Travelling around Åland

It is easy to get around the Åland Islands, both by land and sea.  The ground rules are simple: all islands that are inhabited have ferries and paths. If you want to get to the other islands you are best off going by boat.  

The menu on the left points you to more information about travelling around on a bicycle, by car, by boat and by bus. The Åland Islands are known as cycle-friendly islands. The short distances from A to B make them excellent for cycling. The furthest distance between east and west on the main Åland island is no more than 50 km.

The fact is that a large part of the Åland experience is to get out to the islands, to the small villages. Try out all the differents modes of travel and you'll get the most out of your trip!
