Geitanipa

Dato:
08.07.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
4,8km

We started from Langhelle, between Trengereid and Vaksdal, at the end of the paved (small and narrow) road, which winds up there from E16 near the fjord. We first walked up a little longer along the gravel road until the point, where it makes a sharp turn right, leading further up to Seterkokane. We then followed a forest trail that brought us further up (in southeastern direction) to the saddle between Trollaberget and Geitanipa. At about this saddle, we decided to not descend to the southern side, but instead to connect to Geitanipa, instead. While there was not really any path or trail to Geitanipa, we still managed to get there without major difficulties (Geitanipa is, in fact, a bit steep on its eastern side, so it is necessary to carefully choose a good spot for ascending to it). >>>

Summer evening on Lyderhorn

Dato:
03.07.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
4,6km

We took the car along road 557 towards Bjørndalen, where we parked right next to Bjørndalstjørna. We crossed the double-lane street (Lyderhornsveien) and found a narrow passage that led us up to Bjørndalsbakken. From there, we connected to Sildaberget and between houses 31 and 35 we found the narrow opening, which leads the path that brings one up the steep mountain-side there. Before actually ascending to Lyderhorn, we first crossed Skarpafjellet in the south of Lyderhorn. Once up the little top, there, one can enjoy some very nice views in all directions. In order to get further to Lyderhorn, we descended from Skarpafjellet on its northeastern side, avoiding the very steep side towards Grøvledalen. From the saddle, where also a power line is crossing, we then followed a path, which >>>

Meeting the North Atlantic at Skogsøya

Dato:
24.06.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,3km

We took the car from Bergen to the west and then further north to Øygarden. On Ona, right next to Kollsnes, we left road 561 and continued on road 228 towards Herdleværet. On Skogsøyna, just before crossing the bridge to Herdleværet, we parked the car and started to hike towards the west, following the northern rim of Skogsøyna. First, we were positively impressed about work that seemingly was done quite recently to further improve this trail, making it easier to avoid wet and/or muddy shoes (at least to a certain degree). Nice! :-) At the outer tip of Skogsøyna, we reached our goal for this day, Skoysøytua (some 50m above sea level and with nice views over the open Atlantic!). We explored the cliffs and watched the energetic ocean rumble against the rocks of Skogsøytua. We also >>>

Cala del Cau from Far de San Sebastia

Dato:
17.06.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
2,2km

I started my trip in Barcelona with the goal to see a little of the wild and nice Costa Brava. After some driving, I started to head for Far de San Sebastia, mostly because I expected some nice views from there. The car brought me all the way up to this little hill and I parked right next to the restaurant Far de San Sebastia. I then explored the hill-top with Torre de Guaita de San Sebastia, overlooking the Mediterranean sea and also large parts of the nearby land. I found a little path at the steep eastern side facing the sea and followed it in northern direction. After a little up and down along the steep mountain side, I got the idea that I could try to get down to the sea (and explore also the waters there!). Following some small tracks through the forest, I found a path that headed >>>

Løvstakken and Strandafjellet

Dato:
05.06.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,5km

We parked right above Litlavatet up in Fyllingsdalen and started our (usual) ascent to Løvstakken (first towards Ragnefjellet, passing by the little water fall appropriately called Fossen). Once on the heights, we followed the usual route towards Løvstakken (first eastwards, then in southern direction along the ridge). Soon thereafter we arrived at Løvstakken (quite some others there, too). From the top of Løvstakken, we followed the trail downwards (mostly in northern direction), which leads directly to Strandafjellet. Instead of following the main trail further downwards in the direction of Bergen, we did the short ascent to Strandafjellet and enjoyed some nice views there. We then took the same path again down, before then walking around Strandafjellet on its southern side, descending >>>

Dronninga on Askøy

Dato:
20.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
7,6km

We took the car from Bergen to Askøy and continued northwards on road #562 in the direction of Ravnanger. At Haugland, right after crossing over Loneelvi and then passing under a small bridge, we left the main road to Hauglandsmyra, where we parked at once. In order to get to Dronninga, we walked first along Hauglandsmyra (the one part of it, which first leads northwards, between houses on the left and some meadow on the right). This brought us to Rispeleitet, which eventually leads in eastern direction (then really towards Dronninga). At the very end of Rispeleitet (at Kolbeinsmyra) the paved road becomes a stone road (maybe not for regular cars), which we followed all to the end (repeatedly one also finds signs, leading the way towards Dronninga). Very close to the "top" of >>>

Gravdalsfjellet, Olsokfjellet, and Damsgårsfjellet

Dato:
16.04.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:15t
Distanse:
6,1km

We took the car to Laksevåg/Lyngbø and parked right at the beginning of Eliasmarken. From there, we started to walk; first up to Lyngbøveien and so further into Nygårdslien (and upwards this road). At the upper end of Nygårdslien, we connected to the hiking path, which starts/ends there. Quickly, we ascended (moderately steeply) to the height where the path starts to flatten out towards the saddle between Gravdalsfjellet (in the southwest) and Damsgårdsfjellet (in the northeast). At the point, where four paths meet, we turned right (into southwestern direction) and continued our ascent to Gravdalsfjellet. Shortly later, we arrived at the top of Gravdalsfjellet and enjoyed an all-around view from there. From there, we first walked into the direction of Viggohytten, but turned left >>>

Gaustadfjellet, Litlafjellet, Bårafjellet, Øyjordsfjellet

Dato:
14.04.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:45t
Distanse:
7,3km

With a very promising spring day ahead, we decided to try some new top(s) in the north of Meland, i.e., Gaustadfjellet and others. We took road E39 northwards from Bergen, crossed Nordhordlandsbrua, and connected then to the small road #245 that departs from the road to Frekhaug right after the bridge to Meland. We then followed this narrow road northwards until we arrived at Ådland. We parked, where Kyrkjesundvegen departs in northern direction. On the map, we had seen that approximately 200m south of this point, a path up to Gaustadfjellet should be possible to find---getting there, however, required a little bit of good orientation (and one more look at the map, actually). Once on this path, however, the ascent to Gaustadfjellet is straight-forward and quick. From the top of Gaustadfjellet, >>>

Veten i Åsane via Skagen

Dato:
13.04.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
9,4km

Inspired by a recent hike of a colleague , I decided for a tour up to Veten i Åsane today. I found the idea to include also Skagen i Åsane attractive and thus planned for a little round, accordingly. To start, I took the car to Åsane (along E39) and then, near IKEA, I connected to a very narrow, small road, which leads towards Dalabygda in the northwest of Langavatnet (where the old post-path starts to ascend between Høgstefjellet and Veten i Åsane). Next to the few houses there, a parking place has been built as a convenient starting point for hikers along the old post-path. In order to make the ascent to Skagen a little more interesting, I thought that I could try to go there via the smaller hilltops, which one can find between Langavatnet and Skagen, i.e., Glanten, Alteret, and Husaberget. From looking at the >>>

Wet Litlesotra (very wet!)

Dato:
25.03.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
8,5km

I took the car along road #555 towards the west from Bergen, crossing the Sotra-bridge to Litlesotra. There, I continued to Straume (where also the Sator Center is), and followed the small road #209 towards the north from there. I passed the places, where one could drive to Foldnes and to Anglavik, later, and arrived in a small place called Vågo shortly after. I left the car in Vågo and started my hike in southern direction. Very soon, I had to leave the path, which I had started on, and continued through the wild (as expected from studying the map in advance). The first (nearby) target was Storanipa, just south of Vågo. On its western side, there are steep cliffs, but ascending to it from any of the other directions is straight forward. Next, I had already planned to cross over (in >>>
