Preikestolen is one of those unmissable, once-in-a-lifetime hikes. On this tour, you’ll get to experience it — along with a comfortable bus ride from Stavanger and time to explore Stavanger itself!
Stavanger, Norway’s third largest city, is your perfect getaway to the fjords — and to the impressive rock formations that surround them, like Preikestolen. This 2-day tour is your chance to explore both!
After checking in at your hotel on Day 1 (3:00 PM), you get the evening to enjoy Stavanger’s vibrant streets, landmarks and eateries. The next day, you’ll hop on a comfortable and direct bus ride to Preikestolen: your hike will take you all the way up to the summit, amid breathtaking vistas to Lysefjord.
On your bus ride back to Stavanger, you can let the atmospheric blue lights of the Ryfast, the new sub-sea tunnel, help you relax. You have one more night at the hotel to wind down after an unforgettable day.
The next day, check-out is before 12.
This package includes 2 nights at a hotel of your choice: all hotels on our list are centrally located in downtown Stavanger!
Don’t miss this chance to hike the iconic Preikestolen and experience all Stavanger has to offer!
Preikestolen
Towering 604 meters (1981ft.) above sea level, the iconic rock formation that makes up Preikestolen (the Pulpit Rock), is among the most popular attractions in Norway. The hiking destination has been named one of the world's most spectacular viewing points by both CNN and Lonely Planet.
Hiking terrain
There are plenty of beautiful spots to rest along the trail of this hiking trip. Cool down with a swim in one of the mountain waters. Appreciate the change in scenery as you ascend beyond the treetops and get a panoramic view of the Lysefjord.
Stavanger Harbor
The harbor in Stavanger is rich in experiences in many ways. Restaurants and bars are lined up in the old wooden houses, and the cobbled alleys house many cafes and shops.
Old Stavanger
The old part of Stavanger consists of 173 restored wooden houses. Between the houses there are cobbled streets, perfect for a leisurely stroll.
Fargegaten
Fargegaten, or the colorful street, is a charming bar street where the houses are painted in all the colors of the rainbow. In the evening, light chains light up the street, which makes the experience even more unique.
