What To Expect
Your Norwegian guide will pick you and your group up at your hotel reception at 7 am, and you head out on the E39 coastal road in the direction of Stavanger. At Halhjem your group board the ferry and do the crossing for almost one hour as we sail through the scenic fjord landscape. After disembarking at Stord Island, you drive across the Island to then plunge into the deep in one of Norway’s deepest road tunnels. The bottom is 262 meters under the sea.
Reaching Aksdal outside Haugesund you will have a brief coffee break allowing you to visit the toilet or have a snack. As we leave Aksdal you will see a dramatic change in the landscape, and this leads to the second ferry crossing on the border to the North Sea. As we come to a shore in Arsvaagen we head out to the old Utstein Convent built by the Catholic Order of Saint Augustine. The Convent dates back to about 1260.
Next, we head through Stavanger and the last ferry ride, and you arrive at the hiking trail at roughly 1400 hours. You will hike up the trail from the parking by yourselves (the guide will not follow you up to leave you with some privacy) on a well-marked trail/path and be at Pulpit Rock at about 4 pm. At approximately 6:30 pm, we depart to Stavanger and your hotel of choice (own expense).
Please note that you will only have genuine Norwegian-born and bread guides on your trip. We do not use East European low-cost labour to maximize our profit. All guides used are acting non-biased and give advice based on their own experience.
