Kjerag, one of the most famous plateaus in Norway, is visited by thousands of tourists every year. The most popular is the Lieserfjorden peak. It is here that the giant boulder Kjeragbolten is located, which is called the most dangerous stone in the world.
By itself, the stone block would not represent any interest in its appearance. The increased attention provided her with location. Miraculously holding between two sheer cliffs, Kjeragbolten, in the literal sense of the word, hung over the abyss.
The most famous boulder in the world
Apparently, a giant cobblestone fell off a long time ago, flying down. But he did not happen to be at the bottom of the abyss. The block, firmly entrenched between twenty rocks, hangs over the abyss to this day.
Thousands of tourists strive to see this unusual sight with their own eyes. For some, it is not enough just to look at a stone and go up to it and come up to it. For them, the main task is to be directly on the boulder.
In the pictures, people both stand on Kjeragbolten and sit on it. All pictures look fantastic. But the lump looks best from the facade. The approach, on the other hand, is flatter, which is not much, but still diminishes the impression made by the stone.
Is it dangerous or not
Only photographs help to understand the true dimensions of the boulder and the instability of its position. One gets the impression that the slightest movement of air is enough for a stone shell to fall into the abyss from almost a thousand meters in height. But the years go by, and the boulder still remains in the same place.
It is called the most dangerous stone in the world, but this title misleads only those who hear about this miracle for the first time. During the entire existence of the unusual bridge, not a single person has fallen from it, although people make very risky experiments. Yes, and down the lump itself is in no hurry.
But all this does not mean that you can safely stand on Kjeragbolten and stand on it, posing for a while. In the mountains of Norway, like any other, there are often strong gusts of wind. Therefore, without a good ability to stand firmly on your feet in any conditions, you should not risk it. It is unlikely that any of the travelers would want to be the first.
Purpose of the trip
You will have to get to Lieserfjorden by a mountain trail for several hours. But this method of movement does not scare anyone: the reward is the most dangerous stone in the world. And the "bonus" is that the top offers a stunning view of the nearby mountains, as well as the opportunity to sit on Kjeragbolten.
The Kjerag plateau is popular not only among tourists, but also among extreme sportsmen. Every year, at least 2,000 base jumpers jump to the peaks. The local mountains are almost ideal for jumping, and therefore such a demand among adrenaline lovers is fully justified.
I like it on Kjerag and climbers. There are many routes of any complexity. They are suitable for both beginners and experienced climbers.
The easiest way to get to the plateau is to get here with a guided tour. The guide will lead you along the most fascinating routes, introduce you to the most picturesque places. But such trips require appropriate preparation, because you will have to walk for several hours.
