Can you please help me? I am driving around the Lofoten Islands and will be in Stavanger from Oct 4-6. I do not plan to rent a car for those days. I plan to do a day trip to Preikestolen on Oct 5. When I look at the booking sites for the day trip, they do not offer ferry + bus package after Oct 1. However, I see from many travel blogs that many hikers still visit Preikestolen in Oct and Nov. Can you please tell me which ferry terminal do I need to go to on Oct 5 to get to Preikestolen from Stavanger? Where can I find out the ferry schedule? Is the bus from Preikestolen still running? Where can I find out the bus schedule? Thank you so much for your help ?

The ferry from Stavanger to Preikestolen is called Tau. The ferry schedules can be found on the website in the screenshot. Yes, the landlord and the house are very nice. I looked at the ferry schedule on this website, and it does seem to only go until October 1st. But I remember reading in a travelogue that there was a ferry after October 1st, but no buses, so you had to take a taxi, which was very expensive. The ferry terminal for Preikestolen from Stavanger is called Fiskpiren. You can type this into Google Maps, and when you get to the terminal, you'll see a sign for Tau. Just ask about the ferry schedules when you get there. There must be ferries, although I imagine there might be fewer after October 1st, because I saw locals who live there taking the ferry to and from work, so I don't think there could be no ferries at all.

My friend and I arrived in Tromso yesterday. We drove from the airport to the hotel, went through the local tunnel, and accidentally drove through the parking lot. When we entered the parking lot, we took the parking card, and when we left, we inserted the parking card and credit card, but there was no display of deductions. Is this considered as driving through without parking, and we don't need to consider the parking fee problem ? Norway Q&A

Friends who rent a car, if you park on the roadside in various cities in Norway, many are free before 8:00 am and after 5:00 pm. But be sure to park in parking spaces or ask the hotel. Also, when parking in a garage, be sure not to park in private parking spaces, otherwise you may be fined ? Norway Q&A
