The island of Fårö is located north of the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. For some tourist information, start here!

For travel by sea:
Contact your travel agent soonest possible as August is a busy holiday time for the ferries between the Swedish mainland and Gotland (Visby).

Travel for those not using the HF 04 bus shuttle:
We assume that those who will go to the conference will go by (rental) car. Rental cars may be picked up at the airport as well as at the ferry port. Drive road 148 to Fårösund, then take the free ferry to Fårö
