Førdesveten from Kleppe

Datum:
27.12.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
8,1km

Yes, quite some wind was predicted, but still the weather seemed too good to not go out for a short while. After enjoying a nice round around Dyrdalsvatnet the day before, we decided that it should be Førdesveten south in Øygarden this day. We parked in Kleppe and took the route via Høylandsfjellet, Midtfjellet, and Lyngfjellet up to Veten. The higher we got, the more we experienced the rather strong winds! Near the top, we then took a short break in the still relatively new Dagsturhytten before heading back down via Ramnaberget and Kleppaksla. On the way down from Kleppaksla, we found a trail with pink markers in the southwest of Fenadalen, which brought us down to Sundvegen not far from where we had parked.

Slettegga, Austefjellet, and Hausdalshorgi

Datum:
26.12.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
13,3km

We expected a nice winter day and started a bit earlier than usually to exploit the short daylight period as well as possible. After driving up to Bontveit and parking there right next to the saddle, we started first hiking northwards along Bontveitvegen. Very soon, however, we turned left to explore Åsane (in parallel to Bontveitvegen). While it was fully possible to traverse Åsane, also without any trail, it occasionally got a touch of a nice xMas bush war. At Langemyrskaret, we reconnected with Bontveitvegen, having a nice chat with another hiker, who had enjoyed the rising sun from Slettegga. Then, instead of following the standard trail up to Slettegga, we included another small exploration: Halvardshaugen in the northwest of Bjørnstølåsen, from which we enjoyed some really nice >>>

Løvstakken from/to Bergen

Datum:
25.12.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
6,7km

Even though it was a bit late, already, we still wished to make a quick round somewhere near. Doing Løvstakken from the Bergen-side seemed just right (and so it was). We used the gravel road that starts from Løvstien just above Solheimslien to get up. On Løvstakken, we met an unexpected sight: most of one of the two masts was missing from its top -- what's happening? :-) To get back down, we chose to cross over Ravnefjellet and then use Løvstien to get back around to the Bergen-side. Our timing was just right to return before it got all dark. Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Round around Sælenvatnet with Barhaugen

Datum:
20.12.2025
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
8,3km

We wished to get some fresh air, or so, and thus headed out to a short round around Sælenvatnet. The first goal was to walk around Bondegården along the northern shore of Sælenvatnet (even though it gets quite a bit wet on the southeastern side of Bondegården). After crossing the bridge north of Øyrane, we then continued along Sælenveien, before finding a connection up to Stokkedalen. There, we then scaled the rather steep hillside up to the upper stretch of Rekdalsveien. From there, it was then over to Barhaugen and back down towards Straumshaugen. While all of this round was not really spectacular, we did catch some nice winter light. :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

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?

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung

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

Datum:
23.11.2025
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 >>>

Exploring Amsterdam by foot

Datum:
11.11.2025
Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
9,2km

Our plan was first to visit the Van Gogh museum of Amsterdam. Enjoying a nice autumn day, we walked there from the hotel. The musuem, however, was sold out -- yes -- and thus we made a new plan: exploring some additional corners of Amsterdam by foot. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .
