Ferry from Bornholm to Sweden

About Bornholm

The Danish island of Bornholm lies 200 kilometres east of Copenhagen in the Baltic Sea and is renowned for having the sunniest climate in the country. Known locally as the ‘pearl of the Baltic’, Bornholm Island is blessed with one of the finest natural landscapes in Scandinavia, comprising sandy beaches, dramatic chalk cliffs and lush forests. It also boasts picturesque harbours, windmills and fascinating fortress ruins. Due to its isolated location in the Baltic Sea, travelling by ferry is a convenient mode of transport to the surrounding Nordic nations. Bornholm’s main port is in Ronne on the west coast, where there are numerous routes provided to mainland Denmark, Sweden and Germany, making it a useful gateway to Western Europe, too. The port is served by Route 38 from the east and Route 159 from the north, so it’s within easy reach from most locations on the island.

About Sweden

Sweden is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe, sharing a lengthy western border with Norway and a shorter north-eastern border with Finland. One of the European leaders for quality of life, Sweden is a beautiful nation in all aspects. The diversity of magical landscapes is one of its greatest assets, stretching from the sparse and snow-filled north, inhabited by the indigenous Sami people, to the lake-speckled central region and the high-energy, fashion-inspired capital city of Stockholm in the south. A long Viking history has left its mark; ancient rune stones and huge burial mounds can be found throughout the country, all with their own fascinating story to tell, while the medieval cities and coastal castles add a further layer of mystery. Sailing to Sweden by ferry is a common choice for visitors, thanks to the huge number of routes from various countries in northern Europe and Scandinavia, all operated by a wide choice of excellent ferry companies.
