente als Vorbild für nachfolgende Spannbetonbrücken in ganz Norwegen. Sie ist zugleich neben der Eismeerkathedrale und dem Berg Tromsdalstinden eines der prägnantesten Wahrzeichen Tromsøs. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troms%C3%B8brua en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troms%C3%B8_Bridge
