For scale
As the crow flies450 km
Biking whole way652 km · 42 h 14 m
By car621 km · 7 h 34 m

We found six ways to get you there, ferries doing the heavy lifting.

Note: Most carriers carry only a handful of bikes, and summer weekends fill up fast. Reserve where you can. Where you can't, go early or have a backup plan.
