Skogsøyna on a nice winter day
- Datum:
- 17.01.2026
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 2:00h
- Entfernung:
- 5,3km
With a friend, visiting from abroad, we chose Skogsøyna as a very nice outing option. Following the main trail, which by now has been upgraded in multiple places, we soon reached Skogsøytua at the southwestern end of the island. After walking around the spectacular cliff area out there, we then walked basically the same (main) trail back. As always very nice to visit Skogsøyna!

Round around Stora Krokatjørna
- Datum:
- 11.01.2026
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 1:30h
- Entfernung:
- 6,6km
We first thought that this "only" would be a very short excursion in the neighborhood (and so we stepped onto the small peninsula in the west of Sælevatnet for a short round), but then we still decided to make a slightly longer round nonetheless, leaving Varden in northwards direction in order to get into Kanadaskogen. At Stora Krokatjørna, we decided to use the icy condition to walk around the lake (instead of crossing over Langaheia as usually). We then turned around, heading towards Hesjaholten. At last, instead of just walking back along some roads, we decided to pass by frozen Gjeddevatnet to get back to Varden. There, we also used the frozen condition to pass by Myratjørna, which usually is not recommended (too wet).

Fyllingsdalen round with Gullsteinen
- Datum:
- 04.01.2026
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 4:00h
- Entfernung:
- 13,9km
We were up for a Fyllingsdalen round and even though it was already a bit late we still thought that including Gullsteinen was doable (and so it was). From Varden, we first surrounded Bondegården at Sælehaugen before then aiming at Rekdalsveien. After connecting to Hattedalen, we then walked up to Bråtet in order to get started with our ascent to Gullsteinen. Even though it was icy in a few places, we still enjoyed the walk over the ridge very much. After passing over Gullsteinen, we then took a trail to Rosenlund, which only was a little bit of a challenge in the slight steeper sections due to the snow and ice. The way back towards the south of Fyllingsdalen was then on roads, mostly, given that it had turned into a dark night by then.

Storhovden and Svartaberget from Varden
- Datum:
- 02.01.2026
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 3:00h
- Entfernung:
- 9,5km
We started northwards from Varden, crossing the soccer fields to get closer to Kanadaskogen near Hesjaholten. After paying Hesjaholten a short visit, we continued further towards Krokatjørna. This time, we decided to cross over Langaheia from the south, before connecting to Storhovden via Spelhaugen. Since the day was indeed very nice, we then decided to also include Svartaberget via Storamyra where it was nice to also look up to TOBRIK. On Svartaberget, we then enjoyed a really nice winter view towards the west before starting our walk back southwards. After passing by Bjørndalsvatnet and Gjeddevatnet, we arrived back at Varden with good satisfaction about the very nice day!

With a new year, we immediately got a new chance to visit Knappen! :-) This time, we first headed to Knappatjørna, before then approaching Knappen from the south. For a small change, we first stepped up to Hesthaugen, before eventually visiting Knappen and Eldtona.

Førdesveten from Kleppe
- Datum:
- 27.12.2025
- Tourcharakter:
- Wanderung
- Tourlänge:
- 2:30h
- Entfernung:
- 8,1km
Yes, quite some wind was predicted, but still the weather seemed too good to not go out for a short while. After enjoying a nice round around Dyrdalsvatnet the day before, we decided that it should be Førdesveten south in Øygarden this day. We parked in Kleppe and took the route via Høylandsfjellet, Midtfjellet, and Lyngfjellet up to Veten. The higher we got, the more we experienced the rather strong winds! Near the top, we then took a short break in the still relatively new Dagsturhytten before heading back down via Ramnaberget and Kleppaksla. On the way down from Kleppaksla, we found a trail with pink markers in the southwest of Fenadalen, which brought us down to Sundvegen not far from where we had parked.

Slettegga, Austefjellet, and Hausdalshorgi

- Tourlänge:
- 5:00h
- Entfernung:
- 13,3km
We expected a nice winter day and started a bit earlier than usually to exploit the short daylight period as well as possible. After driving up to Bontveit and parking there right next to the saddle, we started first hiking northwards along Bontveitvegen. Very soon, however, we turned left to explore Åsane (in parallel to Bontveitvegen). While it was fully possible to traverse Åsane, also without any trail, it occasionally got a touch of a nice xMas bush war. At Langemyrskaret, we reconnected with Bontveitvegen, having a nice chat with another hiker, who had enjoyed the rising sun from Slettegga. Then, instead of following the standard trail up to Slettegga, we included another small exploration: Halvardshaugen in the northwest of Bjørnstølåsen, from which we enjoyed some really nice >>>
Løvstakken from/to Bergen
- Datum:
- 25.12.2025
- Tourcharakter:
- Wanderung
- Tourlänge:
- 1:30h
- Entfernung:
- 6,7km
Even though it was a bit late, already, we still wished to make a quick round somewhere near. Doing Løvstakken from the Bergen-side seemed just right (and so it was). We used the gravel road that starts from Løvstien just above Solheimslien to get up. On Løvstakken, we met an unexpected sight: most of one of the two masts was missing from its top -- what's happening? :-) To get back down, we chose to cross over Ravnefjellet and then use Løvstien to get back around to the Bergen-side. Our timing was just right to return before it got all dark.

Round around Sælenvatnet with Barhaugen
- Datum:
- 20.12.2025
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 2:00h
- Entfernung:
- 8,3km
We wished to get some fresh air, or so, and thus headed out to a short round around Sælenvatnet. The first goal was to walk around Bondegården along the northern shore of Sælenvatnet (even though it gets quite a bit wet on the southeastern side of Bondegården). After crossing the bridge north of Øyrane, we then continued along Sælenveien, before finding a connection up to Stokkedalen. There, we then scaled the rather steep hillside up to the upper stretch of Rekdalsveien. From there, it was then over to Barhaugen and back down towards Straumshaugen. While all of this round was not really spectacular, we did catch some nice winter light. :-)
