Bergen & the Southwestern Fjords


The closest campsite to Preikestolen is about 1km off the turn-off from the Rv13 on the way to Preikestolen Fjellstue. It's surrounded by forest, is well run and has good facilities, including a shop-restaurant. It's perfect for getting an early start on the crowds, although it's another 5km or so extra before you reach the trailhead.
