Anekletten on Toftøyna
- Datum:
- 29.01.2017
- Tourcharakter:
- Wanderung
- Tourlänge:
- 2:00h
- Entfernung:
- 7,2km
I drove westwards from Bergen and over to Sotra, where I turned right (and northwards), following road #561, first through Knappskog and then through Ågotnes. A bit further north, I passed over Misje, before connecting to Toftøyna. There, I drove almost to the very north of this little island (near Torsteinsvik) and parked the car right where a little road called Husdalen connects with Toftøyvegen (road #561).
On the other side of the street (on the eastern side), a path extends from the main road, leading eastwards. When crossing over a little dip, that connects to Orrdalsvatnet further south, I did not immediately see the continuation of the path and followed (instead) another path, which leads in northeastern direction. I followed this path until an area, where maybe some scouts are >>>
Svartaberget in nice winter sun
- Datum:
- 14.01.2017
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 3:00h
- Entfernung:
- 9,0km
We started in Varden and used Bregnestien to get close to Gjeddevatnet as soon as possible.
Once had descended to Gjeddevatnet (basically to the place, where occasionally some bath in warmer months), we continued along the water (in northward direction). We kept going along the water, passing by Skogadotten and Skaget until we reached Gjerdsvika. Before going further to Bjørndalsvatnet (over the heights southwest of Hesjaholtet), we first made a short visit to Fureneset (very nice in the winter sun!). We then crossed over the heights west of Hesjaholtet in order to connect to Bjørndalsvatnet. We came back down to the water basically directly west of the northern most block of Hesjaholtet and managed to continue along the water (even though there is a very steep cliff to its eastern side). >>>
Gullaksdalen from Loddefjord
- Datum:
- 07.01.2017
- Tourcharakter:
- Wanderung
- Tourlänge:
- 2:00h
- Entfernung:
- 7,7km
We parked in Frieda Fasmers vei, near Loddefjord, and started in parallel to the highway, rounding Storavatnet on its northern side. Where road 555 enters Harafjelltunnelen, we followed a major gravel road that turns southwards and leads to a place called Slettebakksmyra. There, at two points, other gravel roads depart from the one we took (at the first junction, we continued straight ahead and at the second, we turned left and upwards, following a sign to Gullaksdalen). We then continued on the gravel road until it ends. There, one can read about the history of Gullaksdalen. We then continued a few meters further, reaching a nice place with great view of Småvatnet. Only meters from there, we could see some of the historic ruins, which were described on the information board at the end >>>
Løvstakken via Nova
- Datum:
- 01.01.2017
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 1:15h
- Entfernung:
- 3,3km
We parked the car at the parking place right above Litlavatnet (along Krohnegården street in upper Fyllingsdalen) and had the plan to try out a new route up Løvstakken. And so we did! :-) We started along the usual path, which leads firmly upwards (in northeastern direction towards the saddle between Ravnefellet and Løvstakken). After having past the little waterfall on our right, we found the right spot, where a less used path leaves to the right. We followed this minor path, which makes a comparably large half-circle around the waterfall (and above it), turning into a southward direction. Right above the waterfall, one needs to expect wet terrain; so good shoes are helpful, when choosing this alternative. From there, we then continued to ascend (following the kind of diagonally oriented >>>
Around Gåssandvatnet

