Hönöleden is a ferry service that connects Hönö Island to the mainland through Gothenburg Archipelago. The route travels across the waters of western Sweden's island region, serving residential communities with regular sailings.
The ferry service began in the early 20th century, establishing a vital link for island commuters. It shaped how communities on and around Hönö developed and connected economically with the mainland.
The ferry transportation system represents a core element of daily life for island residents who maintain maritime traditions of the Swedish west coast.
