*INCREDIBLE CLIFF* A perfect way to start the day

After a 1-2 hour hike you will reach this crazy viewpoint! Totally worth seeing.
Looking out over the Lysefjord from the Pulpit Rock (also known as Preikestolen) is an experience of a lifetime. Combine the hike with a fjord cruise or join a guided tour at night or off the beaten track. The six kilometre hike starts at the mountain lodge Preikestolen Fjellstue. Allow a total of four hours for this moderately demanding roundtrip that ascends 350 metres. Join one of the guided tours that run daily from April to October (subject to weather conditions), or admire the cliff from a sightseeing boat on the fjord, or do both – some tours offer combined hikes and cruises. If you are concerned about sharing Preikestolen with too many people, start the walk at night and you will experience a bit of magic when the sun rises. The nearest places to stay are Preikestolen Fjellstue and Lilland Hotell. You can also stay overnight in Stavanger, from where you can take a boat trip on the Lysefjord. Rated as one of the world’s natural wonders, and the most breathtaking viewing platform, Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) is a must-see attraction for visitors to Norway. It was not until the athlete Thomas Peter Randulf first noticed Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) that the plateau was given its name and began its journey to fame. While on board the ship Oscar II, Randulf spotted the enormous plateau hanging above Lysefjorden. It was on that boat trip that he decided to conquer the massive flat rock above the fjord, which is how Preikestolen became one of Norway’s most well known tourist attractions. A lot of enhancements have taken place since then, such as the building of a modern mountain lodge, upgrading the road and parking lot, as well as improving the hiking trail. Also, the number of visitors and hikers has increased tremendously. The nearly flat shelf is in the shape of a square, measuring approximately 25 x 25 meters. Geologists believe it was frost that shaped the plateau this way 10 000 years ago, as the edge of the glacier ended just above the rock. Water froze in the cracks of the mountain, forcing giant rocks down the sides along with the glacier. Today, there is a huge crack you must pass to get out to the edge of Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock). Still, there is no reason to worry about the plateau falling down, as geologists promise that it is safe to walk on. If you wish to experience reaching the top of Preikestolen, and perhaps even sit on the very edge of the plateau, there is only one option: taking the hike to the top. Following the steep and narrow trail to the top will add the joy of walking through nature, while experiencing a thrilling wow-moment when reaching the summit. Also, Experience the silence of the mountains before the high season kicks in. Join Outdoorlife Norway on this spring hike to Kjerag, the famous round rock that sits wedged in between two mountain sides. You may choose to watch the boulder, which hangs at 984 metres above sea level, from a distance rather than stepping on to it. Nevertheless, the hike provides priceless views of the Lysefjord, where steep mountains rise 1,000 metres straight out of the water. This is a challenging 6-hour hike, suitable for adults over 16 years who are in very good condition and have previous hiking experience. The tour is available 18 May – 9 June, and it is likely to be snow left in the mountains.
