How do you get from Copenhagen to Bornholm by train and ferry?

One ticket, two trains and a ferry.

Answered at: Checked at:

Short answer

From Copenhagen you take a DSB Øresund train to Sweden and change at Malmö C, Hyllie or Triangeln to a Pågatåg train that runs to Ystad. In Ystad you change to the Bornholmslinjen ferry to Rønne, which takes 80 minutes. The combined ticket is valid for the whole journey to Rønne and consists of a train ticket and an access ticket for the ferry. You can take any train as long as you reach the ferry departure on your ticket. Bring a passport or other ID, as there is border control when you enter Sweden.

Bornholm

Why

  1. No car is needed to reach Bornholm.
  2. One ticket covers trains and ferry.
  3. The train time is flexible as long as you reach the ferry.

Details

Kombardo Expressen buses also run to Bornholm from Copenhagen Bus Terminal on Carsten Niebuhrs Gade near Fisketorvet.

Tip

Buy the DSB ticket called DSB standard Bornholm and book the ferry departure on bornholmslinjen.dk.

What may differ

Train changes and border checks can take extra time, so leave a margin before the ferry.

Common misconception

Many think you need a car to travel to Bornholm.

What actually happens

Trains via Sweden and the ferry from Ystad take you to Rønne on one ticket.
