Flørli 4444 Steps
Flørlitrappene
A 4,444-step wooden staircase built along an old hydropower pressure pipeline. It climbs about 740 m and is reputed to be one of the world's longest wooden staircases.
Flørli is a small village on the north shore of Lysefjord with no road access. Beside the pressure pipeline of a hydropower station built in 1916 runs a wooden maintenance staircase of 4,444 steps. It climbs about 740 m vertically and is considered one of the world's longest wooden staircases. The climb takes about 1.5 to 2.5 hours. You can loop back to the village along the mountain path, or continue to a mountain lake, for a 3 to 4 hour round trip with superb fjord views. The village can only be reached by Lysefjord ferry or fast boat, which run infrequently, so plan around your return time. The old power station in the village houses a café and a youth hostel.