- Tourlänge:
- 3:00h
- Entfernung:
- 10,1km
After first visiting a shop in Søfteland (along E39 from Bergen to Os), we wanted to make a hike around Gåssandvatnet. We parked our car right next to the Søfteland school and started to walk from there. First, we followed a little path, which leads southwards (parallel to E39, but not right at it, fortunately).
Our plan was to cross Storestraumen across a little bridge, which we had seen before on the map. Once we got there, however, we met an unexpected challenge: The bridge belongs to the private place on the other side of Storestraumen and it is locked with a door that is also secured by an alarm. Since we were motivated to not give up at once, we organized the telephone number of the owner of the bridge from a friendly neighbor and then called. Luckily we were then enabled to cross >>>
Ljosvollsvarden
- Datum:
- 27.12.2016
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 1:00h
- Entfernung:
- 3,5km
We left home in slight rain and no indication that the weather should clear up any time soon, driving via Midtun to the street, which leads up to Totland (road #183). We passed by Myrdalsvatnet and continued further upwards. Before we came to Fjellbirkeland, we parked right next to the road (at about 5.401°E/60.305°N).
From there, we took a forest road, which leads steadily upwards (in southwestern direction). Soon the light rain turned into light snowfall (a bit nicer, after all). Once we came up and the terrain became comparably flat, we left the forest road and entered the forest in order to find a connection to the "top" of Ljosvollsvarden.
We started (in the thick forest!) in southwestern direction, before we reached the end of the forest. There, we turned right (now in >>>
Storm-beaten Lyderhorn interruptus
- Datum:
- 26.12.2016
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 1:00h
- Entfernung:
- 2,3km
We parked near Kjøkkelvik school on the western side of Lyderhorn and started to go from there (along Lyderhornslien). Once in Olderdalen, we started to ascend along the well-used path (upwards in southeastern direction).
Near Små-Lyderhorn, at about 275mosl, we started to feel the strong winds, which also were announced all along the southwestern coast of Norway. Only minutes later, we concluded that the winds were too strong for continuing further up along the outer (southern) side of Lyderhorn. Instead, we decided to turn around, descend into Olderdalen (instead of taking the same path back, which we had taken up), and make an attempt to connect to this other path between Lyderhornslien and Lyderhorn (a bit further north).
In principle, everything went as intended, but it must be noted >>>
Løvstakken
- Datum:
- 23.12.2016
- Tourcharakter:
- Bergtour
- Tourlänge:
- 1:15h
- Entfernung:
- 3,5km
We parked at the small parking place right above Litlavanet (along road Krohnegården). We then stepped upwards in northeastern direction (towards Ravnefjellet) and came to the small saddle between Ravnefjellet and Løvstakken soon. From there, we turned "back" towards Løvstakken (mostly in southern direction, then). Soon later, we came to the top of Løvstakken. We returned basically along the same route. Almost all the way back, a little excursion (to the upper parts of the little waterfall down there "in the western corner of Løvstakken") was added---mostly to get an idea, whether one could ascend to Løvstakken also from there "diritissima" (it seems so---to be explored!).

We drove west from Bergen to Sotra and then further to Fjell, where we took the road 559 into the direction of Møvik. At the upper (eastern) end of Møvik, we parked near a supermarket on the northern side of the road (where a small road called Signalvegen leaves towards the right (north).
From there, all this short hike is pretty straight-forward: First, we followed Signalvegen upwards until we came to Signalvatnet (not quite as full as it seemingly seems to be at other times!). We followed the gravel road further until we came to the dam at the western end of Signalvatnet.
There we crossed over, using some wooden stairs that invite to step up to the hillside conveniently. Then, it's just a few steps until one reaches the upper parts of the western end of the Signal-hill. At the "top", >>>
Knappen in December
- Datum:

- 1:00h
- Entfernung:
- 4,6km
We started at Varden, walking down Marineveien and further on Bjørgeveien, where we turned left into Sandeidbrotet shortly after, leading steeply upwards (towards Knappatjørna). At "the top", where the street makes a sharp turn to the left, a hiking path leaves to the right (only a few meters above another side-road, which only connects to a private place instead). Following the hiking path (into northwestern direction) brings one nearby Røstafjellet, i.e., another residential area (north of Knappen and slightly elevated above Bjørgeveien). Before actually entering this area, another hiking path leaves to the left and upwards, first in western direction, but then, following the ridge, turning more and more into southern direction. Once on the ridge, the path follows the heights >>>
