Be shown the best viewpoints and how to capture memorable photos by your guides. Begin your journey in the early-morning when your professional guide picks you up at your preferred meeting place within Stavanger. While being transported to the trail-head, you’ll be able to catch glimpses of some of Norway’s stunning landscapes. Drive for about 3-hours toward the Eagle’s Nest trail-head. Before the crowds of tourists have begun to arrive, you’ll be well on your way up to the Kjerag boulder. During the 2.5-hour hike to the boulder, you’ll encounter 3 periods of steep climbing interspersed with 2 shallow valleys. The hike takes you through landscapes that are a bit technical in some places. Therefore, you might not want this to be your first experience on a mountain.

Cliff-side, you’ll have plenty of time to rest and enjoy your packed lunch. If you’re among the brave, you’ll have the opportunity to stand atop the Kjerag boulder.

After the lunch break, your guide will lead you back down to the Eagle’s Nest, which takes approximately 3-hours. This experience will prove to be a rewarding one with a physically demanding 6-hour hike time, a 12 kilometer hike, and a total ascent of 800-meters.
