Lund city walk

Date:
05.11.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
2:00h
Distance:
7.0km

I had to visit Lund and decided to use some evening time for a short city walk. Starting from the main train station in Lund, I first headed into Lilla Fiskaregatan. After crossing Stortorget into Skomakaregatan, I "circled back" to Lunds domkyrka. I then headed north along Kyrkogatan and Bredgatan, before following Getingevägen to IDEON Science Park. From there, I eventually walked back to the main train station, heading towards the Botanical garden, first, before then turning west and towards the train station. Given that all this was done in the dark, I only got an approximate impression of Lund, this time. See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:

Knappen

Date:
29.09.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
0:45h
Distance:
4.7km

Instead of doing something larger and longer, we "ended up" making a short excursion to Knappen, only. Short, but nice! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen . Web page UT.no from the Norwegian Trekking Association recommends another hike to Knappen .

Nancy, Zinnerbach

Date:
21.09.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
1:30h
Distance:
4.2km

I wished to explore the area of Nancy, not far from Kraslice/Graslitz. I parked at the moderately large parking lot in Nancy and then walked -- first along the road, then up the forest road that extends in parallel to Zinnerbach. Once "up on the heights", or so, I turned around, also since I did not have more time, and walked back the same route. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Evening Ormhelleren

Date:
28.08.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
1:30h
Distance:
2.5km

Given a likely rain-free evening, we headed out to Ormhelleren in the south of Rongøyna in Øygarden. We first explored the area around Hesthaugen before then testing the waters in the bay southeast of Hesthaugen. On the way back, an attempt to cross over Rongaloftet failed due to a lack of time, the trail leading towards the east (instead of the north), and the absence of a willingness for some evening bush war...

Wet Arboretet

Date:
24.08.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
3:00h
Distance:
3.7km

Despite the rather wet weather forecast, we still embarked on a visit to Arboretet in Milde. It was nice (and [very] wet). :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Short visit to Lyseklosteret

Date:
28.07.2024
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
0:30h
Distance:
0.2km

After our exploration of Lysøya , we decided to also pay Lyseklosteret a short visit. All in all, this was no more than parking right next to the ruins, walking around them for a while, and then returning to the car -- always nice to look at Lyseklosteret, but not much physical activity! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .
