If you don't want to be in the pulpit with 100,000 people, get going early. Early doesn't mean 8:00 or something like that. I left with my wife at 4:00 today, 10 years ago, in sunny weather, we left at 3:00. The sunrise over the fjord hangs big in the apartment. It's worth starting early, even if word has gotten around in the meantime.

This highlight does not mark the Preikestolen platform, but a viewpoint higher up overlooking it! Actually the most beautiful photo spot!
