Løvstien (southern part)

Dato:
08.12.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
3,9km

We started at the southern-most end of Løvstien (at street Øvre Kråkenes and near Leknes Containerservice AS) and followed Løvstien from there, passing by Lerkhaugen in its north and Lisahaugen (basically surrounding it). Near Kopesteinen, we enjoyed a new stretch of Løvstien, which must have built quite recently, and followed it until where was no continuation (without stepping into the dark forest without a path). Instead, we turned around and walked everything back, enjoying a really nice evening, this way. :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Vasslifjellet via Soleibakkane

Dato:
25.11.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
10,8km

We took the car to Sædalen, behind Nattlandsfjellet, and parked it at the lower end of Indre Sædal. From there, we first followed street Sædalssvingane upwards (in northeastern direction, towards Løypingsberget). But instead of following the road all the way to its highest point, we on the eastern side of the valley and ascended (mostly without a path there) further up there. Shortly before reconnecting with the road (at its highest point), we aligned with the water that is coming down from Søre Gløvrevatnet. We climbed further up, first on the water's eastern side, before then crossing it and ascending to the ridge that leads further up from there. There, we also found a nice path, which was easy and straight-forward to follow further upwards. Soon after, we came to Søre Gløvrevatnet >>>

Knappen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
5,7km

To get a little bit of fresh air, we made a quick hike over Knappen. Instead of returning via Knappetjørna and Vassteigen, we descended via Hesthaugen and returned along Sælenvatnet back to Varden.

Bogafjellet from Reinsvegen

Dato:
18.11.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:45t
Distanse:
11,3km

Even though the weather, with very low hanging clouds, did not look all to promising for a hike somewhere higher up, I still decided to give it a try and headed south and towards Fusa (via Osøyro, then taking the ferry from Hatvik to Senjaneset). Even on the ferry across Fusafjorden I wondered, whether it was that good an idea at all (the impression which the sun made, breaking through the low-hanging clouds, however, was definitely worth the view!). After arriving in Fusa, I quickly turned right from the main road and followed road 122 towards Strandvik (via Vinnes). Before actually getting to the "center" of Strandvik, I turned left and headed towards Reinsvegen. Passing by Kvåle, I drove up the valley until a spot near Snøhaugen. From there, I had planned to hike a round >>>

Stendafjellet at about sunset

Dato:
17.11.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
3,4km

Even though it was already a bit late (for November in Bergen), there still was a chance for a short hike. From the little parking place near the previous train station at Stend (a bit north of Fana), I headed directly into the forest (in northern direction), not following the gravel road that also starts from there (a bit further east). After only a few steps, I got to a little pond (seemingly hold back by a little dam) and chose to surround it on its western side. In order to get further up, I crossed a little saddle north of the pond and ascended through the forest in northeastern direction, following one of apparently several possible routes. Once a bit further up, the terrain flattened out (a bit) and I continued in northern direction, heading towards Stendaåsen. After reaching the >>>

Løvstakken for some fresh air

Dato:
04.11.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
3,1km

Due to a lack of more time, we this time "only" made a quick hike up Løvstakken. We parked right next to Litlavatnet in Fyllingsdalen and ascended via the main path to Løvstakken from there (first towards Ravnefjellet, then around and up to Løvstakken). After a short stop at the top (in strong winds!), we returned along the same path. Always good to at least get a bit of fresh air! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Loddo and Skaftafjellet

Dato:
06.10.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:30t
Distanse:
15,2km

We took the ferry from Krokeide to Hufthammar and drove than along Huftarøy (road 154). Right next to Åkyllaren, there is a well-marked parking place for those, who wish to hike up to Loddo. We followed the main track (in southeastern direction) until we found a sign leading us on a separate track, heading north. Later, it turned out that we had left the main track too early and thus were a little bit too far west (as compared to the "red" track up to Loddo). Near Hestatjørna, we also managed to misinterpret another sign, which would have lead us back to the "red" track and up to Loddo. Instead, we followed the path further north, wondering more and more, where we had ended up! :-) After a while, we found another sign, which promised us a connection to the "blue" >>>

Vemånen, Hovden, etc.

Dato:
30.09.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
7,4km

On this day with a "mixed" weather prediction, we decided to do a smaller hike, still trying something new. We parked near the Unneland Kultur og Aktivitetshus at Unnelandsvegen 253, 5268 Haukeland, and walked from there. Immediately after crossing the bridge over the stream that comes down from Seterdalen (as well as from Rambjørgsgjelet), heading towards Haukelandsvatnet (at Nesvika), we found the path to Vemånen (first passing by Rodalshaugen). This is a very easy to find and nice to walk path, following the ridge (mostly in northern direction) up to Vemånen. Near the top of Vemånen, one gets out of the forest and can enjoy some nice views, in particular over Haukeland and Haukelandsvatnet. The best viewpoint, however, is not at the "top" of Vemånen, but a few >>>

Algrøyna, Barmaneset, Langtrotten -- wow!

Dato:
23.09.2018
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
6,4km

We parked the cars just before entering the main village on Algrøyna and started to hike from there. It had just poored down substantially, but as we started hiking the weather improved and soon we saw some sun, also! :-) We first followed the "main road", Nordre Øyavegen, in a longer swing to the right/north, before turning left, continuing on Kongvikvegen. Before the end of this road and about where Kungvika has its western-most point, we left the road, walking around a farm house right next to the road, in order to connect to the southern side of Kungvika (and eventually to Barmaneset). Once on the "middle" peninsula of Algrøyna, we followed a path with blue marks towards the west. This path leads out on Barmaneset and to Krabbakeila at its western end. Enjoying >>>

Hiking the southern part of Strøno

Dato:
08.09.2018
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
6,1km

There was not really time for a longer hike and also it was expected that some rather heavy rain may come in the early evening. Therefore, we decided to do something smaller, i.e., a hike over Strøno south of Bergen (and west of Osøyro). We passed Fanafjellet with our car and turned right (westwards) at the military camp at Ulven. Following the street, we soon crossed over the bridge at Hillershavn to Strøno. Once on Strøno, we followed the southern street to Sørstrøno. From there, we started hiking, first following a major gravel road which passes by Strønevågen and Selvågspollen (in their northwest). Our first goal was Husfjellet, a little hill that stands a bit for its own in the very south of Strøno. We first continued on the gravel road, making a half-circle around the hill >>>
