Can you take the Scandlines ferry to Germany on foot or by bike?

Walk or cycle on board without a car.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

Yes, both Scandlines routes take foot passengers and cyclists. As of November 2026 a 1-day return ticket on foot costs 85 DKK on Rødby–Puttgarden and 115 DKK on Gedser–Rostock. If you bring a bicycle, you buy a bike supplement of 20 DKK on top of the passenger ticket. Foot passengers and cyclists have their own check-in times in the ports, separate from cars.
