Liatårnet from Fjellavegen via Fjellasåta

Dato:
12.10.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
7,4km

We parked south of Fjell along Søre Fjellavegen and started our hike by aiming at Fjellasåta via Rindane. Basically at the saddle, where Søre Fjellavegen starts to descend again towards the south, we found a very basic trail (or something like that), which brought us well up and onto Rindane (towards the east). Even though this trail (or "trail") was not always immediately obvious, we still made it quickly and easily to Fjellasåta (Kannikahaugen). From there, and instead of following the north-south oriented trail across Fjellasåta, we proceeded further eastwards (towards the southern end of Gyravatnet). When down at Festningsvegen, we did not have to search long before we found a little opening in the thick valley forest. This opening connected to a simple "trail" >>>

Lyderhorn from Kjøkkelvikveien

Dato:
05.10.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
4,7km

We parked close to the Kjøkkelvikveien-Nedbergeveien junction and first walked a bit along Kjøkkelvikveien to find a good place for starting our ascent towards Stemmebakkane and Høgenuten. Opposite to Fæsterveien, we then found a narrow access road, leading up to the house with number 105. After the second hairpin curve up the rather steep mountain side, we then followed a simple trail into the forest (and further upwards). Even though there's no trail to be seen on Norgeskart for this part, one still can find simple hiking trails "all the way up" to Stemmebakkane and Høgenuten. From up there, one also then can enjoy some nice views. A bit south of Høgenuten, one then joins the main trail to Lyderhorn. After making it "all the way up" to Lyderhorn (not so much >>>

City walk through Delft

Dato:
03.10.2025
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
9,2km

Having a bit of extra time on my hand, I decided to explore Delft a little (despite the clearly rainy weather). This brought me both to the campus of TU Delft, as well as into the center of Deft (twice), including Oude Delft, Markt, Beestenmarkt, etc. :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Hochstaff & Reisalpe from Ebenwaldhöhe

Dato:
27.09.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
9,7km

Expecting some nice weather on this Saturday, we aimed at a nice hike not too far from Vienna. After comparing a few opportunities, we ended up with driving to Ebenwaldhöhe in the west of Kleinzell and hiking from there to Reisalpe, also including an ascent to Hochstaff "on the way". For some 400 meters, we first followed a simple road, mostly in southern direction, across Ebenwaldhöhe, before then deviating from the main track (which leads around Hochstaff on its northwestern side) to include an ascent to Hochstaff, also. This route is not exactly well marked and one better knows where to go; despite of this detail, however, it's still all on proper trails to get up to Hochstaff from Ebenwaldhöhe (the ascent to Hochstaff is quite steep, but still nicely within "regular >>>

Ötscher via Rauher Kamm from Lackenhof

Dato:
21.09.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
6:00t
Distanse:
15,9km

After spending the night involuntarily at an airport hotel in Amsterdam, we got to Vienna early on this Sunday, expecting a nice day. We thus rushed to get into the mountains, driving to Lackenhof in the southwest of Vienna. Our plan was to make a nice hiking round up and down Ötscher, using its northeastern ridge (Rauher Kamm) as the ascent route, while then descending via the Ötscherschutzhaus in the southwest of the mountain. Once in Lackenhof, we aimed at the large parking lot in Weitental to leave the car behind -- just to find that it was completely full with cars (while the combination of Sunday with nice weather and our relatively late arrival could have let us anticipate this situation, we had not). Luckily, one parking place got freed up only minutes after our arrival, letting >>>

Lundåsane from Hausdalen

Dato:
14.09.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
5,9km

We wished to explore the Hausdalen-side of Lundåsane and thus drove to Hausdalen, where we parked a bit south of Håland. From there, we first walked up a gravel road that extends parallel to Hålandsbekken. About half way up, I decided that I wished to explore Storerinden, in the east of Slokadalen, also. Stepping up to this hill was straight-forward, while not on a trail, though. From Storerinden, while not really a prominent "peak", I still got a nice view towards Hausdalshorgi (it's always nice to see Hausdalshorgi!). I then continued across the ridge to re-connect with the gravel road near the T-junction, where one leg of the gravel road extends a bit further up to Plasset. Instead of following the gravel road any further, though, I used a trail (maybe more a former trail) >>>

Lysehornet from Kismulvegen

Dato:
07.09.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
6,9km

We had the idea to hike Lysehornet from the northeast (from Kismulvegen) and thus drove via Fana to Kalandsvatnet. Near house #47 along Kismulvegen, we parked -- not without an interaction with a man, who made it explicit that he'd wish us to park in Bygarasjen instead. We then started our hike into southwestern direction, first following a side-part of Kismulvegen up and towards Lindedalen. At large, the plan was to get to Lysehornet without a trail, while then taking a trail back down. After passing the upper houses (and quite a bit of rusting garbage of small to large sizes), we eventually made into the forest of Lindedalen. The first high point to reach was Hovåsen and the ascent from the northeast was a bit steep (but well doable). From Hovåsen, the plan was to hike around the >>>

Golta in mixed weather

Dato:
31.08.2025
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,0km

With a rather mixed weather forecast, we wished to make a brief excursion to the Atlantic and chose Golta as our goal. After driving there from Bergen and parking at Goltavegen, right between Vogga in the west and Goltosen in the east, we walked towards the coast from there, first following the marked trail. To get around Lutavika, we then followed the coast in norther direction, crossing over to the northwestern part of Golta at the southern end of Jonsvikadalen. On the other side, we then first visited a nice vista point south of Luten, before walking further to Sandvika. There, we basically turned around, then following the marked trail all the way back to the parking place. Given that the day was overall rainy, we actually had quite OK weather and enjoyed this short walk very much! >>>

Turku Saturday morning walk

Dato:
30.08.2025
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
15,9km

I had a few morning hours on this Saturday before heading back to Bergen, which I wished to use for a walk to see a bit of Turku. I started by crossing the Aura river at Kirjastosilta, heading to the Samppalinnanvuori vantage point for a first view across the city. From there, my next goal was the hill-top Luolavuori, hoping for some additional views from up there. While stepping up there, I also looked at the enormous water tower not far from the hill-top. On my way down from Luolavuori, I then passed by an impressive boulder, right north of the water tower, that apparently a glacier left there a long time ago. My next goal was then to cross the Aura river using the small ferry Föri, but when I got there, I learned that it was not operated, unfortunately. I thus decided to walk around >>>

Gjønakvitingen from Gjøn (via Selfjellet)

Dato:
17.08.2025
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
8:00t
Distanse:
13,5km

The weather was promising and so we thought this would be a good day to hike up to Gjønakvitingen from Gjøn. From Bergen, we drove towards the East, first along E16, then road #49, before taking road #48 to Eikelandsosen. From there, it was not too far, continuing into eastern direction, before we changed to a narrow road at Holdhus. This way, we drove around the south end of Gjønavatnet in order to get to Gjønavegen, which brought us to Gjøn. At about noon-time, we then started our hike (with enough time on such a nice, long summer Sunday). The one, small "twist", which we had cooked up, when studying the map at home, was to include Selfjellet (via an ascent on the western side of Skarvaelva), before eventually taking the "main trail" down (south of Sauaskorfjellet). >>>
