About the Filtvet – Drøbak crossing
12:26 every day, and 17:56 at weekends. Two departures across the Oslofjord covering 5.3 nautical miles in 16 minutes — one you can rely on, one that depends on the day.
A midday boat and a late-afternoon one
Neither suits commuting. The pattern reads as leisure travel: out around lunchtime, back at the end of a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
Sixteen minutes against a long road
Filtvet sits on the Hurum peninsula and Drøbak across the water. By land the journey runs round the head of the fjord, which is why a two-sailing boat still earns its place.
A short season
The listed departures run from 7 August to 4 October 2026 — under two months. Oslofjord services of this kind are seasonal, and the plan ends with the autumn.
