About the Tromsø Prostneset hurtigbåtkaiVikran kai crossing

15:00 on Tuesdays and Fridays; 16:20 on Mondays and Wednesdays. Four service days, two hours, and no day gets both.

Twenty-nine knots down the Malangen approaches

7.3 nautical miles in 15 minutes from Prostneset in the middle of Tromsø out to Vikran. That is a fast boat doing a direct run, which is unusual on the thin routes around the city.

Thursday, Saturday, Sunday: nothing

Three days with no service. The longest gap runs from Wednesday afternoon to Friday afternoon.

10 August to 30 December 2026

An autumn and winter plan. Prostneset is the main quay in Tromsø, shared with the Hurtigruten and the local express boats, so the departure point is easy — it is the day that needs checking.

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.

A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 15m and several sailings a day (first 15:00, last 16:20), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.

Does the ferry run all year?

Sailings operate on selected days, 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 car on this ferry?

Svipper does not list vehicle space on this service — plan to travel as a foot passenger. If you need to bring a car, check with the operator for alternative crossings.

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 Svipper, 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.
