A packed lunch from a Stavanger kitchen is included, along with canoe kit, guiding and city pickup. 📌 Key Details Duration: Around 9 hours Minimum age: 8 years Activities: Canoeing and hiking Lunch: Packed lunch included 🥾 What to Expect Morning pickup in Stavanger includes a stop to collect packed lunches before you reach Preikestolen Basecamp, where life vests and paddles wait at the lakeshore and your guide coaches everyone through a short canoe safety briefing before you cross Revsvatnet. You land on the far bank and step onto a hidden trail that winds through forest, bog and open hillside at a pace that leaves room for photos, water breaks and the odd joke while the main tourist convoy is somewhere else entirely. When you reach Preikestolen the fjord view feels earned after paddle and climb, and you eat your packed lunch on the trail before descending with your guide and riding back to Stavanger with tired arms and happy legs. The itinerary below shows how pickup, paddling and the secret path fit together across the day. 📍 Location Revsvatnet lies close to the Preikestolen hiking area, linking lake paddling with the plateau walk in one circular day from Stavanger. The landscape shifts from quiet water to alpine views in a single journey, which is why this route feels so different from the standard car-park approach. Pickup uses city centre hotels and agreed meeting points confirmed at booking, with the same area used for drop-off after a long day on the water and the mountain. ⚠️ Prerequisites Minimum age eight years with moderate fitness for paddling and a three hour uphill hike. You should be comfortable sitting in a canoe and walking uneven ground in hiking boots with grip. Provide dietary restrictions when you book for the packed lunch. Bring waterproofs and spare layers as for any Norwegian mountain day, because weather can change quickly once you leave the lakeshore. 🌟 Why Choose Us Combining paddle and hike needs guides who are happy switching hats from canoe coach to mountain leader in one day, and this crew does both without making either half feel rushed. You get proper instruction on the lake and the same calm leadership on the climb. The hidden trail is genuinely quiet because it is not on the standard tourist map, so your phot… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Professional English-speaking guide for hiking and paddling Canoe, paddles and life vest on Revsvatnet Packed lunch from a local Stavanger kitchen Pickup and drop-off in Stavanger city centre ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point if you are outside the included Stavanger pickup area Personal hiking clothing and boots Personal travel insurance Snacks and drinks not listed as included on your booking ### Kit list Sturdy hiking boots or shoes with good grip Waterproof jacket and trousers At least 1 litre of water Lunch and snacks unless your trip includes a meal Small day pack (15 to 35 litres) Warm layers and hat depending on season ## FAQs ### Is pickup from Stavanger included? Collection and return drop-off in Stavanger city centre are included on this departure when you book through the connected checkout. Confirm your hotel name and a reachable mobile number after reserving so drivers can find you at the agreed time on the morning of the trip. ### What happens if the weather is poor? Mountain trips may be shortened, rerouted or rescheduled when wind, ice, fog or heavy rain makes exposed sections unsafe for the group. Your guide monitors conditions on the day and explains the safest option. Waterproof layers and spare warm clothing are essential in fjord terrain even in summer. ### What should I wear on the trail? Wear broken-in hiking boots with ankle support and soles that grip wet rock and mud. Synthetic or wool layers work better than cotton when you heat up on climbs and cool down on ridges. Pack a waterproof shell and trousers, gloves and a hat in cooler months, and protect your phone in a dry bag inside your pack. ### Do I need travel insurance? We recommend insurance that covers outdoor activities and any medical costs abroad, including helicopter rescue where applicable in remote Norwegian terrain. Check that your policy matches the activities on your booking and keep emergency contact details accessible during the hike. ### How do group sizes work? Departures are capped at a small maximum so the guide can coach technique, manage pace and keep the day personal rather than feeling like a large coach tour. If you travel solo you may share the vehicle with other guests booked on the same date, but on-trail leadership stays with your qualified guide throughout. ### Can I join as a solo traveller? Solo bookings are welcome and you will share transport with other guests on the same departure when seats are available. On the trail the guide still leads one cohesive group and adjusts pace so nobody is left behind on the uphill or downhill sections. ### Are tips expected for guides? Tipping is optional in Norway and never required for your guide or driver to deliver a professional day on the mountain. If you wish to thank the team for exceptional service, a modest cash tip or a positive review after the trip is always appreciated. ### What language is the tour led in? Guiding on these hikes is in English so international guests can follow safety briefings and ask questions throughout the day. If your group needs clarification on local place names or folklore, guides are happy to explain during rest stops on the trail. ### Do I need canoe experience? No previous paddling is required because your guide teaches basic strokes, balance and safety on the lake before the short crossing to the trailhead. Life vests are provided for every guest, and the lake is usually calm in normal conditions, though your guide may adjust plans if wind picks up. ### Is lunch provided? A packed lunch from Skafferiet kitchen is included in the price; share dietary needs when you book so the kitchen can prepare. Bring additional snacks and at least one litre of water per person for the long hiking section after paddling because appetite and thirst increase on the climb to Preikestolen. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/ad494f11-8f7b-4012-bb21-bb584a2903a2-1-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
