About the Kalleli hurtigbåtkai – Songesand hurtigbåtkai crossing
Three departures, three different day patterns, and a season that closes at the end of this month. The sailings leave at 07:50 Monday to Friday, 15:50 every day except Saturday, and 18:50 on Fridays and Sundays. All of them stop on 31 August 2026.
A five-minute crossing on the Lysefjord
The passage covers about 2.2 nautical miles in 5 minutes, which puts the boat at well over twenty knots on a very short run. These are express craft working the inner Lysefjord, where the shores are steep and the road access is limited or absent.
No two sailings share a calendar
The morning boat is a weekday one, the afternoon runs six days, the evening two. On a route with three departures that fragmentation matters more than it would on a busy crossing — there is no fallback within the same day.
What happens in September
Nothing on this pairing is timetabled beyond the end of August. Lysefjord services are strongly seasonal, and the summer pattern above should not be read as an indication of what runs in autumn.

How much does a ticket cost?

Does the ferry run all year?
Sailings operate on selected days, 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.
