About
About Hellesylt ferjekai
Four different operators appear against the Hellesylt to Geiranger run in the timetable, and they do not agree on how long it takes. Vestlandske schedules 45 minutes; FRAM schedules 65. Two more — Fjord X and The Fjords — hold route entries with no sailings against them at all.
The distance is 9.4 nautical miles up one of the most photographed stretches of water in Europe. Seven to eight sailings a week run on each operator's version, all between 08:00 and 18:45, on a single daily calendar.
The difference in journey time is the difference in purpose: the shorter schedule is a transport link, the longer one allows for slowing at the waterfalls. Hellesylt sits at the head of the Sunnylvsfjord below its own waterfall, and the Geirangerfjord beyond it has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2005. Nothing sails after dark or outside the summer season.
