About the Hella ferjekai – Vangsnes ferjekai crossing
Forty-seven departures from 00:30 to 23:20, and every single one runs seven days a week. There is no weekday version, no weekend variant and no seasonal edition in the listing.
Fifteen minutes across the fjord
2.3 nautical miles at nine knots from Hella on the north shore to Vangsnes on the south. This is the longer of the two crossings from this quay; Dragsvik is a mile away and ten minutes.
Vangsnes and the statue
The village on the promontory carries a twelve-metre bronze of the legendary hero Fridtjof, given by Kaiser Wilhelm II in 1913 and visible from the water on the way in.
23 July to 13 December 2026
A twenty-three-hour service on a single calendar. On the Rv13 this is not a ferry route so much as a stretch of road that floats.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a domestic or international route?
Domestic — the whole crossing stays within Norway.
How long is the ferry ride?
Around 15m, depending on sea conditions.
When's the first ferry of the day?
The first sailing leaves at 00:30.
Is there a ferry back from Vangsnes?

How many times a day does it sail?

Which company runs this ferry?

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 Skyss 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 00:30, last 23:20), 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?
Skyss 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 Skyss, 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.
