Skibladner, Paddle steamer on Lake Mjøsa, Norway.

The white-painted Skibladner measures 50 meters in length and carries 230 passengers through Lake Mjøsa's waters using traditional paddle wheel propulsion.

Following its construction in Sweden during 1856, this paddle steamer began regular service on Lake Mjøsa, connecting communities along Norway's largest inland waterway.

The vessel maintains its 1888 design with period-accurate saloons, traditional Norwegian dining service, and original steam engine sounds echoing across the deck.

Between June and August, Skibladner operates daily routes except Mondays, connecting the ports of Gjøvik, Hamar, Lillehammer, Eidsvoll, and Brumunddal.

This heritage-listed vessel stands as the oldest paddle steamer maintaining scheduled passenger service worldwide, operating continuously since its inaugural journey.
