Fjord Line ferry routes

From Denmark to Norway: routes from Hirtshals

Fjord Line connects Hirtshals in Denmark with key ports in southern Norway. Depending on your travel plans, you can choose the most suitable route and book it directly:

Two routes, two travel styles: Fjord Line operates a high-speed ferry exclusively on the Hirtshals - Kristiansand route, ideal if you want to reach southern Norway quickly. Alternatively, a longer route towards western Norway connects directly to Stavanger and Bergen, offering a more relaxed onboard experience and convenient access to destinations further along the coast. If you choose this route, you can also book trips between Norwegian ports, such as Kristiansand - Stavanger or Stavanger - Bergen, making it a flexible option for multi-stop itineraries.

Travel tip for road trips: Hirtshals is an excellent starting point if you are planning a Norway itinerary. You can arrive in Kristiansand, travel north through Stavanger and Bergen, and plan your return based on your route. Flexibility is key: on Mr Ferry, you can compare multiple departures and choose the option that best fits your travel pace.
