Island Hopping in Hiking Boots
All-inclusive island-hop with a stay at Avernakø Landhotel.
Experience two islands in one trip through the South Funen Archipelago – Avernakø and Lyø.
We take care of everything, from ferry tickets and luggage transport to accommodation and meals. Here’s your chance to explore a part of a UNESCO Global Geopark.
Programme
Day 1: The journey starts in Faaborg at 9:45 AM. The island ferry departs from Kanalvej 13 at 10:00. First stop is Lyø, with arrival at 10:40. When boarding the ferry, you’ll find a clearly marked luggage “bur”(=cage) – place your bags there and the ferry staff will ensure a safe delivery to Avernakø, where we’ll bring it to the hotel.
On Lyø, you’ll have 4 hours to explore the beautiful island. There’s a café next to the church, or you can bring your own lunch.
The ferry departs from Lyø to Avernakø at 14:40. From Avernakø Harbour, it’s a 1.5 km walk to the hotel, where your luggage and room will be ready. At 16:00, we welcome you with coffee and cake. After dinner, you may feel like a walk – or let Avernakø’s stunning nature wait until day two.
Day 2: Prepare a packed lunch during breakfast – there are many perfect picnic spots along the way, such as the lunch hut on Skallevejen. Leave your luggage at the hotel, and we’ll bring it to the ferry for you.
Plan your trip so you can catch the return ferry to Faaborg at either 15:10 or 16:35.
Dogs are very welcome, but must be noted when booking.
It is possible to book an extra overnight stay, including dinner, breakfast, and packed lunches (DKK 700 for adults, DKK 400 for children). To extend your island hop, contact us at: kontakt@avernakoelandhotel.dk.
