The incredible experience provides impressive views for those who are brave enough to step foot on the boulder , but those who are afraid of heights would become weak at the knees and think better of it .

It is situated more than 3,500ft above sea level and is a popular photo spot for thrill-seekers who are willing to risk their lives for a memorable holiday photo . Despite the rain making its surface slippery the group of visitors in these photos ventured onto the boulder and posed with their arms in the air or a thumb extended as other tourists waited their turn . Software developer Ronny Randen , 39 , took the photos while he was travelling with five friends to climb Preikestolen , also known as Pulpit Rock . Kjeragbolten – the official name for the boulder – is located on the edge of the Kjerag mountain in Rogaland , Norway . He said : ‘ During our visit if was a rainy , and the boulder was actually a bit slippery . There 's a little path on the left side where you can jump onto the rock . ‘ It 's hard to describe the feeling of standing on the boulder . After walking up the mountains your legs are a bit tired , and the idea of jumping onto , and balancing on , a slippery boulder hanging above a fjord seems like a really bad idea . ‘ But , to be honest , it 's not hard getting out there , and it is well worth it. ’ Mr Randen , dressed in blue , can be seen posing on the boulder with his hands in the air and in one photo , taken from a distance , shows the stunning view and terrifying drop . Despite the rain making its surface slippery the group of visitors in these photos ventured onto the boulder for some memorable snaps . Mr Randen , who lives just outside Oslo , said the hike up to Kjeragbolten is demanding as it involves three steep climbs . He added : ‘ Most of the time you walk on smooth rock and boulders and because it was rainy and foggy it was a bit slippery . ‘ There are metal chains along the steepest climbs of the trail . When we finally arrived at the boulder it was rather foggy but after a while it started to clear up and we were rewarded with a stunning view of the Lysefjord . ‘ The whole experience was so breathtaking and just looking at the images now really takes me back there . ‘ It 's not a place you go very often as it 's a bit remote , but it 's such an amazing piece of art from nature that it is definitely worth going . ’
