Preikestolen hike with Sara and some mates .... was fucking epdawg yo ! ;)

Hey hey hey all my hiking mates I hope you get the chance to hike up this mountain called Preikestolen on the west coast of Norway and see what we saw because it is truly specfuckingtacular !

So on the weekend Sara and I travelled to Stavanger which is on the bottom west coast of Norway and holy fuck what a Place ! It is in amongst all the epic fjords and there are many islands intermingled in between huge mountains and the fjords. We met a mate of ours there and we went on this hike up this mountain to come to a place called Preikestolen and it was god damn awesome ! Its basically a huge rock hanging off the side of a mountain and its 604m STRAIGHT DOWN ! This is a picture of me and Sara sitting near the edge ... :) Note that I said NEAR the edge because I was literally shitting in my pants .... its also pretty damn windy up there and that sure doesnt help ;)

 

 

Tell ya what else doesnt help was when there was this section where you had to walk around the side of the mountain and there was a ledge about 2m wide and I happened to run into a bunch of fucking dick head teenagers and they were literally JUMPING off fucking rocks onto this 2m ledge right infront of me !!! I was absolutely shitting myself I just felt like punching them in the head and screaming are you fucking stupid ! If you slip and fall you take me and yourself over a 604m ledge and there aint no coming back from that ! Aaaaanyways other than that it was really really good ! I mean it was amazing to be up there but also pretty damn shit scary ... I have done bungy jumping and skydiving but this was probably scarier because there is no safety harness. We were sitting about 1.5 metres from the edge and I thought that was pretty good haha ... but a lot of people actually sit on the edge with their legs dangling over and some people were also taking jumping photos right where we were sitting in the above photo .... so many people are just either insane or just stupid ... or both. Here is a photo of me looking out from the edge in what the Scandos Call the "meditation photo". Yes I know im going bald , no I dont give a shit haha , not much you can do about that ! ;)

 

 



 

Anyways it was a bloody good day and was a pretty hard hike , about 2 hours to get up and 2 hours down and it was a lot of uphill sections , which quickly reminded me how unfit I have actually become haha , but hey with a few (many) stops on the way we made it to the top and it was more than worth it ... what a bloody awesome place !!! This last photo is just a group photo of our "crew" , it was Sara , our Norwegian mate Chris and his Norwegian mate Bjorn ( very Scandanavian name right there haha) and of course myself , when we got to the top we had a couple of beers and a hotdog (Scandanavians bloody LOVE their hotdogs and there one time BBQ`S).

Look how Close Sara got to the edge!! I was not even close to that and I was shitting myself haha

This is a pic of us men having a beer at the top ... much deserved and much enjoyed !! ;)

I hope that anyone Reading this sees how amazing this is and it will inspire you to get out and see the world because its god damn fucking awesome ... and the best part is that its always FREE !!! Get onto it ! :)

That is all, Peace out , Catch ;)
