Steinfjellet from Osavatnet (via Vossavardane)

Date:
09.06.2025
Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
7:00h
Distance:
16.4km

We decided to make a hike to Steinfjellet in the east of Gulltjørna. After comparing different approach options, we decided to hike Steinfjellet from Osavatnet (via Vossavardane). This gave us also the opportunity to explore the direct ascent to Vossavardane from Songstaddalen via Gasebrekkene. After parking near Osavatnet, we thus first hiked into the direction of Songstaddalen (northwest of Svartavassrinden). From Songstaddalen, we then entered the lower stretches of Gasebrekkene (steep, yes, but well doable -- without a trail, of course). Getting up to the saddle between Hotten in the south and Tjørndalsskaret in the north proved well possible, while steep as expected. The only one point to consider is that it's not all that clear how to avoid a bush war up there (possible, but one >>>

Luxembourg via the Plateau de Kirchberg

Date:

Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:00h
Distance:
11.6km

Evening walk to downtown Luxembourg. I started from Parc Hotel Alvisse and ascended first the Plateau de Kirchberg at op de Schleed. I then headed to the still relatively newly built up area at the Plateau de Kirchberg. There, I then passed by the Philharmonic Hall of Luxembourg. I then walked through the fortifications at Fort Thüngen to descend into the valley of the Alzette. On the other side, I found a way to get up to the Plateau Altmünster. From there, I used the Montée de Clausen to get into the city of Luxembourg. After walking across both the Place Guillaume II and the Place d'Armes, I then decided that it was time to head back to the hotel. Near the Rue des Bains, I got onto the Avenue de la Porte-Neuve, which I then followed until I got on the Rue des Glacis. Where this >>>
