Continue straight until you reach the intersection with Østre Havnegate. Turn right and follow the road until you reach the end of the street. At the roundabout, take the second exit onto Haakon VIIs gate. Continue walking straight for approximately 5-7 minutes. You will see Stavanger Cathedral on your left at Haakon VIIs gate 2.

Take any bus that stops at the 'Stavanger bussterminal' (the main bus station). Once you arrive at the bus terminal, exit the building and walk towards the pedestrian area. Head northeast along the pedestrian street, Øvre Holmegate, and then follow the same walking directions mentioned previously to reach Stavanger Cathedral.
