Extra buses to Schiermonnikoog in Ascension and Whitsun weekends. Temporarily more rides on line 163 between Groningen and Lauwersoog

Because many people go to Schiermonnikoog in both the Ascension and Whitsun weekends, Qbuzz makes extra trips with bus line 163 (Groningen – Lauwersoog) during these long weekends.

Bus line 163 runs every hour from Groningen to Lauwersoog on Wednesday 25 May and Friday 3 June between 13.00 and 19.00. The extra buses from Groningen Main Station connect to the express boat to Schiermonnikoog at 3:09 PM and 6:09 PM. Following the departure times of some ferries to Schiermonnikoog, two buses instead of one run from Groningen to Lauwersoog.

On Sunday 29 May and Monday 6 June, bus 163 will run from Lauwersoog to Groningen every hour between 2.25 pm and 8.25 pm. In addition, following the arrival of several ferries, a second bus will run from Lauwersoog to Groningen.

You can travel with bus line 163 with the OV chip card. You can also buy a ticket from the driver – pay with the pin. Each adult with a valid ticket can take a maximum of three children from 4 to 11 years old on the bus for free.
