Highlights
If you want an extraordinary experience without worrying about logistics or transport, this is the tour for you. Hiking before dawn lets you enjoy rare peace, far from the crowds that fill the trail in high season. Your adventure begins early, with pick-up in Stavanger. After a 45-minute drive, we arrive at the trailhead (WC access). After a short briefing and the allocation of practical tips, headlamps, and hiking poles, we ascend through the calm darkness, sometimes lit by the moon. The guide shares local folklore for those interested, adding a touch of mystery to the landscape. The pace includes time for clothing adjustments, breaks, and snacks. After about 2.5 hours, we reach Preikestolen, 604 metres above the Lysefjord, and take in the dramatic panorama—weather permitting, the sunrise paints the mountains in spectacular light. The descent takes about 2 hours, after which we enjoy a simple, fresh breakfast before returning to Stavanger, reflecting on a truly memorable hike.

About Stavanger
Stavanger is a harbour city in south-west Norway, with a wooden old town, a medieval cathedral, its oil history and the fjords of Rogaland beyond.
Stavanger stands on a peninsula in Rogaland, south-west Norway, with a harbour lined with warehouses, cafés and wooden buildings. Gamle Stavanger, the old town, has rows of white wooden houses on cobbled lanes, and the cathedral, begun in the 12th century, is among the oldest in Norway. Oil discoveries in the North Sea from the 1960s made Stavanger the country's oil capital, a story told in the Norwegian Petroleum Museum on the waterfront.
