What you can expect

Embark on the ultimate Lysefjord adventure with our Pulpit Rock RIB & Hike tour where you’ll both behold the grandeur of Pulpit Rock from below and experience its stunning view from above, all in one continuous journey. Combining a riveting RIB-Safari with an awe-inspiring summit hike, this one-of-a-kind expedition will give you the full Norwegian fjord experience in one unforgettable day.

Instead of waiting in traffic on your way to basecamp, the fun starts straightaway as you head out from Stavanger on a high-speed RIB-boat into the open sea, feeling the freedom of its vast expanse, wind blowing through your hair as you zoom past islets, skerries and reefs.

Entering the Lysefjord, you’ll have a front-row seat to its dramatic landscape carved by millennia of ice ages. Your captain will give you a guided tour of its wonders, taking you right up close to hidden caves, gargantuan waterfalls, and the gravity-defying cliff face of Pulpit Rock, towering over 600 metres above you. You’ll admire Its iconic shape, sculpted by a melting glacier 10 000 years ago, and see with your own eyes why its first climber thought it fitting to name it after a preacher’s pulpit. It’s quite a view, but for you, also a summit waiting to be conquered.

The climb will start from the fjord itself. You’ll be dropped off at a nearby quay where our experienced nature guides will greet you. They’ll take you on a short minibus ride to Basecamp from where you’ll walk one of the most famous trails in all of Norway. The path starts out gentle, winding through a serene forest, but growing steeper as you ascend. Our guides will support you along the way, cheering you on and sharing captivating tales of the region’s history and wildlife.

Your sense of achievement when you finally reach the peak will be truly unparalleled. As you step onto the Pulpit Rock plateau, a panoramic spectacle of the fjord will unfold before you. Long considered one of the most astonishing vantage points on the entire planet, your view from the top will feel all the more gratifying, magnified by the amazing journey you took to get there. As you peer over the edge, you’ll marvel at the thought that just hours ago, you were gazing up from a boat at this very cliff.

Afterwards, you’ll be returned to Stavanger in a minibus, still smiling from having partaken in a truly spectacular adventure.
