Key Points from the Discussion

Pulpit Rock is an excellent destination for outdoor enthusiasts, involving an almost 8km round-trip hike with varied terrain, including steep sections and well-constructed rock stairs.
The location gained international recognition as a filming site for the 2017 movie 'Mission Impossible: Fallout,' where it served as a dramatic backdrop for key action sequences.
While some might bring a luxury sport watch like a Rolex Explorer II for the journey, a dedicated sport watch for tracking pulse and activity is often preferred for the actual hike.
The sheer height and exposure of Pulpit Rock can be daunting, with some contributors expressing a strong reluctance to stand on the cliff's edge.

Breathtaking. I was supposed to be summer vacationing in Norway right now, but then COVID-19 happened.

Alas, one can only hope for next summer
