Tour description

Combine a high-speed RIB safari with a guided hike up the Flørli stairs on a full-day trip into the Lysefjord.
Your adventure starts in Stavanger, where you'll board a RIB boat with an experienced captain to speed across the fjord. Along the way, you'll pass Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock), the Vagabond's Cave, and Whisky Waterfall (Hengjanefossen), keeping an eye out for sea eagles, seals, and porpoises.
The destination is Flørli, a fjord village accessible only by boat. Once home to a hydropower station, it's now known for the 4444-step wooden staircase (Flørlitrappene), the longest in the world. Join the guided hike up the 4444 steps or walk the shorter 750-step trail for panoramic views over the Lysefjord.
With around 4 hours to hike, you can join the guided hike up the full Flørli stairs or turn around and spend the remaining time visiting the fjord café, learning about the village's industrial history, or simply enjoying the surroundings.
