Preikestolen
Day 1
Upon arriving at Stavanger Airport, I will greet you, and we will travel by mountain roads to the accommodation. We will settle in a mountain cabin (hytte) situated away from the city.
After preparing a communal dinner, we will get to know each other better and discuss the routes of the upcoming hikes as well as the contents of our backpacks.
Day 2
Early in the morning, after a hearty breakfast and having replenished our backpacks with snacks, we will head towards our first hike - Preikestolen.
This mountain, formed over 10,000 years ago, is the most famous natural landmark in Norway. From the 604 meters high cliff's summit, breathtaking views unfold.
The hike to Preikestolen is of moderate difficulty. In total, the 8-kilometer hike takes about 4-5 hours (round trip). The trail, with changing terrain, includes marshes, forests, and stone stairs.
After descending from the mountains, we'll have the opportunity to treat ourselves not only to coffee and waffles but also to a delicious dinner at the nearby café with a view of nature.
Day 3
Early risers see much.
After checking the weather conditions, having breakfast, replenishing our backpacks with food and spare clothes (as mountain weather often changes), we will embark on a very mountainous hike that will require considerable endurance.
Located at an altitude of 1084 meters above sea level, Kjerag is the highest peak above Lysefjord, famous worldwide for the Kjeragbolten boulder! The mountain plateau is also very popular among base jumpers and climbers.
The hike to Kjerag is approximately 11 kilometers long, and the round trip takes 6-10 hours. Before embarking on this mountain hike, which reaches an altitude of 800 meters, you must be in good physical shape.
After a challenging tour, we will treat ourselves to a delicious dinner at a café with a fantastic view through the window, near the parking lot - where the tour began.
Day 4
A day of relaxation on the most beautiful Stavanger island.
We will visit the Flor & Fjære family garden. Over three generations, with passion, the garden has grown from a wind-swept cabin into a colorful oasis.
We will start the tour by taking a boat from Stavanger to the island. On the island, a guide will greet us, providing a tour of the island and sharing its history and the surrounding plants. The tour takes about 40 minutes.
After the tour, a 3-course dinner will be served, consisting of an appetizer, main course, and dessert with coffee.
Following dinner, you will have about an hour to explore the garden independently or simply relax on a beach bed or a bench among the flowers.
Day 5
This is a short hike - about 1 hour round trip - to Månafossen waterfall, but the hike requires a bit of effort. The first 100 meters of the trail have stone stairs. Additionally, stairs and chains are placed in steeper areas to aid climbing, and in rainy weather, some parts of the trail may be slippery, so having good footwear is important. Despite this, it's worth the effort. You will experience amazing views when you climb and see the waterfall rushing through a narrow gap, almost 100 meters down into the river.
Well, we will conclude our journey through the Norwegian mountains by preparing a hearty dinner and sharing impressions from the 5-day tour.
Day 6
