About This Tour

If you're visiting Stavanger and want to use one day for Pulpit Rock, this tour is built around the practical realities of that schedule.

TrollAdventure handles transport from Stavanger, trailhead timing and the hike itself. The route is well known, but conditions still change with rain, wind, temperature and the number of people on the trail. We plan the pace around the group rather than treating the hike like a fixed timetable.

John and Gert founded TrollAdventure, and our guides come from first-responder backgrounds. That shows up in the way we work: clear communication, realistic pacing and attention to weather, footing and the people in the group.

For cruise guests, ship arrival and departure times are part of the planning from the start. If the schedule changes, we adjust where possible and keep the day focused on getting you back with sensible margin.

  • Guided hike to Pulpit Rock / Preikestolen
  • Views over Lysefjord from the plateau
