Further description

Flørli, which has been inhabited on and off since at least the seventeenth century, is beautifully located amidst 1000-meter-high mountains along the southern shore of the Lysefjord. In 1916, construction began on a hydro-electric power plant, which, from 1918 until 1950, supplied electricity to the city of Stavanger. At its peak (1917), 142 people were employed at the plant; quite an impressive number considering that only 13 permanent residences were ever built near the site.

This is a demanding 3-hour, 3.2 km (round-trip) climb/hike with a total ascent of just over 750 meters.

Tour Plan

Meet our captain at the pier next to the fishmarket (Fisketorget), the address is Strandkaien 37. Gather up togheter with the other passengers and wait for further instructions. Have your ticket ready. You will get dressed up in comfortable, waterproof gear and lifejackets for your safety. After a quick safety brief, you will enter the boat and find a soft, comfy seat to sit on. We have waterproof bags for your luggage and personal belongings. You can hold your camera ready during the ride or put your mobile phone in one of the pockets in the suit.

Before we depart from Stavanger, we will suit you up in floating suits and life jackets. A safety brief will also be held by the captain. Once everybody is ready, we take a seat in the boat and are ready to go!

It takes about an hour to get to Flørli from Stavanger. On the way we stop at a couple of beautiful spots in the fjord to take some pictures.

We take of all the gear and start moving towards the stairs. There is a café at Flørli, so you can get more food/water if you need. There is also toilets here. The captain will explain the trail for you and tell a little about the place.

The hike itself is not more than 1,6 kilometres, but it is a 750 meters incline to the top. Starting slow is key to not get exhausted right away. The first part is often the toughest!

You can chose to take the lunch break half way up, or on the top. The view is absolutly amazing!

On the way down you do not walk in the stairs. You hike over the mountain and follow a trail down to Flørli. On your way down you will cross a suspension bridge and walk through an exotic forrest.

Once you are back down at Flørli you could go for a refreshing swim in the fjord, enjoy some food at the café or have a walk in the old hydropower plant.

The way back home will be a non-stop ride with RIB. You will be back in Stavanger at 16:00
