The three most amazing stones in Norway: Pulpit Stone, Miracle Stone, and Devil’s Tongue.

These magical stones, created naturally on high mountain cliffs, attract countless people to challenge them every year. Although standing on the stones will make your legs shake and your heart beat, the scenery you see in front of you is extremely shocking, and Summer is the last season to challenge these magical stones.

1. "Pulpit Stone" is located in the middle of the Lysefjord in southern Norway, near the city of Stavanger. It is a naturally formed boulder that towers 600 meters above the Lysefjord. Looking from the bottom up, the cliff is almost vertical at 90 degrees to the sea level, which is breathtaking! When standing on the Pulpit Rock, you may be able to have a beautiful view of the Lysefjord, but the strong wind blowing on the Lysefjord can even make people feel dizzy or make their legs weak. It is known as "the symbol of the brave and a forbidden place for people with acrophobia!"

2. In the southwest of Norway, there is a famous mountain called Kjerag Mountain, because it is close to a beautiful bay. -Lysefjord, with thousands of towering rocks on both sides, forms many spectacular landscapes, attracting tourists from all over the world. Among them, there is a rock of only 5 cubic meters called "Shelagbottom Stone". , and people prefer to call it the "miracle stone"

This stone is located on the top of the mountain, like a wedge, suspended between the huge rock walls of the two fjords. In mid-air, about 1,000 meters from the bottom of the valley, it forms a natural balanced rock structure, which is rare in the world.

3. The Devil's Tongue, one of the three strange stones, I wanted to say something when I saw the name, it's not. All three big rocks are called stones, and this one is called a tongue. The "Devil's Tongue" is a famous cliff attraction in Norway. It is composed of a huge rock horizontally extending from the main mountain, about 700 meters above the Ringedalsvatnet Lake. , like a long tongue.

The Devil's Tongue is estimated to have been formed at the end of the Ice Age and has a history of about 10,000 years. As the glaciers broke off, large chunks of the mountain also broke off. The fracture has created this beautiful and strange rock. Here, you can enjoy the mist, lakes and mountains, overlooking the scenic fjord, which is spectacular.
