This trip will take you on one of Norway’s most popular and spectacular hikes. It is for good reason that this hike has gained its popularity with visitors to Norway and locals alike. Situated only a few hours from Stavanger, Pulpit Rock - or Preikestolen in Norwegian - is a towering cliff-plateau directly suspended over Lysefjorden. To stand (or sit) so close to the edge is probably the moment that hikers look forward to the most, although it is no easy deed. The top offers unobstructed views over the meandering blue fjord that was formed by the glaciers during the last Ice Age, making it a good spot to enjoy a photo session and possibly a light snack.

    Wow! What an amazing experience, I am so so happy I did this! My tour guide was great, the views were incredible and the trip was well organized but most importantly, I felt safe. I will warn you, if you have bad knees this could be a very very very difficult hike for you, especially on the way down. I am in my 30s and my knees spasmed at the end - I've never had that happen but my years of soccer caught up to me on this hike! If you're out of shape this will be tough, but not impossible just take breaks. My iPhone said I climbed 143 flights of stairs just for reference. Lastly if you're irrationally afraid of heights don't do this. If you're moderately afraid then you can do this. I would say I am a little more then moderately afraid but I had good support by the guide and other hikers and I pushed through the fear. It was worth it!

    Enjoyed the challenging hike. However, the Guide was not helpful or encouraging. He shared many stories about those who did not make it. This caution is great to know, but at the same time it is helpful on a challenging hike to get some positive encouragement. His words of caution were so much that at the end one individual felt bad for being slower and turned around. We had total of five in group with three individuals who were fit and in their late twenties and two individuals in 60s … this was not a good match for pacing . The individual who turned around could have made it with a slower pace and some positive encouragement … this was a trip of lifetime for her. Guide hung back to chit chat with others many times rather than assist those needing help.

    Good walk, it's harder than it looks and you have to be fit. The setting is amazing. Erle is great, friendly and very attentive to everything. Fully recommended!

    Our guide Arla was terrific! Met us on time, promptly drove our group to the base of the mountain, and got us on the trail early. She had a great pace for the uphill trek, given the age range. Despite the unbelievable winds, she took our pictures individually. Such a great bucket list experience!!

  • Must do for the soul

    Published degree of difficulty is WRONG. Should be Moderate-Medium. Many folks on this hike (not in our group) should not be on it. I, along with another person on our hike rendered help to a lady ascending. Felt terrible for her but also affected our psyche.
