Lysefjord

Hiking the Lysefjord was a proper adventure, you will hike & kayak some of Norway’s most breathtaking trails and views. From the famous Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock) sticking out over the fjord to the adrenaline pumping Kjerag, where you will see the legendary Kjeragbolten boulder, every hike feels like something out of a postcard. We also explored the lesser known Fantapytten trail, a real hidden gem. It’s not just about hiking, we took to the water too, kayaking on the fjord itself for a whole new perspective. Whether you’re chasing those epic Instagram viewpoints or just soaking up the sheer scale of the landscape, the Lysefjord delivers is an unbelievable place to visit.
