City guide

Stavanger

Stavanger is Norway's oil-industry hub on the southwest coast, its old town Gamle Stavanger a hillside of white wooden houses among Northern Europe's largest such collections. It is also the main gateway for boat trips into Lysefjord, including the cliff-top hike to Preikestolen (Pulpit Rock).
