Nice round around Småvatnet near Alvøen

Datum:
21.02.2026
Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
6,6km

There was an idea of spring in the air and so we decided to make a round around Småvatnet near Alvøen. We parked in the north, right next to Alvøveien, not far from the soccer fields there. To get south towards Småvatnet, we first crossed over Ospehaugen. Further south, we then started our round around the lake by exploring the small peninsular in the west of Slettebakksvika. Next was then to walk around Slettebakksvika and heading further south on the east-side of Småvatnet. This stretch is a bit interesting, since one has to find a way to get through (with quite some cliffs connecting more or less directly to Småvatnet). Since we had done this before, we knew that it could be done, and so it was without difficulties that we made it to Gullaksdalen. From there, we then followed >>>

Skiing Bildøybakken

Datum:
14.02.2026
Tourcharakter:
Tourenskilauf
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
5,2km

With new snow outside, we decided to take our skies and head towards Bildøybakken for an excursion into the snow. We parked at the lower end of the road which leads up to the dam of Bildøyvatnet, then following this road up to the dam. From there, we then ascended to Bildøyfjellet. Then, we continued across the heights of Bildøybakken (southwards to Vardafjellet). We then decided to connect to the southern end of Bildøyvatnet in order to cross it (on skies) south-to-north. This worked just fine and it did not take us all to long before we were back where we had started the afternoon. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Marmorøyen, Flatøyna, and Ulvøyna

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
5,0km

With everthing still frozen, we thought that it could work to simply walk over to Marmorøyen in Nordåsvatnet. We parked near Troldhaugen and approached the ice via Frants Beyers veg. While the ice on top of Nordåsvatnet indeed was thick and sturdy, it wasn't all trivial to get onto it -- due to the tides, the ice was broken up near the shore. One attempt to get onto the ice right at the beginning then ended up with breaking into the water right away (just with one leg). After finding a better spot, it then worked without problems. This little mishap in the beginning, however, resulted in the decimation of the walking team (from three down to two). Once on the ice, the next question was where a good "landing place" would be on Marmorøyen. Heading a bit outwards of Marmorsundet >>>

Ørnahaugen, then back across Gjeddevatnet

Datum:
01.02.2026
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
5,9km

Yet again we just wished to go for a short walk. We started into the direction of Knappen, but decided to aim northwards, instead, this time. Just walking along the streets around Bjørgedalen, we made it to Kjerreidvika. We then thought that we could use the wintery conditions to ascend to Ørnahaugen via its steep southeastern side. This worked out well. We then descended back down from Ørnahaugen towards the east (Sæleidet). We then thought that we could use the icy lake cover of Bjørndalsvatnet to get over to Elvareidet without disturbing the people living there. On the other side, we first tried to get up this rather narrow valley north of Elvareidet. Since we encountered too much ice there, however, we abandoned this plan. Instead, we then thought that it would be something >>>

Fanafjellet from Fana

Datum:
25.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:30h
Entfernung:
7,1km

We thought that all the frozen ground condition would be just right for an excursion to Fanafjellet (which on a regular day can be very wet, especially when walking around up there off-trail). We parked in Fana near Fanastølen and then started our hike with a short ascent to Marietoppen. While Marietoppen is just a small hill, it is actually interesting to find extended remains from WWII defense structures on its top. After this initial visit to Marietoppen, we then aimed to find a good way up to Fanafjellet. While we first considered checking an opportunity to do this "straight up" in the south of Marietoppen, we then decided that walking a small detour via Saganeset would bring us nicely up to a proper trail at Høgaberget. When near Bukkamyrane at about 175masl, we then followed >>>

Ørnafjellet and Lyderhorn from Nedberget

Datum:
24.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
7,6km

We aimed at some nice excursion, not too far out, and chose Ørnafjellet, i.e., the little sister or brother of Lyderhorn. To get there, we decided to park near Nedberget at Kjøkkelvik and hike up from there. The ascent through the forest was just fine, even though there was quite a bit of ice (especially in the rather narrow part before reaching the heights). Once up, we then started to surround Skåleviksvatnet in order to get over to Ørnafjellet and ascend it from the north. After visiting Ørnafjellet, we continued our little round on the heights to Skjenafjellet. There, we decided that including Lyderhorn, also, was just the right thing to do. After visiting Lyderhorn, then, we just walked back down to Nedberget to complete the hike. Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the >>>

Via Melkeplassen to Bergen

Datum:
22.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
9,1km

We headed for a meeting in central Bergen and since we had some extra time on our hands (or maybe better: on our feet?), we decided to just walk. Crossing over Melkeplassen, we just made it nicely in time for our meeting. See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Visiting the Fantoft stave church on a foggy day

Datum:
18.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
0:30h
Entfernung:
0,5km

Given the particular foggy day, which did not really invite to any extended outing, we decided to quickly visit the stave church at Fantoft. See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Skogsøyna on a nice winter day

Datum:
17.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
5,3km

With a friend, visiting from abroad, we chose Skogsøyna as a very nice outing option. Following the main trail, which by now has been upgraded in multiple places, we soon reached Skogsøytua at the southwestern end of the island. After walking around the spectacular cliff area out there, we then walked basically the same (main) trail back. As always very nice to visit Skogsøyna!

Round around Stora Krokatjørna

Datum:
11.01.2026
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
6,6km

We first thought that this "only" would be a very short excursion in the neighborhood (and so we stepped onto the small peninsula in the west of Sælevatnet for a short round), but then we still decided to make a slightly longer round nonetheless, leaving Varden in northwards direction in order to get into Kanadaskogen. At Stora Krokatjørna, we decided to use the icy condition to walk around the lake (instead of crossing over Langaheia as usually). We then turned around, heading towards Hesjaholten. At last, instead of just walking back along some roads, we decided to pass by frozen Gjeddevatnet to get back to Varden. There, we also used the frozen condition to pass by Myratjørna, which usually is not recommended (too wet). Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related >>>
