Fur Museum: Gateway to Denmark's Prehistoric Past

Getting There

• Public Transport

  Travelers from the broader Limfjord area usually start by reaching the Sallingsund area by regional bus or train. From there, the journey continues by ferry to Fur island—a classic experience in itself, offering dramatic views across the fjord. The Fur ferry departs frequently, and the crossing takes only a few minutes. Standard walk-on ferry fares are modest (DKK 20–30 per adult), while vehicles cost extra. On arrival at the island’s ferry hub, it’s a brief local bus ride or a pleasant stroll to the heart of Nederby, where the museum is a prominent, well-signposted building amid green surroundings.

• Car

  Visitors arriving by car can follow Limfjord’s major arterial roads to the Fur ferry terminal near Branden. The ferry offers convenient access for vehicles, with crossings every 15–20 minutes. The fare for an average car with passengers is around DKK 110–130 for a return journey. Parking is available close to the museum, but spaces may be limited during peak times, especially in summer. The final approach takes you through the quaint island landscape, with clear signs pointing toward Nederby and the museum itself.

• Taxi

  Taxis from key Limfjord transport hubs such as Skive or Nykøbing Mors provide a direct, comfortable route to the Fur ferry, typically costing DKK 250–400 depending on distance. Upon arrival on Fur, taxis can be pre-booked for the last segment or for return; journeys across the island are short and cost-effective, often around DKK 60–80 per trip. Taxis are especially practical for groups or if visiting outside regular bus hours.

• Cycling

  For active travelers, cycling to Fur is a rewarding approach, with gentle rural roads winding through Limfjord’s villages to the ferry terminal. Bicycles are usually free or incur only a nominal fee on the ferry. Once on Fur, the museum is a comfortable ride from the harbor, with scenic island countryside and minimal traffic to enjoy along the way.
