Norway - Hike to Preikestolen

If you love traveling, hiking and nature then you will absolutely love preikestolen - the pulpit rock in Norway. The hike to Pulpit Rock is one of the most popular hikes in Norway and when you get there you will be overwhelmed by the breathtaking view. It is easy accessible from Stavanger . From Stavanger you travel by ferry to Tau town. And from there you take the bus to the park.

So if brought along your hike shoes and enough food, you should easily hike to preikestolen. It's about 3800 meters in length but be aware that you are also going up. If you walk in a normal tempo you should reach it within 2 hours.

Welcome, your pictures are quite impacting.

Yeah, 2 hours... That's what I've told my 50-year old mom before I took her on that hike. 4.5 hours later, when we've finally got to "trolltunga", she was about to kill me :(
