Kvineshei Tunnel ( _no. Kvinesheitunnelen) is the fourth longest railway tunnel in Norway and located between Snartemo Station and Kvinesdal on Sørlandsbanen. It was opened in 1943 when Sørlandsbanen was extended to Moi. The 9,065 meter long tunnel includes a 9,020 meters straight strech, the longest on the Norwegian railway network, 5 meters longer than the one in Romeriksporten.
