About the Stora Timrarö östra brygga – Ålön brygga crossing
The 8-minute journey between Stora Timrarö östra and Ålön provides a direct water link within the Stockholm archipelago. This short crossing is managed by the public transport operator Waxholmsbolaget. Departures run throughout the day, with the first boat leaving at 09:27 and the final sailing at 18:47. The route's brevity makes it a simple hop between two nearby points on the Timrarö and Ålön islands.
Timetable and Operator
Waxholmsbolaget operates this crossing daily, with a frequency of nine sailings currently scheduled each day. The consistent 8-minute travel time reflects the direct nature of the route. Both Stora Timrarö östra and Ålön are small island terminals functioning primarily as stops on multi-stop archipelago routes. From Stora Timrarö östra, Waxholmsbolaget also serves six other local destinations including Fåglarö brygga and Vaxholm Hotellkajen.
Alternative Travel
Without this ferry, travel between the two islands would require a series of road connections and potentially longer ferry journeys via a larger hub like Vaxholm. The crossing from Ålön also provides onward connections to Siaröfortet Kyrkogårdsön brygga and Vaxholm Hotellkajen, integrating it into the wider local transport network. The direct 8-minute sailing offers a significant time saving over any land-based alternative.
