We the continue our journey onto one of Norways biggest draws: Prekestolen, otherwise known as the Peachers Pulpit and which is is a massive cliff, 604 metres (1982 feet) above Lysefjorden, opposite the Kjerag plateau, in Forsand. We recommend bringing comfortable shoes for the hike up to Prekestolen. Having taken in the breathtaking views of the fjords below, we return back to Stavanger.

Giving that Stavanger is predominantly a city that lives off petrol, a visit to the Petrol Museum also comes highly recommended. Dinner included.
