From 6 October 2018, the Friesenfähre runs between Weener and Mitling-Mark. This year, the ferry will initially be in trial operation until the end of October to test the operation of the ferry service. The crossing will be free of charge for all passengers during the trial operation this year.
During the duration of the trial operation (until 31.10.2018) no fixed ferry times are announced, but published time windows in which the ferry commutes between the investors in Weener and Mitling-Mark.
The ferry can only be operated at the specified times because the Ems is a tidal area. Depending on the tides, the Ems are also affected by the ebb and flow. Since the ferry docks are not located in the main fairway, the ferry can not approach the docks at low tide.
Costs: During the trial run (until 31.10.) The crossing is free of charge.
