Gamlebyen i Stavanger
Experience the historic area of Stavanger, also known as the 'Old Town', which definitely is worth a visit. Experience Europe's best-preserved wooden house constructions spread over approx. 170 white wooden buildings. Take the tour around the Old Town on a Sunday morning, as it is the best time to enjoy the beautiful houses while the area is not too busy.
Fjord cruise on Lysefjorden - Stavanger city centre
No matter what time of year you choose to visit Stavanger, there will always be the opportunity to enjoy a fjord cruise on the Lysefjorden and experience the waterfall, the many idyllic islands and the abundant and rugged scenery that Norway has to offer, and of course the Pulpit.
Departure is from Skagenkaien in Stavanger and the trip takes about 3 hours.
Skagenkaien in Stavanger
´Lysløypa´ in Stavanger may not be as well known as ´Bryggen´ in Bergen, but the beautiful houses along the illuminated Skagenkaj in Stavanger are a sight to behold at dusk and there's guaranteed to be a drink too.
Many of the buildings used to be stalls, but now house restaurants and nightclubs. This is where revellers gather in the evenings, especially when the weather gods are kind, but as we all know, the weather rarely stops a good party, although it can get pretty cold in winter, but then you'll need to wear some suitably warm clothes.
Stavanger Cathedral
Stavanger's distinguished cathedral is one of the best preserved buildings from the Middle Ages. Located in a northern part of the idyllic Breiavatnet in Stavanger, the church certainly deserves a visit.
The cathedral hosts a number of concerts and exciting events, so be sure to check the church's calendar of activities to see if there's anything exciting going on right now.
Stavanger
Stavanger is one of Norway's most populous municipalities with over 100,000 inhabitants. Stavanger's city centre doesn't seem very big, but the advantages are that it's easy to get around on foot and therefore an excellent opportunity to enjoy the city's sights from street level. The central shopping street is set in an area surrounded by older wooden buildings with narrow and charming alleyways, take a trip past Kirkegata and see if you can squeeze some shopping into an otherwise tight schedule.
Since the North Sea's first oil field was discovered in 1969, Stavanger has been a cultural capital, it also became a university town and has also attracted a lot of international workers. In other words, Stavanger has transformed itself into an exciting city with a wealth of cultural experiences and a vibrant nightlife.
Preikestolen
Preikestolen is the most visited attraction in Rogaland and the mountain plateau has been named the world's most beautiful viewpoints by Lonely Planet. It towers a full 604 meters above the Lysefjorden and people from all over the world enjoy the nature experiences, selfies and varying footwear.
Sola beach
Sola beach is a shallow beach with plenty of sun during the summer. It is nature's very own water park and is great for children. All year round, visitors can wade into the water and take a romantic stroll along the silky beach. As soon as the wind starts, the surfers come pouring in, and with good reason, the area is great all year round.
Christmas market in Stavanger
Head to Stavanger for the Christmas holidays and visit the city's many cosy Christmas markets, all of which are sure to get any visitor in the Christmas spirit, whatever their age. Some markets last a few days, while others run from the end of November right through to Christmas. One of the cosiest markets is located in Stavanger's Old Town and usually takes place on the first Sunday in December. Here, the historic backdrop and the many cosy art shops, workshops, cafés and museums are accompanied by a wonderful Christmas atmosphere, and you're sure to find inspiration for your Christmas gifts.
Just outside Stavanger you'll find Kongeparken, the largest amusement park in south-east Norway, and here too there will be a Christmas market - one the kids will love if you're bringing the family on holiday. The whole of Kongeparken is transformed into a fairytale kingdom of Christmas elves, twinkling lights, Christmas workshops, mulled wine, music, a chocolate factory, Christmas shows and lots of exciting activities.
Find a cheap hotel in Stavanger and go with Risskov on a great Christmas holiday!
