Pulpit Rock

Pulpit Rock (Preikestolen) is an iconic natural landmark situated in Strand, Norway, that overlooks Lysefjorden. It stands at a staggering 604m above the fjord and its summit plateau measures 25x25m. The plateau was created by vast amounts of ice and snow that slowly eroded the sides of the mountain. It can be reached via a short, manageable yet picturesque hike of about 2 hours in duration. Once you reach the rock, you will be presented with incredible panoramic 180-degree views of the Lysefjord and its surrounding areas. Pulpit Rock is also a great place where you can spot an abundance of flora and fauna, particularly in the summer months. On any given day, it attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world who wish to appreciate its natural beauty.
