Route guide

Plan your ferry from Trelleborg to Travemünde

The Trelleborg to Travemünde crossing links Trelleborg in Sweden with Travemünde in Germany.

For a departure from Trelleborg, start by locating the ferry terminal and checking how to reach the correct boarding point. Trelleborg is Sweden’s principal southern ferry port.

On the other side of the crossing, Travemünde is your arrival port. Travemünde’s resort centre is compact, but Skandinavienkai requires a separate bus, taxi or vehicle transfer and Lübeck lies further inland.

Compare the Trelleborg departure and Travemünde arrival on the same dated itinerary. Sailing times and intermediate calls can differ between directions, so use the Trelleborg to Travemünde result when planning your trip rather than assuming the outward timetable applies in reverse.

Check the total cost for everyone travelling, including any vehicle, reserved seat, cabin or other option offered. A later arrival in Travemünde may affect your next connection or accommodation, so compare the whole journey as well as the fare.

Before departure

Prepare for check-in at Trelleborg

The Trelleborg to Travemünde journey crosses between Sweden and Germany. Check the current entry and travel-document requirements for your nationality and itinerary, together with the operator’s boarding instructions.

Your departure terminal

Use the terminal named on the Trelleborg booking confirmation. Plan the approach, parking or drop-off before departure; the town centre or railway station may be some distance from check-in.

Passenger and vehicle details

Check names and travel details before you arrive. If taking a vehicle, enter its full dimensions and include trailers, roof loads or rear-mounted equipment where required.

Use current official guidance for documents, entry permissions and any vehicle or pet requirements that apply to your journey. Requirements depend on your circumstances and can change.

After arriving

Continue your journey from Travemünde

Travemünde’s resort centre is compact, but Skandinavienkai requires a separate bus, taxi or vehicle transfer and Lübeck lies further inland.

The beach, lighthouse, Vorderreihe and central riverfront are easy to explore on foot once you are in Travemünde proper.

Use the signed road approach or local bus connections to the terminal; do not assume the beachfront rail station is beside ferry check-in.

For an onward connection from Travemünde, include time to leave the ship and terminal. Check local transport for the actual arrival day, especially if the ferry arrives early in the morning or late at night. A nearby hotel or a later connection may give more flexibility if the crossing is delayed.

Departing from Trelleborg

Trelleborg is Sweden’s southernmost city and one of Scandinavia’s busiest ferry gateways, pairing efficient continental links with Viking history and an easy-going Skåne coast.

Trelleborg has grown around its strategic location at Sweden’s southern tip. Ferries dominate the harbour, yet the compact centre immediately inland retains cafés, shops and parks that make it more than simply a transit point.

Trelleborgen, a reconstructed Viking ring fortress, is the city’s signature historical attraction. It recalls the late Viking Age and gives travellers a useful introduction to the archaeology and settlement history of southern Skåne.

The waterfront is known for its seasonal palm trees, an unusual sight at this latitude, while the surrounding coast offers beaches, cycling and open views across the Baltic. Smygehuk, Sweden’s southernmost point, is a popular short drive east of the city.

Trelleborg is also well placed for Malmö, Lund and Copenhagen. Malmö is less than an hour away by road or rail, allowing ferry passengers to combine an overnight crossing with a larger city break or onward journey across the Öresund region.

Food and accommodation options are concentrated around the centre and station, which is useful for foot passengers. Drivers can quickly reach the E6/E22 motorway network for onward journeys north through Sweden.

The Port of Trelleborg is the practical reason many visitors arrive. TT-Line operates routes to Rostock, Travemünde and Świnoujście, while Stena Line also runs the high-frequency Trelleborg–Rostock service, giving travellers several options for reaching continental Europe.

Use the terminal or pier named on your TT-Line confirmation. The published departure is the sailing time; check-in and vehicle acceptance close earlier. If reaching Trelleborg by train or bus, allow for the transfer from the station to the harbour and for luggage handling.

Including this crossing in a trip from the UK

Allow for the overland journey to Trelleborg before choosing the ferry. A separately booked flight, train or earlier crossing may not protect you if you miss check-in. Use local times on both sides and check entry rules for each country on your full itinerary. Travel within Europe is not automatically free of document checks.

Planning the wider journey in Germany

Northern German ports provide useful onward routes to Scandinavia and the Baltic after a continental road journey from Britain. Compare the long drive to the terminal with the overnight sailing and cabin cost.

Planning advice for the journey from Britain

Passengers, vehicles and the fare

Select the correct passenger category before comparing Trelleborg to Travemünde fares. A passenger-only boat cannot take a car, and a vehicle ferry may still have limited bicycle or foot-passenger availability. The travel modes shown in the facts panel should be checked against the specific sailing.

For a vehicle booking, give the full height and length including a roof box, rear rack or trailer. Where accommodation is offered, check whether a cabin or seat is required and whether meals are included. Request mobility assistance and any pet space before completing the booking, because these can have separate capacity limits.

Prices depend on the date, passenger mix, vehicle and ticket conditions. Compare the complete return cost and the amendment or cancellation terms. No fixed fare on this guide should replace a dated quote.
