Route guide

Fynshav - Bøjden ferry at a glance

Everything on the Fynshav - Bøjden ferry with Alslinjen: getting to the terminals, check-in times, facilities on board the electric ferry Nerthus, vehicle and pet rules, and onward travel across Funen.

Getting to the terminal

The ferry departs from Fynshav at the eastern end of the island of Als. Set your sat nav to Færgevej 2A, 6440 Augustenborg. Coming from Germany, take the E45 to the Sønderborg exit, then follow route 8 via Augustenborg to Fynshav; it is around 60 to 70 km from the German-Danish border. Follow the signs to the ferry terminal, where parking is right at the quayside.

The destination port, Bøjden, lies on the southwest coast of Funen at Bøjdenlandevej 49, 5600 Faaborg, a good 10 km from Faaborg. Alslinjen is the only operator on the route, so there is no need to look for the right terminal. Foot passengers buy tickets from the machine at the port; staff are on site in Fynshav from 10:00 and in Bøjden from 10:30 until the last departure.

Check-in and departure

With a Standard ticket for a car, motorbike, moped, bicycle or as a foot passenger, you need to be checked in at the latest 15 minutes before departure. With a commuter or Bizz card and advance booking, 5 minutes is enough, while larger combinations such as a motorhome with trailer or an articulated lorry need 30 minutes. With a Brobizz, check-in happens automatically: attach the Bizz to the windscreen, drive into the marked lane and roll on board.

Fynshav–Bøjden is a purely domestic route within Denmark. Border checks or a passport are therefore not required.

On board

The route is served by the fully electric ferry E/F Nerthus, named "Shortsea Ferry of the Year" in 2025 at the Ferry Shipping Summit. On board you will find a bistro serving smørrebrød, hot dogs and warm dishes, the Barista's Coffee Shop and free Wi-Fi with a solid connection. The spacious lounge offers plenty of seating, plus an area for children, so the 40-minute crossing passes quickly.

Vehicle, bicycle and pets

Cars, motorbikes, mopeds and bicycles are all welcome, and you can also travel as a foot passenger. Travelling with a motorhome? Find the details in the motorhome guide; enter your vehicle's dimensions correctly when booking, as longer vehicles cost more. Pets are welcome in the designated areas on board: dogs on a short lead in the dog area, other animals in a carrier. More details are in the pets on board guide.

Arrival and onward travel

In Bøjden, the ferry docks at the southwestern tip of Funen. Faaborg is around 10 km away; from there you can reach Odense with its H.C. Andersen House, Egeskov Castle or Svendborg within a comfortable day's drive. Bøjden has no railway station of its own, so Faaborg is the nearest transport hub for onward travel by bus. Heading back towards Als, route 8 takes you back to Sønderborg and onto the E45.

Egeskov Castle, one of Europe's best-preserved water castles, is just a short detour from Bøjden on Funen.
