About the Hebnes hurtigbåtkai – Ropeid hurtigbåtkai crossing
Hebnes and Ropeid are separated by approximately 11 nautical miles across the waters of Rogaland county, Norway. This domestic route is operated by Kolumbus. The crossing takes between 30 and 35 minutes depending on the specific sailing. Fares are determined by the Norwegian AutoPASS system, which primarily charges for vehicles based on length.
Timetable and Connections
The service currently operates on Sundays only, with just two scheduled sailings. The first departure from Hebnes is at 12:10 and the final one is at 15:35. This limited timetable positions the link as a specific weekend connection within the local ferry network rather than a high-frequency commuter route. Both ports serve as nodes for other local Kolumbus services.
From the quay at Hebnes, other ferries connect to Foldøy, Jelsa, Nedstrand, and Vormestrand. The terminal at Ropeid provides onward connections to Marvik, Sand, and Sauda hurtigbåtkai. These links collectively form a key part of the public transport infrastructure in this part of western Norway, connecting small communities where road access is indirect.
