MS Victoria, also known as the Canal Queen, is one of the veteran cruise boats on the Telemark Canal. From May to September she sails between Skien and Dalen and knows every lock gate and every cove on the 105 km long journey.
On board the MS Victoria you can relax and enjoy the stunning scenery from the ringside seat on deck. Taking the whole trip from Skien to Dalen, you pass seven canal locks with 17 locks. Some locks reveals the historical landscape, steep mountains in the grand western fjords, narrow channels, open water and the lakes. On board you can enjoy good food and drink while MS Victoria quietly sails onwards.
Welcome aboard this summer!
