Wilderness Hiking & Camping 1000m above the Fjords, 4 days Backpacking Kjerag, Kjerag Boulder

Backpacking Camping Trip, Lysefjorden, Norway 4k, Hiking Kjerag/Kjerag Waterfall, Kjeragbolten, hiking above the fjord, crossing the mountains, recorded on iPhone and Gopro Hero 9 in 4k and 5k
This is a 4 day backpacking trip in May/June 2021, going from the Kjerag Parking and looping around the Kjerag Plateau. I find the most magnificent camp of my life, with the best views of the Kjerag Waterfall Firefall and Lysefjorden, similar to the Yosemite Firefall. I spend two days exploring the plateau and camp on top of the Kjerag Waterfall night two. On day three I head into the mountain and the snow and find an amazing campsite. Day 4 has me looping back through a gorgeous valley and returning to the main trail that I started on day one. I had sunshine the entire time and very little wind. Make sure to have a chat with the very friendly guy who runs Kjerag Tourist Info at the parking lot if you ever visit.

    Picture postcard perfection. The sunsets were awe inspiring. The waterfall/firefall was truly stunning. You had nerves of steel standing on the boulder wedged between the two monoliths a thousand feet up. It made me gasp. I'm glad you survived. Thank you Jarl for sharing your adventures.

Super sharp! Wonderfully colorful. But the soundscape is tremendous, especially the low frequencies. Then silence, heavy breathing, a sniffle, footsteps on granite sand, then a waterfall.

    Hello Norwegian Xplorer, i'm a new subscriber & oh gosh Wow! I don't even know where to begin here, but let me just start by saying this......Sir, You are totally underrated via you tube! Your videos, all of the ones i've thus far viewed, are just absolutely incredible, are jaw dropping, breath taking, stunning, etc;. The music you choose, is just so mesmerising, wonderful, sounds so good & is so relaxing to hear, when combined with your amazing & ethereal like footage. Wherever you go within Norway or beyond, you always capture the very best of every landscape, from dusk till dawn. Norway has insanely spectacular landscapes!!! I just love the fjords & their stillness, calm & exquisite beauty. These very deep waters, equate to a very still surface area, which to the complete novice, can appear very deceiving. Every time i watch this specific video, i'm just amazed, filled with excitement, intrigue & equally, i feel very relaxed. You help your viewers to relax, which is so nice. Your calm nature is refreshing & your absolutely outstanding cinematography, both in clarity, colour & the way you always capture the light & sun @ any time of day, words can do no justice to your work. You put obvious effort & energy into what you do & this really shows. I'm going to share your videos with some of my nearest & dearest & i'm sure when they view your videos, they'll never look back again. Thank you, for bringing us such high quality content & please keep bringing us more!

    Thank you for the stellar adventure! Felt like I was there. I can't decide which is better, the sunrise or sunsets. Summers must rock there, you can hike forever with days so long. Not sure if anyone else noticed the cool profile of a man's face in the shadow the cliff's made on the fjord. Around 48:10. Looking forward to more summer videos of Norway.😄👍

There is a fjord in Canada called Western Brook Pond in Gros Morne National Park in Newfoundland that looks remarkably like this one. A few years ago we visited and took a wonderful boat trip down the "pond".

    Hey Layne, thank you, sadly bears are nearly extinct in Norway, and not found here out west at all because of the policies of the Norwegian farmers and politicians that wants to, and have, terminated most predators in Norway, so you wont find many bears, wolves or bobcats in Norway. In Sweden they have a different policy, and there could be bears numbering hundreds or in the thousands there that sometimes roam into Norway. Norway sucks when it comes to protecting its nature and wildlife, sadly government funded sheep farming and fear has ruined so much😢 I bring the urscac out of convenience, its always my goto food bag.

    Very interesting Jarl. As I’m sure you know, we did the same thing to our large predators in the American West for many of the same reasons. Over time sentiment and policies changed and the bears and wolves have been restored in some places (like Yellowstone) to a degree. Maybe Norway will shift as well and your predators can be restored one day.

    Jari, I'd like to get on the Kjeragbolten when I hike Kjerag in July. You think jumping is easier than crawling. It may be easy for people with long legs. I am 4'7" and 88lbs with leg seam length 24". I climb peaks involving a lot of boulder scrambling. I am not scared of height or vertical cliffs. I wonder if I can get on the Kjeragbolten by crawling as the lady did in your video at 1:01:25 - 1:01:50. How can I train for this? any similar rock hopping in California (Sierra Nevada range) that I can train myself? Thanks.
