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.

5.00We were picked up by Andrea right on time at our hotel. We were the only two people that day, so it was a private tour. Grateful that the company did not cancel the tour. Andrea was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable and accommodating. The hike was moderately strenuous. We lucked out - there was not a single person on the rock when we arrived.

5.00Marius was an outstanding guide who took great care of us under challenging conditions (strong winds and some ice). Early start was ideal as we reached the Rock before the crowds arrived. Marius also took us to see Bronze Age rock carvings by the sea on the way back which was a real bonus. I would thoroughly recommend this trip.
Fun!

5.00Thank you kent ( I hope I spelled it right😅) for a unforgettable trip to the pulpit rock. I've just found the film you talked about, Troll hunter, guess I'll be trying it at some time soon. Loved your jokes and explanations. Also great thanks to all our group members. I hope our road of life cross each other again
