Biking Askøy with Dyrdalsfjellet

Datum:
15.05.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
38,2km

After work, we still wished to get out and thus decided to make a bike-trip to Askøy. After following the main bike-route to Askøy, which follows first Kjøkkelvikveien, north of Loddefjord, before then continuing along Sundby Hvorups vei to connect to the large bridge, we then cycled up Stongafjellsvegen to get up to the south of Dyrdalsfjellet. In fact, it was possible to bike almost all the way up and we "only" had a few height meters left to walk, after leaving our bikes behind on the saddle in the south of Dyrdalsfjellet. After first enjoying the views from Dyrdalsfjellet, we then included also Varden at Øvre Kleppe for some more nice views. Once back to the bikes, we decided that we could make a round via Erdalen before heading back. We therefore continued to bike in >>>

To Alvøen and back

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
26,2km

We thought that it would be interesting to have another look at the progress of the construction of the new bridge to Sotra. We thus took our bikes and headed into the direction of Alvøen. At Hetlevikstraumen, we used the small bridge to get over to the western side of Mathopsvågen. At Mathopen, we then took a turn to the right in order to connect to Småvatnet a bit further north. Biking along Småvatnet, we then connected to Hakonshellaveien. From there, we then descended to the old main building of Alvøen. On the other side of Alvøen, the continuation was then along Pålaveien and Ramsvikveien further northwards. At Janaveien, the new bridge came into view, first, and from Janahaugen one could enjoy a nice close-up view. Also from the other side, at Drotningsvikveien, looking >>>

To Åsane via Bergen and back

Datum:
07.05.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour Straße
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
56,1km

I had something to do in Åsane and thus decided to extend my bike to trip to Bergen by a detour via Åsane. On my way back, I included a traverse via Munkebotn (instead of cycling around Eidsvågsneset again) and Fjellveien. See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Bike-hiking Fanafjellet

Datum:
03.05.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
42,3km

We decided to combine biking and hiking, heading to Fanafjellet with our bikes. Leaving our bikes behind at Fanasæter, we then hiked the one round on Fanafjellet, which includes Høgeåsen and Lyseskarfjellet (Linken), returning via Ramberget to Fanasæter. On our way back, we then included a short detour via Fanahammeren, before then cycling around Hordnesskogen. From Grimseidvegen, we then crossed through Skageskogen to get to Øvre Birkeland. From there, it was then along Ytrebygdsvegen back. Nice to comine biking and hiking on such a nice day! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

A nice day in Wien

We used this nice day to first bike to Karlsplatz, where we visited Albertina Modern and the KAWS exhibition there. Thereafter, we crossed through the first district of Vienna, also enjoying the world's best icecream at Tuchlauben, before then biking along Donaukanal to get back. Very nice! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Entfernung:

After first biking from Smolenice to Marchegg and then taking a train to Vienna, I still had to cover some 10km in Vienna. This worked as planned and there's nothing special to report about the route. See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Biking from Smolenice to Marchegg

Datum:
29.04.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:45h
Entfernung:
69,6km

After lunch, I made myself ready for another bike-trip: this time in the northwest of the Carpartian mountains back to Austria. For the third time in three days, I headed first westwards (and into the Carpartian mountains), following the forest road south of Havranica and Záruby. While this forest road is really nice near Smolenica castle, it gets a bit more rough a bit further west (and higher up in the mountains). Still, it was straight-forward to traverse it, even with all the luggage. The descent on the other side, to Plavecký Mikuláš, was partly quite steep, but cycling down there was still possible without real difficulties. I then cycled along road 501 which brought me through Sološnica and Rohožník to Pernek. Further down the same road, I then arrived in Lozorno. South >>>

Biking from Bratislava to Smolenice

Datum:
26.04.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
76,7km

After first biking through Vienna , I then took the boat (TwinCityLiner) from Vienna to Bratislava. From there, I had planned to bike to Smolenice in the northeast of Bratislava, following the southeastern feet of the Carpartian mountains. After arriving between the SNP bridge and Starý (old) bridge, I first had to find my way through Bratislava. Relatively soon, I found myself on Špitálska, before then continuing on Krížna and Vajnorská towards the northeast. Since it was Sunday in the morning, the traffic was limited and biking along these major roads was just fine. I then took a turn left onto Jarošova, before soon turning right, again (onto Racianska). Following Racianska, which is one of the main roads out of Bratislava towards the north, I quickly made the necessary kilometers to get out of Bratislava. >>>

Through Wien to Donaukanal

Datum:
26.04.2026
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour Straße
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
13,2km

Main goal for this day was to get from Vienna to Smolenice (partly by boat, partly by bike). To first get to the boat (TwinCityLiner) in Vienna, I needed to bridge some 13km by bike in the early morning, first. Nothing special about the bike-route, though, to report. Selected photos are available as Google photo album . The TwinCityLiner is an interesting alternative option to get from Vienna to Bratislava (or the other way around).
