We traveled by Ryanair to Haugesund (actually Helganes) airport in September 2005. When I was planning this 'off-season' trip, I found it difficult to find information for costs, schedules, and options after the tourist season ended August 31.
I have placed the following information in a travelogue under Stavanger, Norway (as it was our base). It includes prices, schedules, and travel times for three weekdays:
Helganes (Haugesund Airport) to Kopervik by taxi
Kopervik to Stavanger by ferry
Stavanger to Tau by ferry
Tau to Preikestolhytta by bus and taxi
Preikestolhytta to Tau by taxi
Tau to Stavanger by ferry
Stavanger to Haugesund by ferry
Haugesund to Airport (Helganes) by taxi
(Stavanger to Lysefjord / Lysebotn option)
