We took the Boreal bus tour that takes you directly to the trail base ant takes about 50 minutes each way. The trail is well maintained and offers beautiful views of the mountains and Fjiords around the area. It took us about 4 hours to hike round trip with some breaks in between but not a lot of extra time for a picnic or longer breaks. It gets a little crowded on the top and there is a huge line for the iconic top of the rock photo, but it was very organized . Cannot recommend it enough!

We stopped in Stavanger as part of a cruise and decided to venture out of the city to Pulpit Rock…read more We took a bus from Stavanger (booked in advance) to the Pulpit Rock trailhead, about a 1 hour drive. The hike was about 3 hours round trip, mostly uphill on the way there and downhill on the way back. The views at the top of the trail are spectacular. I highly recommend visiting here and doing the hike if you're able to - it's a beautiful spot to visit.

Many statues to admire in the area. Good place for a leisurely stroll. Saw lots of folks feeding the ducks and pigeons. Others were chatting or lounging on benches. Good place to chillax.

I visited Sandvedparken on my first visit to Norway and loved it so we made a point to go again and…read moresee the beautiful fall colors this time around. A great place to leisurely walk and see the various ponds with the ducks, the displays scattered among the route from the Astronomy Center, and just be in a very serene environment. We went on a Sunday and it was pretty crowded with families and joggers. There are lots of places for people to stop and enjoy the view. Tons of ducks that really want to be bed. Places for children to play with some cool looking playground set ups. You can go off the path and end up close to a train station and close to a Coop store. We went to the end, bought some lunch and then ate at a scenic picnic table. Interestingly, the ducks were not interested at all in the salty fries we had but loved the bread some children were feeding them. Parks are very important in Norway and this was one of the nicest we visited on either trip. We plan to visit again the next time we're in the area and I really recommend it!

Very nice soccer stadium. Newly built with large walk ways, a big screen, and great seats. I've…read morebeen twice and no matter where I've sat in the stadium I've had a good view of the field. Lots of fans attend and they are pretty enthusiastic for their home team! Plenty of parking. It gets quite cold near the end of the season so be sure to dress warmly. Beer and the usual fare is sold on the concourse. I think it's a great, affordable place to take in a game.
