What to expect

This is one of Norway's most popular hike, and it's not without a reason. Join this hike, explore the nature, and admire the scenic view from the top. The trail is well marked and easy to follow, but - depending on the weather - the rocks may become slippery in some of the more demanding areas. Some hiking experience is desirable, but not mandatory.

After the pick-up, your tour will start with a 40-minute car ride to the trailhead at the Preikestolen parking. You'll be driven through the world's longest and deepest undersea tunnel, which will allow you and your hiking group to quickly overcome the water area between Stavanger and the hiking trail. Parts of the drive will also be along one of the fjords close to Stavanger and the Norwegian countryside.

The hike up will then take around 2 to 3 hours. Once at Pulpit Rock, there will be time to admire the view and the beautiful nature all around, take some photos, and enjoy your packed lunch, with some drinks and snacks. The hike back will likely also take around 2 to 3 hours, with the expected arrival time in Stavanger around 3/4pm.

Hikers should be prepared with clothes and shoes accordingly to the weather forecast. Hiking boots are strongly encouraged, or approach shoes, at the very least. Other suggestions include warm, windproof and waterproof clothing
Bring some water with you to keep hydrated, preferably in a container that can be refilled on the trail. Norwegian mountains are full of crystal clear, clean and very tasty water sources. Lunch will not be provided, so please bring your own food and snacks
Last but not least, each hiker is responsible for carrying his/her own gear, so a suitable backpack is recommended
Approximately 8km distance in total
