If you;re headed to Norway my fellow travelers, may I just say that I believe Preikestolen is an absolute must see. It will take your breath away, and it is well worth the trip.

Lovely pictures, grew up nearby. We are happy that so many people like it, in the summer maybe too many.

Visited this region in June with my friend. An amazing week spent on our bikes, living out our rucksacks and taking in this fine country. Preikestolen and Kjeragbolten had been on my bucket list for a while so was great to finally get to see them.

Here's a video of my trip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YP3yak1L_5g

when I saw it, as I stated, I was left slack jawed and without words. It is magical. Glad you got to see it man

Preikestolen, if you don;t enjoy, you should just submit yourself to the looney bin. I couldn't imagine

Preikestolen had that much of an impact on me I got a friend to draw up a design around it and got it tattooed on my leg. YOLO as they say. Absolutely. Love. Norway.

Quite impressive, yes. Last year my daughter went there with her scouts troop, part of the 2013 Stavanger jamboree.

Eat strawberries. Watch sunset. Talk, kiss and dance. And always remember to bring dry socks.
