The Pilgrim's Chair

A place for peace, views and reflection

Along the historic Kystpilegrimsleia in Egersund you will find the Pilgrim's Chair – a unique resting place that invites you to slow down and take in the silence of nature. With beautiful views of the characteristic coastal landscape, the chair is more than just a place to sit; it is a symbol of the journey, reflection and community that the pilgrimage tradition represents.

The Pilgrim's Chair is located along one of Norway's most exciting pilgrimage routes. The coastal pilgrimage route starts in Egersund and extends all the way to Nidaros in Trondheim. For centuries, people have walked these paths in search of new experiences, inner peace and closeness to nature.

For today's visitors, Pilgrimsstolen is a natural stopping point – whether you are a pilgrim, hiker, local resident or tourist. Here you can rest your feet, enjoy the view and let your mind wander while the sea, sky and landscape create a setting for moments of calm and presence.

A visit to the Pilgrim's Chair can be combined with a walk along the Coastal Pilgrim's Path, exploring Egersund's cultural history, or trips to other exciting attractions in the area. The chair reminds us of the value of stopping along the way – and that the journey itself is often as important as the destination.

Welcome to the Pilgrim's Chair in Egersund – a place where nature, history and reflection meet.
