Route Overview

The Sassnitz–Trelleborg ferry connects the port of Sassnitz (Mukran) on the island of Rügen with Sweden's busiest ferry hub in 4 to 5 hours. TT-Line operates this route, which carries significant freight traffic and passenger vehicles. The route bypasses Denmark entirely, which simplifies logistics for direct road travel between Germany and Sweden. Rügen island itself — accessible from the mainland by bridge — has an exceptional coastal landscape that's worth knowing about even if you're just passing through.

Operators & Schedule

The Sassnitz–Trelleborg route is operated by TT-Line, a German-Swedish ferry company running modern ro-pax vessels on several Scandinavia–Germany corridors with a long track record on Baltic freight and passenger routes.

Onboard Services

TT-Line vessels include a restaurant, cafeteria, bar, duty-free shop and cabin facilities. For the 4–5 hour crossing, most passengers use the lounges and café. Cabins are available for those who prefer to rest.

Sassnitz

Sassnitz Fährhafen (Mukran) is the ferry port on Rügen island, northeastern Germany. Road and rail bridges connect the island to the mainland. The chalk cliff coastline at Jasmund National Park, a short drive away, is one of Germany's most striking stretches of coast.

Trelleborg

Trelleborg is Sweden's largest ferry hub at the southern tip of the Scania peninsula. Multiple ferry companies operate from here to Germany, Poland and Lithuania. The E6/E22 motorway network starts immediately outside the port gates.
