Predikstolen Viewpoint (Getsvedjeberget) — what to expect (car‑light day)

Car-light setup: Grab&Go bike + optional daypack.

Getsvedjeberget is one of the most photographed viewpoints in the High Coast — and the panorama from Predikstolen really is special.

A small note from a basecamp host, just so the experience stays enjoyable: the final segment is short, but steep and a bit technical — both on the way up and on the way down. It’s doable for many people, but it’s not the same kind of trail as a flat forest walk.

🇸🇪 Swedish summary at the end (kort på svenska).

Car‑light setup (simple) - If you want to keep the day smooth and hands‑free, our go‑to setup is:

bike → trail start → hike → optional hammock pause → bike back.

Easy ride: roads + easy gravel.

Grab&Go can set you up with a bike + daypack (and an optional hammock kit) at Docksta marina in minutes.

What “short” means here

On the High Coast Trail 3Peaks route, the climb is described as “only 800 meters” — but steep. That’s a great summary: brief, but it asks for attention and a steady pace. Source

A simple way to enjoy it

  • Take it slow on the steep parts (no rush)

  • Shoes with good grip make a big difference

  • If it’s wet or windy, be extra cautious near the viewpoint

  • The descent is where people often feel it in the knees — go carefully

Bonus: a “hammock pause” in the rocky pine forest

Along the Höga Kustenleden / High Coast Trail segments in this area you’ll pass through beautiful rocky pine forest — perfect for a quiet reset before (or after) the steep part.

If you like the idea: bring a hammock kit (or a small Day Kit) and give yourself 20 minutes of stillness. It turns the outing from “a viewpoint mission” into a real High Coast moment.

Hammock tip (Leave No Trace)

  • Choose sturdy pines and avoid fragile young trees

  • Use tree‑friendly straps (wide straps = kinder to bark)

  • Keep it short, calm, and pack out everything

If you want a calmer day, the High Coast has plenty of beautiful alternatives too. Tell us what you’re after (relaxed vs challenge) and we’ll point you to the best option for today.

🇸🇪 KORT PÅ SVENSKA

Getsvedjeberget (Predikstolen) är en av de mest fotade utsikterna i Höga Kusten — och den är verkligen fin. Sista biten är kort men brant och lite teknisk, både upp och ner. Ta det lugnt, bra skor hjälper mycket, och var extra försiktig om det är blött eller blåsigt.
Bonus: i området finns klippig tallskog som passar perfekt för en kort hängmattepaus (20 minuter gör stor skillnad). Använd breda remmar och lämna inga spår.

Skriv till oss: “Getsvedjeberget idag — morgon eller solnedgång? Och är det en hängmattedag?”
