By joining our guided sunrise hike, you don’t have to worry about logistics or timing. We highly recommend this tour if you want to avoid the thousands of people that will be on the trail during the high-season (June, July, August). Hike in the peace and quiet of dawn instead!
Being at the top as twilight turns to dawn can be magical. But, even on cloudy days, the lack of crowds makes it totally worth going so early.
Please be ready at the Lodge restaurant/lobby at the time specified in our pick-up information.
This activity ends back at the meeting point.
Our car is well marked, and the guide knows who they are picking up. Please note that the pick-up time of 00:00 (midnight) is a generic time: We have different pick-up times for different locations AND FOR DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE YEAR. Also note that pick-up time varies over the course of the season due to sunrise happening at different times. Please contact us to get your pick-up time!
The adventure starts with being picked up very early in the morning by our guide from one of several designated locations in Stavanger. Pick-up times varies, so please check out pick-up time table. Also, book on the morning you wish to see the sunrise, not the night before. After a 45-minute drive, we arrive at the start of the trail (where restrooms are available). When everyone is ready, and the headlamps are on, the hike begins. The landscape is dark and quiet. The towering trees in the forest make the imagination run wild! The pace allows for time to adjust clothes and equipment, time to rest and enjoy snacks.
After ca. 2.5 hours of hiking, we will arrive at Preikestolen, 604 meters above the legendary Lysefjorden. The sheer cliff overlooks the fjord makes for a fantastic reward after all the work it took to get there. If we are lucky, the sun will show itself as it climbs over the mountain ridges.
After we have enjoyed the scenery and relaxed for a while, we head back down. It normally takes about 2 hours to get back down to Base-camp. In the comfort of the mountain lodge, we will enjoy a simple, but fresh and tasty breakfast. Exhausted but satisfied, we get back in the car.
