Frederikshavn Center Car Hire

Frederikshavn is an important port city in northern Jutland with ferry connections to Sweden and Norway, and a natural starting point for exploring North Jutland with a rental car. With two rental companies in the center, you can easily pick up a car and drive on toward Skagen or along the Kattegat coast. The city's harbor also offers the opportunity to combine car and boat on your Scandinavian trip.

Frederikshavn center is 70 km north of Aalborg and takes about 50 minutes via E45. Skagen, Denmark's northernmost point, is 40 km to the north (about 30 minutes), and Sæby with its picturesque old town is just 20 km to the south. Drive early to Grenen in Skagen to see Skagerrak and Kattegat meet – parking fills up quickly in summer.

Take a detour via Råbjerg Mile, a migrating sand dune 20 km south of Skagen, which is unique for all of Northern Europe. Check ferry times to Gothenburg if you're planning to continue your trip to Sweden with the rental car. Can I take the rental car on the ferry from Frederikshavn to Sweden?

This depends entirely on the rental company's terms. Stena Line operates the route to Gothenburg, but you must have written permission from the rental company to bring the car on board. How long does it take to drive from Frederikshavn to Aalborg airport?

It takes approximately 50–60 minutes to drive the 70 km south via E45 to Aalborg airport. Are there parking spaces near the rental companies in Frederikshavn? Yes, there are parking spaces in the center and at the harbor.
