About the Songesand ferjekai – Kalleli hurtigbåtkai crossing
Kalleli is reached from Songesand via a ferry that crosses the Lysefjord in just 10 minutes. This domestic Norwegian car ferry is operated by Kolumbus and covers a distance of approximately 2 nautical miles. The service runs every day, with five scheduled sailings between the first departure at 06:45 and the final crossing at 16:45.
Route Comparison
This 10-minute crossing provides a direct link across the fjord, forming part of Norwegian county road Fv4224. The alternative to using the ferry is a significant road journey, typically involving driving around the Høgsfjorden via the Ryfylke Tunnel or the Oanes-Lauvvik ferry, followed by a long drive inland to access the opposite side of the Lysefjord.
Pricing is managed under the Norwegian AutoPASS system, where vehicles are charged based on length. Both Songesand and Kalleli serve as interchanges for other local fjord services; connections are available from both ports to locations including Flørli, Bakken, and Forsand, expanding the transport network within the region.
