- Private Kjeragbolten Hike with a Local GuideYour own guide and electric car from your Stavanger hotel, Kjerag at your pace, crampons and parking included.
- Preikestolen and Kjerag in Two DaysPulpit Rock and a cruise, a night in Lysebotn with dinner, then Kjerag fresh. Both cliffs, one overnight, max 8 people.
- Preikestolen Hike with a Local GuidePulpit Rock with a guide, lunch and a bus from the cruise terminal. A shorter, easier cliff than Kjerag, not Kjerag itself.
- Flørli 4444: RIB Boat and Stair HikeA RIB to a roadless village and 4,444 wooden steps up the fjord wall. A tough leg day; it stops well short of Kjerag.
- Lysefjord and Pulpit Rock RIB Boat TourTwo fast hours to Pulpit Rock and Hengjanefossen in a flotation suit. It turns back long before Kjerag.
- Guided Kayaking in the LysefjordThree quiet hours in a kayak under the Lysefjord walls from Dørvika beach. Kit and food included; it stays in the outer fjord.
- Electric Fjord Cruise to the LysefjordA rest day on a quiet electric catamaran: Pulpit Rock from below and Hengjanefossen. It never gets near Kjerag.
