Stavanger and the Pulpit Rock, Stavanger, Norway
From Bergen we drove to Stavanger. In another post I will explain you our route and everything related to traveling by car in Norway. Today I will show you all you need to visit Stavanger and the Pulpit (Preikestolen), a marvel of nature, easily accessible.
Desde Bergen fuimos en coche a Stavanger. En otro post os contaré la ruta que hicimos y todo lo referente a viajar en coche por Noruega. Hoy os contaré lo que no os podéis perder de Stavanger y todo sobre el Púlpito (Preikestolen), una auténtica maravilla de la naturaleza de muy fácil acceso.
We stayed at a farm in Ålgård. The accommodation is perfect and I totally recommendable if you go by car! We hesitated a lot about where to stay, mainly because we had planned to visit the Pulpit Rock, Stavanger and Kjeragbolten on a weekend and not at highest season so, ferries linking the Pulpit Rock with Kjeragbolten were very few. So, we needed to go by car and Ålgård is located at an intermediate point to go to all these sites (30' to Stavanger, 1h15' to the Pulpit Rock and 2 hours to the Kjeragbolten). At the end, we couldn't go to the Kjeragbolten because of the weather.
Nos alojamos en una granja en Ålgård. El alojamiento es de diez y no puedo por menos que recomendarlo! Por supuesto, únicamente si vais con coche, si no es demasiado complicado. Dudamos bastante sobre donde alojarnos, principalmente porque teníamos pensado visitar el Púlpito, Stavanger y el Pedrolo (Kjeragbolten) en fin de semana y en unas fechas en las que ya no es temporada alta, y los ferris que unen el Púlpito con el Pedrolo son muy escasos. Es decir, teníamos que ir en coche y Algard está situado en un punto intermedio para ir a todos estos sitios (30' de Stavanger, 1h15' al Púlpito y 2h al Pedrolo). Finalmente, debido al tiempo, tuvimos que prescindir de ir al Pedrolo. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
