We were there in the summer of 2018 dreamlike. Absolutely sturdy footwear.

And whoever has knee problems better not make the descent will go to hell.

As one of the most spectacular viewpoints in Norway, Preikestolen is also one of the most popular hiking destinations in the country. The platform drops vertically over 600 meters into the sea and offers a fantastic view of the Lysefjord and the surrounding mountains. It is best to start early in the morning or in the evening (don't forget your headlamp!) to enjoy the view before the crowds of tourists arrive.

sturdy shoes, take water. Either totally early or start in the afternoon, otherwise you have to with the flood of people up the mountain. That means then in the traffic jam (!) The mountain up or down.
