About the HovedøyaLindøya øst crossing

Twenty-six departures between two islands in the Oslofjord, seven minutes apart. Hovedøya and Lindøya sit within sight of central Oslo, and the boats that serve them are part of the city’s public transport rather than an excursion — same tickets, same network, six-tenths of a nautical mile.

A sailing at 00:28

Eight departures run at weekends, and the first of them leaves at 00:28 — a boat home for people who stayed late on the islands. Sixteen more run every day between 06:38 and 23:18, and two run Monday to Friday from 05:28.

The two extra patterns sit at opposite ends of the day

The weekday additions are early — 05:28 and one more before eight. The weekend additions are late, running from just after midnight. Between them they bracket the all-week core rather than extending it evenly, so which end of the day is covered depends entirely on whether it is a working day.

Current plan

The listed sailings run to 13 December 2026. Island services in the inner Oslofjord thin out in winter, so the twenty-six departures above should be read as the warm-season pattern rather than a year-round guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

What time is the first sailing?

First departure is 00:28, last is 23:18.

Which operator provides this service?

Ruter operates this route.

How long is the ferry ride?

Around 7m, depending on sea conditions.

Do I need a passport for this ferry?

No, it's a domestic crossing within Norway.

How many sailings run each day?

25 sailings a day, every day.

How much does a ticket cost?

On most Norwegian road-network ferries, foot passengers and cyclists travel free; cars and larger vehicles are charged automatically via AutoPASS by vehicle length and crossing, so there is no single ticket price. Register an AutoPASS ferry account in advance for a discount, and check Ruter for the current tariff.

Can I do this as a day trip?

A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 7m and several sailings a day (first 06:38, last 21:48), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.

Does the ferry run all year?

Sailings run daily, and frequency can change between the summer and winter seasons. The timetable above shows the latest published departures — confirm with the operator for off-season dates.

Can I take a pet on this ferry?

Most ferry operators allow pets on this route, usually in a carrier, on deck or in designated pet areas or cabins, and registered assistance dogs travel free. Rules and any fees vary by operator and vessel — check with Ruter, so declare your pet when booking.

What's the luggage allowance?

Foot passengers can normally bring their own luggage aboard at no extra charge, with racks or a luggage area near the entrance, and there is usually no airline-style weight limit. Oversized or excess items may carry a fee, so check with the operator if you are travelling with bulky baggage.

Where can I check live sailing times?

The timetable on this page shows the latest published sailings for this route. Always confirm with the operator before travelling, as schedules change seasonally.
