Lyderhorn via Skarpafjellet

Datum:
06.12.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,5km

Aiming at some nice but not too long weekend hike, we decided to visit Lyderhorn (again). The plan was to ascend via Skarpafjellet in the south of Lyderhorn. We parked at Bjørndalen and tried an as direct as possible (off-trail) ascent to Skarpafjellet, first. As soon as we had left road Sildaberget (right next to Lyderhornsveien), we immediately found ourselves (not unexpectedly, though) in rather steep terrain, which required a bit of hand help to make it up between the rocks. As soon as we were up to about 90masl, however, progress became easier and rather straight-forward -- all the way to the top of Skarpafjellet. This southern flank of Skarpafjellet is actually very nice, offering some nice views over Bjørndalen and Bjørndalspollen. From Skarpafjellet, we then followed the main >>>

A dragon on Knappen?

When the winter days are short, it's sometimes no more than "just" making a quick (but still nice!) round across Knappen! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Kubrekka from/to Sandven

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
3,9km

We had time for a relatively short walk but still were interested in exploring opportunities to do something new. Expecting chances for some low-standing November sun from the southwest, we thought that hiking up to Kubrekka from Sandven right next to Kalandsvatnet could be a reasonable option (yes, when "digging deeper", we read in Harald's trip report that the top had no views and is of no interest to normal hikers; but then: are we normal hikers? :-)). The main idea was to go up via Stemmedalen, then cross over Kubrekka from the northwest to the southeast, before then walking down Høgerinden in parallel to Tjørnadalen to get back to Sandven. When aiming for Stemmedalen from Osvegen, however, we faced a sign informing us that someone would not like us to proceed further towards Stemmedalen along >>>

Liatårnet from Fjellavegen via Fjellasåta

Datum:
12.10.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
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

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
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 >>>

Lundåsane from Hausdalen

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
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

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
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

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
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! >>>

Entfernung:
94,7km

It looked like a promising Saturday and I wished to do another bike-hiking excursion to see a few places that I had not seen so far. I started by cycling via Straume to Søreide and then further into the direction of Lagunen. After cycling around Apeltunvatnet in its south, I connected to Tranevatnet and from there, after passing under E39, along Birkelandsvatnet to Dyngelandsvegen. This road brought me then to Helldal, where I eventually joined Hardangervegen to pass by Grimevatnet and then Søylevatnet. Cycling along this rather much used (and rather narrow) road is not exactly fun for the cyclist and one should only do it, when prepared for a bit of stress. Leaving Hardangervegen, I then continued along Unnelandsvegen, south of Haukelandsvatnet. At Storeklubben, I made my first short >>>
