About
About Olderdalen ferjekai
Norway's E6 runs the length of the country, and at Olderdalen it offers you a way to leave it. The ferry from this quay crosses the Lyngen fjord to the peninsula on the far side, and for anyone heading to Tromsø it is the short way — the alternative is to stay on the trunk road and drive a long way round the head of the fjord.
What the crossing is for
Olderdalen to Lyngseidet takes about 40 minutes, with 16 sailings in our timetable in each direction. The quays are only 12.3 km apart in a straight line; the road around is a great deal further.
This is Fylkesvei 91, a county road rather than a trunk route, and the ferry is legally part of it. Olderdalen sits in Kåfjord on the E6 side; Lyngseidet is on the Lyngen peninsula.
⚠ The shortcut has two ferries, not one
Crossing here does not put you in Tromsø. Fv91 continues over the peninsula to a second crossing, Svensby to Breivikeidet, before the road reaches the city.
Two ferries in sequence means two timetables to line up, and on a route with sixteen daily sailings rather than sixty that is a real constraint. Work out the second connection before committing to the first, particularly late in the day.
Sixteen sailings is a different kind of ferry
The high-frequency crossings further south on the E39 run every twenty minutes and you simply turn up. This is not one of those. With roughly sixteen departures a day, first around 07:20 and the last leaving Lyngseidet about 21:20, a missed boat costs you real time.
There is no booking on Norwegian county ferries — vehicles board in arrival order — so the planning happens before you set off rather than at the quay.
Who runs it
The service sits inside the Svipper public transport network for Troms and is operated by Norled. Payment is by number plate through AutoPASS rather than at a booth, and foot passengers cross free.
Winter changes the calculation
The Lyngen peninsula road and the mountain sections either side are exposed, and in poor conditions the long way round on the E6 can be the faster and safer option even though it looks absurd on a map.
In summer the reverse holds and the crossing is the obvious choice. Check road status as well as ferry times between October and April — the boat running is not the same as the road being open.
