This is a must at least once in a lifetime. Visited early May which was a perfect time due not not that many visitors, I can only imagine the amount of people in the popular season. There is a all the way to Preikestolen(The Pulpit Rock), yet the difficulty varies. Set aside at least half a day for this adventure and bring clothes for all weather since it can switch up quickly, and the the weather can be the opposite up on the top from where you start. Good shoes is recommended, especially if the ground is wet since the consist of many stones and natural mountain paths. Good to know before you visit; -there is no restrooms after leaving the parking area and using nature for needs are not allowed. -bring bags for any waste, no bins along the Flott opplevelse både på turen og ved selve Preikestolen Preikestolen is absolutely breathtaking and worth every step of the journey! The itself is not easy – it’s about 4 km up and 4 km back down, and the is rocky, steep in sections, and will definitely test your endurance. Don’t take it lightly – shoes are a must, and I highly recommend carrying plenty of water and some food or snacks to keep your energy up. The path is well marked, and although it’s challenging, the stunning views along the way make it rewarding. Reaching the top and standing on the famous cliff overlooking the fjord is truly unforgettable – one of the most spectacular sights I’ve ever experienced. If you’re prepared, this is a must-do in Norway! The is a bit challenging at times, but totally worth it. The view from the top is spectacular. Do not stay lint after sunset, as it can become quite dark on the way back to the camp, even during the summer months Eine wundervolle Wanderung mit tollem Ausblick. Mit Pausen haben wir insgesamt 5h benötigt, sind 10,3km gelaufen, 500 Höhenmeter. Mit Kindern ab ca 6/7 Jahre gut machbar, wenn sie schon Wandererfahrung haben. Einige Stufen sind wirklich sehr hoch, aber es ist machbar. Auf dem Preikestolen selbst war es bei uns sehr, sehr voll, ein Sonntag im Sommer ... Noch etwas höher wandern und man schaut von oben auf den Stein, das ist noch schöner! Breath taking views on a breath taking (literally) hike. First: The reason why everyone does this! The view from the pulpit rock is extraordinary over the fjord. It's majestic for miles, gorgeous scenery. It just all feels serene, especially being so high up and the sheer drop off. You can spend quite a bit of time lounging taking it all in. Second: The hiking itself. It's 4km one way (8km round-trip). The is moderate with a 450m elevation gain. It'll take an average fit person 1.5 to 2 hours to get up on a day. The sherpas have been working hard to make the easier over the years, carving out rocks (you can see quite a bit of tool marks,) but no less still a moderate hike. Third: Preparation. 250 Nok parking fee. There are no facilities on the hike, besides at base camp. Pack water, a snack, or a meal if you want to stay at the summit for longer. Wear proper footwear... if it's rained recently, it's gonna be slick. Tennis shoes are only going to cut it when it's nice out, and it's been nice out the last few days. Use hiking shoes. At the summit, it's dangerous, there are warnings, it's a sheer cliff face. Don't be stupid and hang off the side, people get seriously injured or die. You'll ruin it for everyone if you're stupid. Fourth: Timing is everything. Go early or way later to avoid crowds. I mean huge crowds. 9am still had 25 people minimum up at the pulpit. There are going to be lots of people on the trail. Overall, enjoy a 3-4 hour long hike, a scenic view at the top, and all the glorious nature you can soak in. Photos were taken in end of August, nice weather that you don’t even need to put on the jacket. It’s for practice before going the other 2 Stones if you haven’t for long. Don’t pay the carpark until you ready to leave, they only allow 1 hour after you pay, I exit in 59 minutes but it wants me to pay again. 先購買公車票,早點出發人比較少 來回要辛苦步行4小時,你的付出絕對值得. 穿一雙好鞋,部分路段濕滑,要小心行走. Nice hiking.locals says. Difficulty 1 out of 5 because of very services (public WC, shops, bar etc). Path is very well defined and the status is good. It is rocky. Very rocky. Around 4km and 400m uphill. 왕복 4시간 하이킹 즐겁게 다녀왔습니다. 바위가 많아서 접지력 좋은 신발을 신어야 변할 듯 합니다 정상에서의 바람이 너무 서차게 불어서 즐겁고 신나고 무서웠습니다 An absolutely beautiful hiking experience and a great way to see Norway's scenic fjords from a great vista! It's a fairly strenuous and shoes, water, and some light snacks are a must. Hiking poles are also recommended. Great visitor center and cafe at the base camp area. Spektakulärer Ausblick aufs Fjord, den man nach zweistündigem, anstrengendem Aufstieg über einen gut präparierten Weg mit vielen anderen Besuchern genießen kann. Fantastic experience even on a rainy, cloudy day, well worth it. Perhaps the most impressive I’ve been on. A workout but not overly difficult, most should be able to complete without difficulty. We went in the early morning and that made parking and hiking a lot easier Fin tur, passe tung å gå. Veldig fint på toppen 😁 A wonderful place! We visited on a warm summer day. The wasn’t too difficult, and the view was truly impressive! There was no parking spots available so we have to walk 3.5km to the track. But it was worth it! Due to a weather conditions the track was packed with people Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
