Hiking to "The Troll's Tongue" with my Daughter.
- Date:

- 8:00h
- Distance:
- 20.4km
My daughter and I were on our way from the city of Stavanger to the town of Ålesund, both on the west coast of Norway. As we had been planning our drive northwards, we had decided to do some mountain trekking along the route. On the first day of our trip we had stopped by the village of Jøssang, in order to hike to Preiekstolen [i.e. "The Pulpit Rock"]. On the second day of our trip, we wanted to go trekking to Trolltunga, in English "The Troll's Tounge". And so we did.

I had previously visited The Pulpit Rock [Norwegian: Preikestolen] on one occasion, i.e. on August 8th 2015, when I made this trek with my youngest son. On the current occasion, however, I had been to the city of Stavanger to help my oldest daughter move from one apartment to another, and as we were heading north along the coast of Norway by car, we decided to stop a couple of places and do some mountain climbing on our way. From Stavanger there's two ways to get to the Pulpit Rock: You either drive via Sandnes to Lauvvika , where a ferry will take you across the fjord Høgsfjorden . Or: You take the ferry from Stavanger to Tau across the fjord Hidlefjorden, from where you drive to Jøssang, where you take a tiny road [i.e. road #4642] to lake Revsvatnet , where Preikestolhytta [i.e. The Pulpit >>>
