What To Expect

Beat the crowd to Kjerag and join this early morning hike to Kjerag. Starting with cruise at Lysefjord you can relax and enjoy the beautiful landscapes around the fjord, Pulpit Rock and Kjerag from sea-level. The transport from Stavanger to the trailhead is about 2.5 hours and not without its charm. Once there, the trail will take you through beautiful mountainous terrain with changing landscape and impressive views of the area. Having reached the Kjerag plateau, after 2 to 3 hours, you will spend time enjoying the view, nature and most likely taking photos. Some may be courageous enough to climb onto the bolt, and if you are lucky, we may be able to observe BASE jumpers diving from cliffs and down to Lysefjorden. This is when you can also enjoy your packed lunch and some snacks before you head back down and back to Stavanger.
