Monafossen viewpoint / first lake (Refsvatnet) A natural rest stop beside the first lake on the trail, offering early views across the surrounding hills. Your guide will share what to expect ahead and point out local flora along the waterside path

The Sherpa Steps A section of the trail restored and built by Nepalese Sherpa craftsmen — the same skills used on Himalayan trekking routes. Your guide explains the conservation story behind why Norway brought Sherpas to Rogaland to protect the mountain path

Ridge viewpoint (before the final approach) The first open ridge view of the Lysefjord appears here — a natural photo stop and a preview of what’s coming. On clear days you can see deep into the fjord from this point

Stand on one of Norway’s most iconic viewpoints — a flat cliff edge rising 604 metres above the Lysefjord. Your guide has lead you along the 4km trail, sharing the geology, local history, and stories of the fjord below. The reward at the top is one of the most dramatic panoramas in Scandinavia
