A Bit in English

The “Næssund” is one of the oldest route going wooden ferries in Denmark. Built in 1964 in a local ship yard it startet it’s existence as “Legind Bjerge”, one of two ferries on the Sallingsund crossing.

When the Sallingsund bridge was opened in 1978 the ferries was taken out of use and in 1980 “Legind Bjerge” was transferred to the Næssund crossing, and the name was changed.

On weekdays “Næssund” sails every 20 minutes between 6.30 am and 6.10pm from Mors, and 5 minutes later from Thy. Weekends and bank holidays between 9.30 and 6.10pm and 5 minutes later from Thy.

The crossing takes about 5 minutes and is an excellent way to break up a journey. The ferry deck is closed of with approximately  3.5 foot sides so it is safe to let the children out to release a bit of the energy they built up during a car journey.

The old B&W Alpha engine sounds just like a ferry engine is supposed to sound and the idyllic scenery at Næssund is the perfect backdrop for a small journey not only across the fjord, but also a bit back in time.

The ferry accommodates 12 cars / 99 passengers, and if there isn’t room for all cars it will cross again at once to pick up the rest.
