===Outdoor activities=== There are not many outdoor activities in Stavanger itself, however, splendid opportunities are nearby in adjacent municipalities: [[Lysefjorden]] is particularly popular for hiking.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Topping |first=Celia |date=2015-07-25 |title=Hanging with rock stars: affordable hikes in western Norway |url=http://www.theguardian.com/travel/2015/jul/25/norway-hiking-walking-affordable-bus-stavanger |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210614033008/https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2015/jul/25/norway-hiking-walking-affordable-bus-stavanger |archive-date=14 June 2021 |access-date=2021-02-19 |website=The Guardian |language=en}}</ref> Tourists typically visit places like [[Preikestolen]] (aka the Pulpit Rock), and [[Kjeragbolten]]. [[Preikestolen]] is a massive rock overhanging the fjord (604 metres below). [[Kjeragbolten]] is a rock wedged in the cliff approximately 1,000 metres above the fjord. The straight fall 1,000 metres down to the fjord makes [[Kjerag]] a very popular location for [[BASE jumping]]. Not too far from Stavanger, alpine centers are available for skiers and snowboarders throughout the winter season. <ref>{{Cite web |title=basekjerag.com |url=http://www.basekjerag.com/rogaland/stavanger/svg_base.nsf/id/2CC0E47A17AB6173C1256E150002B1F9?OpenDocument%7ctitle=basekjerag.com%7cwork=basekjerag.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220218191221/http://www.basekjerag.com/rogaland/stavanger/svg_base.nsf/id/2CC0E47A17AB6173C1256E150002B1F9?OpenDocument%7ctitle=basekjerag.com%7cwork=basekjerag.com |archive-date=18 February 2022}}</ref> Along the coast south of Stavanger there are a number of large, sandy beaches, including at Sola, within close reach from the city.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Beaches of Rogaland in west Norway β Stavanger Travel |url=http://www.stavangertravel.com/welcome/beaches.cfm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180826183039/http://www.stavangertravel.com/welcome/beaches.cfm |archive-date=26 August 2018 |access-date=26 August 2018 |website=www.stavangertravel.com}}</ref>
