The rock formation Preikestolen in Norway was formed by frost weathering about 10,000 years ago, when the edges of the glacier extended above the rock.

(ID 38551)


The rock formation Preikestolen in Norway was formed by frost weathering about 10,000 years ago, when the edges of the glacier extended above the rock. Water froze in the rock crevices and broke off large, angular blocks, which the glacier then carried along. This is the reason for the angular shape of the plateau. A deep crack still runs along the plateau today. However, the geologists of the region confirm the safety of the plateau.
