About the Grönevik Färjeläge – Lilla Varholmen crossing
Thirty-six sailings run every day, from midnight to 23:00. Eleven weekday-only boats fill the commuting hours between 05:30 and 17:40, and four more carry a weekend flag.
Hourly at night, tighter by day
The all-week core never stops: there is a boat at 00:00 and one every hour through the small hours. From the morning the gaps close up, and the weekday extras thicken the peak further.
Six minutes across the sound
Lilla Varholmen is the mainland ramp on Hisingen where the Öckerö island ferries land. Our data holds no distance for this crossing, only the journey time — on this stretch of the Bohuslän coast the water is narrow and the ramps do most of the work.
4 August to 12 December 2026
A state-run road ferry rather than a ticketed operator’s service. That is why it runs at three in the morning and why our data carries no fare against it.
