Preikestolen, known in English as Pulpit Rock, is a steep cliff in Strand Municipality in Rogaland, south-western Norway, rising 604 metres above the Lysefjord. The trail starts at the car park by Preikestolen Fjellstue, just south of J\u00f8rpeland, about 25 kilometres from Stavanger: since the Ryfylke tunnel opened in 2020 the drive from the city takes about 40 minutes, with a toll for the tunnel and a fee for parking. In season buses also run from Stavanger to the trailhead, and boat trips on the Lysefjord pass beneath the cliff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Was den Preikestolen so ber\u00fchmt macht<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Its almost flat top, roughly 25 by 25 metres, hangs above the deep blue fjord as if cut with a knife: the plateau and the cracks around it were formed about 10,000 years ago, when frost and the retreating glacier broke away large angular blocks. Once a landmark for boats on the fjord, it became a hiking destination around 1900, and today it is one of Norway’s most visited natural attractions, with some 300,000 visitors in 2024. Standing near the unfenced edge, with the fjord far below, is the experience that draws them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Praktische Informationen und Tipps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Der Weg ist pro Richtung etwa 3,8 Kilometer lang, hin und zur\u00fcck braucht man bei durchschnittlicher Kondition 3 bis 4 Stunden reine Gehzeit, mit langer Pause oben entsprechend mehr. Er beginnt auf etwa 270 Metern H\u00f6he und \u00fcberwindet zwar nur rund 330 H\u00f6henmeter Differenz, f\u00fchrt aber \u00fcber mehrere Kuppen auf und ab; 2013 wurde er von nepalesischen Sherpas mit Steinstufen ausgebaut. Gute Schuhe, warme und wasserdichte Kleidung sowie Essen und Trinken mitnehmen, denn unterwegs gibt es keinerlei Einrichtungen. Hauptsaison ist von April bis Oktober; im Winter liegen auf dem Weg oft Schnee und Eis, und eine gef\u00fchrte Tour wird empfohlen. Wer fr\u00fch oder sp\u00e4t am Tag startet, meidet die Massen und die vollsten Stunden am Parkplatz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
