Hey! Maybe my answer will be a little bit delaid but still. It depends on your preferences of hike difficulty and on what you actually want to experience. Kjerag is more challanging than Pulpit Rock and both provide great vews. At the same time Kjerag is less crowded but takes more time to get to from Stavanger (might be a reasonable thing to consider if you`ll be moving to Odda after that). However, whatever option you choose you`ll get gorgeous views of Lysefjord. Hope I could help a liitle bit. Have a great hike!!!

Mate, I think that you can make it, even with surgery. It might just take more time, so begin your hike early in the morning. Do you still feel some pain? Point is that the whole Kjerag path is split in three part. The first one is the worst, with challenging slippery slopes, no steps (proper shoes). They put chains (summer time) along the path to make hikers help with it. Don’t go with bad weather or ice, this is very important, the ice. It will make you detour from the path, if you don’t use crampon. Don’t loose the red signs on the rocks if you’re not good with bearings.

There are some challenging spots where you have to hang onto a chain to pull yourself up the vertical rock faces. There are steep areas and up and down a lot. The trail goes along the edge of high cliffs in spots. The trail is easy to follow as there are hordes of people but it is not an easy climb and if you are nervous with heights it could be daunting. It took us about five or six hours round trip with a stop for lunch and photos on kjeragbolten. The weather was perfect, so factor that in. Start out early in the day and be prepared for any type of weather. I’m a female age 57 and did it last summer with my 26 year old daughter. I’m fairly fit but didn’t do any special training. Walking poles came in handy.

Hi yolanda, I just did the three hikes from June 10th to the 13th one hike each day with one day of camping in between. For Kjerag I will say is a though hike but not as long, you have to go up and down and there are chains to assist I do not believe you need a guide the trAils are marked and there is a lot of people walking through them so you will not get lost. For preikestolen we had a guide because we had purchased a Kayak trip which included the hike but honestly you do not need to spend the extra money on guides, for preikestolen is was a little shorter than kjerag and much easier. And for the best one Trolltunga it took us 8 hours to go back and forth but it is a difficult hike because of the length. I do recommend you park at the upper parking lot so you don’t have to hike up 3 km through a road. The views are incredible. Good luck hope you enjoy Norway as i am now
