Round around Fyllingsdalen

Dato:
03.04.2026
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
27,5km

With a prediction of rain in the early afternoon, we decided to just cycle a little (towards Bergen and back), instead of aiming for a mountain top. First, we headed northwards along Bjørgeveien. Instead of cycling directly to Bjørndalen, however, we decided to make a simple detour around Bjørndalspollen, taking advantage of the little bridge at Hetlevikstraumen. At Loddefjord, we turned right and continued towards Laksevåg on the southeasern side of Lyderhorn (along Liavatnet). In the north of Holefjellet, we then parked our bikes for a few minutes to walk up to Noven and take a look at the historic relics from WWII there. Especially in times, when war seems to become "normal" again, it's moving particularly to be reminded of the major catastrophy that unfolded when a four-digit >>>

Round around Nordåsvatnet

Dato:
28.03.2026
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
23,8km

Without a particular goal in mind, we just thought that biking around Nordåsvatnet could be nice. After first heading south, in the west of Sælevatnet, we then crossed over Straume to Søreide, where we took a look a the church (just from the outside). Cycling up via Karlsmarka to connect to Dolvikvegen was an unusual alternative, then. Next, we had the idea to explore Søvika a little. Once back on Steinsvikvegen, we then followed "the usual track" around Steinsvika. We then connected to Nordåsvegen, but not via the usual connection (that's a bit higher up), but via Nordåsbrotet. Next was to cycle down to Skjoldabukta before it was up again along Harald Skjolds veg. Via Skjoldvegen and Sundts veg, we then got to Hopsåsen, which also was unusual as a connection to Troldhaugvegen. >>>

Was man nicht im Kopf hat, hat man (hoffentlich) in den Beinen, sagt man. I had left something at work, which I wished to use, and since the weather was quite OK, I thought that I could combine the necessary with some biking. I started by surrounding Bønes on its south (north of Nordåsvatnet), heading eastwards. North of Gamlehaugen, when arriving at Fjøsanger, I decided that I could visit Storetveit kirke, which I had seen numerous times while biking either to or from work, but never really visited up-close. Then, I continued further northwards towards the center of Bergen. After picking up my stuff, I then thought that I could equally well continue this "round around Fyllingsdalen", aiming at Laksevåg, next. After passing over Nygårdshøyden and Puddefjordsbroen, I then >>>

From Rotterdam to Haarlem

Dato:
09.11.2025
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
8:00t
Distanse:
81,1km

Our plan for the day was to get to Haarlem (from Rotterdam) and given the promising weather forecast we decided to bike there. Starting relatively early from Rotterdam, our first intermediate goal was Delft, where we aimed at some nice breakfast. While we initially thought to cycle along the Schie, we instead ended up following a bike route in parallel to the highway between Rotterdam and Delft. This route was not as nice as the planned one, but it brought us to Delft relatively quickly. In Delft, we then cycled to the main square, where we enjoyed a nice breakfast, sitting outside in the sun. Next, we aimed at getting to the dunes in the north of Den Haag. Close to Scheveningen, we then entered the dunes park. From there, it was then a very nice bike ride along a fine bike path in parallel >>>

Rottemeren from/to Rotterdam

Dato:
08.11.2025
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
41,1km

We arrived with the water bus from Dordrecht near Erasmusbrug in Rotterdam and rented bikes on our way towards the center of Rotterdam. Given the pleasant autumn weather, we decided to take the bikes on a ride to Rottemeren. We first cycled to Kralingse Plas and then, via Rotterdam Alexander, to the Rotte a bit further north. Following the Rotte further northwards, we then cycled to Veerpont Bleiswijk, before turning around and cycling back to Rotterdam. Once back in Rotterdam, we first visited the Kunsthal, before later refilling some energies. All in all, a very nice day on the bike in Rotterdam! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Donaupark, first, and then towards Mauer

Dato:
06.11.2025
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
12:00t
Distanse:
40,3km

I first biked to Austria Center Vienna for the conference, which I attended during these days. During the lunch break, I made a nice stroll through Donaupark right next to the conference center to catch some fresh air and some late autumn sun. After returning to Wien Landstrasse after the conference, my second goal of the day was to visit the southwest of Vienna. To get there, I biked via Margareten and along Edelsinnstrasse, before crossing over the railtracks for good to continue into the direction of Mauer. On my way back, I followed a similar route, just not descending into Margareten, again, but cycling along Wiedener Hauptstrasse instead. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Bike excursion to Lobau

Dato:
01.11.2025
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
34,8km

To refresh myself a little (before the next work session), I took the bike and made a quite excursion into Lobau, in the southeast of Vienna. I first biked into Prater and then over the Praterbrücke onto the Donauinsel, where I headed further towards Lobau in southeastern direction. After biking through Ölhafen Lobau, I eventually arrived at the nature reserve of Lobau. There, I explored a few paths, enjoying silence and nice nature. To get back, I took a different route, crossing over the Donau at the power station at Freudenau. This then brought me also to the rather peculiar Pagode right next to the Danube.

Jubiläumswarte and Mahnmal für die Opfer vom Spiegelgrund

Dato:
25.10.2025
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
32,8km

I used my bike to visit the northwest of Vienna, biking first there, before eventually making a round to/from Jubiläumswarte on foot. One the way back, I then passed by the Mahnmal für die Opfer vom Spiegelgrund (memorial commemorating the victims at Spiegelgrund) at night, seeing the 772 steles lit for the first time. Clearly, it is very moving to visit this memorial at night! Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Several other sites, including one at geschichtewiki.wien.gv.at and the one at gedenkstaettesteinhof.at remind of the grim history of Steinhof.

Back to Austria via Sella Nevea (from Moggio)

Dato:
22.10.2025
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
7:30t
Distanse:
75,3km

The plan for the fourth (and last) day of our four-days bike ride through the Julian Alps was to bike back to Austria from Moggio. Again, we started relatively early in Moggio to have enough time for the roughly 75km back (including the Selle Nevea mountain pass). This time, we were updated enough to understand that parallel to the main road (SS13) through the valley of Fiume Fella one can find the Alpe-Adri cycling path, which is using an abandoned train line! Using this cycling path, we nicely made it to Chiusaforte without any road stress! :-) Also, we could enjoy some nice sights along the way, including Ponte Peraria and several tall waterfalls. In Chiusaforte, we then said "Good bye!" to the cycling path and entered Val Raccolana towards Sella Nevea further in the east. While it was not raining, the clouds were >>>

Through Val Resia to Moggio (from Bovec)

Dato:
21.10.2025
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
6:00t
Distanse:
46,0km

The plan for the third day of our four-days bike ride through the Julian Alps was to bike from Bovec to Moggio di Sotto via Val Resia. The weather forecast predicted rain throughout the day and it was right: it rained continuously. We first biked from Bovec down to Žaga, where we turned towards the west (and upwards again). Following the very nice mountain road towards the border between Slovenia and Italy, we enjoyed the fact that hardly any cars were on the same street. Instead, we got to see several fire salamanders that likely enjoyed the rain! :-) Before actually crossing over the border, we had to get over a small prelude saddle (where previously the Slovenian border control was?). From there, it was then a short stretch down to (and over) the Učja river. Once on the other, northern side, we eventually crossed the border >>>
