Tickets

Tickets & fees

We offer various ticket types to suit your journey. The canal ticket price is based on boat type, the length of the boat and the number of lock chambers at the lock(s) in question.

Return ticket
We offer a return ticket for longer journeys. This ticket gives you access to the entire Dalsland Canal lake system, on both the outward and the return.

Single ticket for motorboat & sailboat
A single ticket makes sense if you are taking a shorter trip involving just one or a few lock stations. For longer journeys, we recommend that you purchase a return ticket.

Canoe / kayak

When traveling through the canal by kayaking the ticket price is based on the length of the canoe / kayak and the number of lock chambers at the lock(s) in question. The fees for canoes and kayaks are lower than for pleasure boats. 

Dinghy
In addition to the regular lock fee, we charge an extra fee for dinghies.

Season ticket
If you are a member of a boat club based anywhere along the Dalsland Canal, you can purchase a season ticket. The season ticket costs SEK 900 and allows you to pass through the locks at a discounted fee.

Ticket display
As our lock keepers will scan your ticket using a ticket reader, you need to be able to display a printed or digital copy of your ticket. If you do not have a valid ticket to display on arrival at the lock, you can purchase a single ticket directly from the lock keeper with Swedish cash.

Pre- and post-season - on request
During pre- and post-season and you have to book your passages in advance. The fee for lock opening is 425 SEK per lock station in addition to the regular fee.

Pre-book by emailing: info@dalslandskanal.se. We need your request no later than three days before you want to pass through the locks.
