Travel with the ferry to Bornholm
A holiday in a motorhome is often associated with great freedom, allowing you to move from place to place for new, exciting experiences.
When traveling to Bornholm with a motorhome, there are various options for resting or camping, but always pay attention to local signage, etc. Unless otherwise stated by signs or regulations, a motorhome is subject to the same rules as other motor vehicles at the location.
It is easy and simple to get to Bornholm with your own motorhome using Bornholmslinjen’s ferrys from either Køge (Sjælland) or Ystad (Sweden). The trip from Køge takes 5.5 hours, and from Ystad, it can be completed in 1 hour and 20 minutes. For large parts of the year, it is also possible to take a ferry directly from Sassnitz in Germany to Bornholm, which only takes 3 hours and 20 minutes.
All over Bornholm you will find good campsites, and here there is everything from 5-star luxury to cozy primitive nature sites.
No matter where you choose to live, you will come very close to the unique nature of Bornholm, and you are always close to the island’s many attractions and sights.
At the island’s campsites you will meet hosts who are passionate about the guest and Bornholm. They will be able to help you find the island’s hidden gems and hidden treasures, so that you get all the memorable experiences with you home from your holiday.
When you stay at the island’s campsites, you can of course also take advantage of the campsites’ many facilities. At the same time, you also contribute to the local community and help ensure that Bornholm, also in the future, is a growing community with exciting experiences for the joy and benefit of everyone.
There are 6 motorhome pitches at each of the 3 municipal ports: Nørrekås, Hasle and Tejn. The ports are open for motorhomes in the period 15 May to 15 September.
You can stay on the site from the time of arrival until the following day at 12
You can stay at the ports for free, and you can also purchase extra services that include electricity, water, access to waste disposal, shower and toilet facilities and Wi-Fi.
Agricultural properties might offer accommodation for up to 3 motorhomes close to the property’s residence.
As a general rule, motorhomes are not allowed to drive or park on beaches, in nature areas, or forests unless motorized driving is permitted.
Bornholm’s nature is unique and with a rich wildlife, which attracts guests from all over the world. We Bornholmers love to show off the island’s beauty. We are proud of the island and cherish it.
When you visit Bornholm as a guest, we hope that you will help us take care of nature and always ensure that you leave it as you would like to experience it yourself.
It is important for Bornholm’s other tourists, Bornholm residents and motorhome campers, that everyone has some good experiences on Bornholm. Everyone should therefore show consideration for each other and respect the nature-sensitive and scenic areas that characterize Bornholm.
The location of your motorhome should therefore be done in such a way that this is respected.
It is not permitted to set up tables and benches, grills, erect awnings, or roof tents that allow for overnight stays in connection with parking a motorhome or other motor vehicles unless permitted by signage or another form of communicated permission from the landowner.
In towns and urban areas, you can drive and park a motorhome on all roads as long as you comply with the general traffic laws for driving and parking motor vehicles. It is also allowed to rest in the motorhome’s sleeping cabin.
However, if there are separate rules for motorized driving and parking in the specific location, you must comply with them. Signage can regulate, for example, the time you can park or the type of vehicle. For instance, if it is indicated that parking is not allowed from 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM, this must be respected.
It is not permitted to set up tables and benches, grills, erect awnings, etc., without seeking permission from the road authority.

The legislation relevant to the use of motorhomes in Denmark is complicated. Therefore, the Danish authorities have recently prepared a description of the laws regarding motorhomes. Unfortunately, the guidance is only available in Danish, so we have tried to outline the most important points here on this page.
