About the Halsnøy ferjekai – Eidssund ferjekai crossing
Eidssund is a 15-minute ferry crossing from Halsnøy, with operator Kolumbus providing the service. This short domestic route in Norway covers a distance of approximately 2 nautical miles. Seventeen sailings are scheduled every day, beginning at 00:05 and with the final departure at 22:30.
Route Comparison
The crossing is priced under the Norwegian AutoPASS system, where vehicle length determines the fare. From Halsnøy, the only other direct ferry connection is to Judaberg ferjekai. Eidssund, however, functions as a small local hub with additional Kolumbus services connecting to Helgøy ferjekai, Judaberg ferjekai, and Nord-Hidle ferjekai.
As part of the regional network, this route provides a direct water link between the islands of Halsnøy and Ombo. The alternative for vehicles would involve multiple longer ferry crossings and significant driving detours via the mainland to connect the same two islands.

Frequently asked questions
Can I book the return crossing too?

What's the duration of this crossing?
Roughly 15m.

What time is the last sailing?

How much does a ticket cost?
On most Norwegian road-network ferries, foot passengers and cyclists travel free; cars and larger vehicles are charged automatically via AutoPASS by vehicle length and crossing, so there is no single ticket price. Register an AutoPASS ferry account in advance for a discount, and check Kolumbus for the current tariff.
Can I do this as a day trip?
A day trip is often possible: with a crossing of about 15m and several sailings a day (first 00:05, last 22:30), you can return the same day. Always check the return timetable before you go.
Does the ferry run all year?
Sailings run daily, and frequency can change between the summer and winter seasons. The timetable above shows the latest published departures — confirm with the operator for off-season dates.
Can I take a car on this ferry?
Kolumbus does not list vehicle space on this service — plan to travel as a foot passenger. If you need to bring a car, check with the operator for alternative crossings.
Can I take a pet on this ferry?
Most ferry operators allow pets on this route, usually in a carrier, on deck or in designated pet areas or cabins, and registered assistance dogs travel free. Rules and any fees vary by operator and vessel — check with Kolumbus, so declare your pet when booking.
What's the luggage allowance?
Foot passengers can normally bring their own luggage aboard at no extra charge, with racks or a luggage area near the entrance, and there is usually no airline-style weight limit. Oversized or excess items may carry a fee, so check with the operator if you are travelling with bulky baggage.
