About the Kalleli hurtigbåtkai – Songesand ferjekai crossing
Kolumbus provides the short car ferry link across the Lysefjord with six daily crossings. This domestic Norwegian service sails every day of the week, taking just 10 minutes to cover the 2 nautical miles. The first departure from Kalleli is scheduled for 08:35, and the final sailing of the day leaves at 18:20. Fares are determined by the Norwegian AutoPASS system, which primarily charges for vehicles based on length.
Timetable and Connections
The daily schedule offers consistent departure times throughout the day, providing multiple options for planning a trip. With sailings distributed between the morning and early evening, travellers can connect with local road networks on either side of the fjord. The short duration of the crossing makes it a predictable component of any itinerary in the region.
From Kalleli, Kolumbus also runs separate fast ferry services to Flørli and Songesand, alongside another car ferry to Flørli. Songesand's pier is a departure point for ferries to Bakken, Flørli, and Forsand, in addition to a separate fast ferry back to Kalleli. These connections integrate the crossing into a wider network of fjord transport.

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.
