Join this thrilling hike to Pulpit Rock in Lysefjord from Stavanger and discover one of Norway's most famous natural landmarks!

Stavanger is the fourth-largest city in Norway, located in the southwestern part of the country. It has a rich history that dates back to the Viking Age. The city also serves as a gateway to Lysefjord and Pulpit Rock in Rogaland County.

The hike to Pulpit Rock begins with pick-up from your accommodation in Stavanger (please specify your location upon booking). The experienced guide will collect you and you'll begin a 40-minute scenic drive towards Lysefjord. Along the way, you'll have excellent views of the town of Jørpeland, situated along the beautiful Årdalsfjorden. You'll also drive through the world's longest and deepest undersea tunnel!

Upon arrival at the starting point for the hike at Pulpit Rock, you'll go through a quick safety briefing and prepare your gear. Then, the hiking trip in Lysefjord begins! Pulpit Rock is a natural formation that rises 604 metres (1,982 feet) above Lysefjord, providing a stunning panoramic view of the fjord and surrounding mountains. Following the guide, you'll begin walking on the hiking trail, which is considered moderate. The hike will take approximately 2.5 hours each way, including breaks.

When you arrive at the top of Pulpit Rock, you'll sit and admire the view from the rock's flat plateau. This hike can also be done in the winter, when the surrounding area is transformed into a white wonderland! After enjoying the view, you'll begin hiking back towards the starting point. At the base camp, you'll have some free time to purchase food and souvenirs if you wish. Then, the guide will drive you back to your accommodation in Stavanger.

This hike to Pulpit Rock from Stavanger is a must-do experience while visiting this region of Norway, available all year round!
