The hike to the mountain plateau Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) is one of Norway's most famous hikes. The marked trail takes you through varied nature and landscapes, sometimes bearing steep uphill, partly on stonebuilt steps and leads you all the way out onto the spectacular viewpoint 604 meters above the Lysefjord.

THE ABYSS

About 604 vertical meters above the Lysefjord, the plateau of Preikestolen is hanging, slightly swaying beyond the abyss. An amazing view as you walk the final meters of the path, which is replaces by a tingling feeling you might never have experienced before, as you step on to the great granite block with nothing but empty air on three of its sides. Enjoy!
