Preikestolen

The huge cliff Preikestolen is located in Norway, hanging over the sea lice of the Luse-fjord by more than 600 meters. This bay was created by nature about 10 thousand years ago. As a result of the retreat of glaciers, a large crack arose, after some time filled with water, where the depth reaches 422 meters. Prekestulen himself has a square flat peak of 625 m2.

Cliff Prekestulen was discovered in the 19th century, and since then it has not ceased to be a popular tourism destination. To this end, they arranged a special route along which several times a day the bus carries everyone who wants to taste this area.
