Løvstakken from Langeskogen

Date:
15.02.2020
Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
1:30h
Distance:
5.5km

With only about two or three hours of daylight left, we headed for a quick hike up and down Løvstakken. This time, we decided to try a route from the very southern end of Løvstien (at Øvre Kråkenes). We parked right next to the end of Løvstien, near the new roundabout at Øvre Kråkenes, and started our hike along Løvstien in northeastern direction. Before passing by Lerkhaugen, where also quite a bit of water comes down, we left Løvstien and started our ascent towards Løvstakken, following a nice and proper trail that leaves exactly where Løstien crosses over the stream from the left. This trail leads almost perfectly in northern direction up the mountain, following (on its eastern side) the course of a stream that comes down from Langatjørna. At about 275mosl, one passes by >>>

Litlagullfjellet

Date:
02.02.2020
Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
5:00h
Distance:
12.1km

After a longer, relatively wet period, we anticipated a nice Sunday and thus planned "a proper hike"! :-) For a longer time, already, we had thought about visiting Litlagullfjellet, and this day seemed to give a nice opportunity to do it. Litlagullfjellet is part of the Gullfjellet mountains, located northwest of Gullfjelltoppen. It's not so much visited, since Gullfjelltoppen is higher and thus "overshadowing" Litlagullfjellet. Further, you have to plan your hike a little, since "coming by" Litlagullfjellet "accidentally" is rather unlikely (no major trails lead to it, really). Once up there, however, one can enjoy great views, mostly towards the west, making it worthwhile to visit nonetheless! :-) We took the car from Bergen, following road 587 >>>

Micro"tops" in Fyllingsdalen

Date:
01.02.2020
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:30h
Distance:
5.5km

Despite the wet weather, we still wished to get some fresh air. Instead of anything "more major", we simply started with visiting the highest point of Varden! :-) Inspired by having reached an insignificant "top", we decided to continue along a similar idea. Looking over across Sælen, we identified an unnamed "top" near Myrholtet and soon later we had arrived there (being very surprised about our trip goals!). Having had not enough of these understatement of "hiking", we headed further northwards and "up" to some minor heights in the west of Spelhaugen. There, we eventually came close to Langaheia, but decided to cut it short, after all. From there, it was then basically back home (with a short visit to the shop in-between). Clearly, >>>
