Full day hiking to Gaustatoppen
Breakfast at your hotel.
Today, we are going to hike – you may see one sixth of Norway’s territory from its top on a clear, sunny day. The hike is not strenuous and takes about 2 hours one way. To reach to the top of Gaustatoppen, we will use Gaustabanen, a funicular way that takes you to the top of the mountain. After reaching the top, you will have enough time to shoot photos and enjoy a coffee in a café, which is conveniently located there. Then, we will have to start descending the mountain by following a tourist trail. There is also an option of going down by the funicular way, which costs 100 NOK and allows you to spend more time at the top. Once we have descended the mountain, we will start our way to the Pulpit Rock Lodge. Stay overnight at Preikestolen Fjellstove.
