The Queen on the Osterfjord –

DS "Oster"

"Gamle Dampen" gives you a special and unique historical experience and is today "a living legend".

DS "Oster" is a steam-powered fjord boat that ran between Bergen and the Osterfjorden as a combined passenger and cargo boat.

The boat was built in 1908 and the hull was supposed to withstand icebreaking in the inner Osterfjorden. The boat has a long and exciting history, and was under both Norwegian and German command during the war. In 1965, it was converted to a diesel-powered freighter, but in 1996 it was bought by Nordhordland Veteran Boat Association and renamed "Oster" - a ship worth preserving.

The boat was restored and returned to its pre-1964 appearance and went from freighter to veteran ship.

A journey on the Osterfjord is a special experience in a historical setting.

What about taking the "Honeymoon cruise on Osterfjorden" with this beautiful steam-boat?
