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

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 .

From Rotterdam to Haarlem

Datum:
09.11.2025
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
8:00h
Entfernung:
81,1km

Our plan for the day was to get to Haarlem (from Rotterdam) and given the promising weather forecast we decided to bike there. Starting relatively early from Rotterdam, our first intermediate goal was Delft, where we aimed at some nice breakfast. While we initially thought to cycle along the Schie, we instead ended up following a bike route in parallel to the highway between Rotterdam and Delft. This route was not as nice as the planned one, but it brought us to Delft relatively quickly. In Delft, we then cycled to the main square, where we enjoyed a nice breakfast, sitting outside in the sun. Next, we aimed at getting to the dunes in the north of Den Haag. Close to Scheveningen, we then entered the dunes park. From there, it was then a very nice bike ride along a fine bike path in parallel >>>

Rottemeren from/to Rotterdam

Datum:
08.11.2025
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
41,1km

We arrived with the water bus from Dordrecht near Erasmusbrug in Rotterdam and rented bikes on our way towards the center of Rotterdam. Given the pleasant autumn weather, we decided to take the bikes on a ride to Rottemeren. We first cycled to Kralingse Plas and then, via Rotterdam Alexander, to the Rotte a bit further north. Following the Rotte further northwards, we then cycled to Veerpont Bleiswijk, before turning around and cycling back to Rotterdam. Once back in Rotterdam, we first visited the Kunsthal, before later refilling some energies. All in all, a very nice day on the bike in Rotterdam! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Donaupark, first, and then towards Mauer

Datum:
06.11.2025
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
12:00h
Entfernung:
40,3km

I first biked to Austria Center Vienna for the conference, which I attended during these days. During the lunch break, I made a nice stroll through Donaupark right next to the conference center to catch some fresh air and some late autumn sun. After returning to Wien Landstrasse after the conference, my second goal of the day was to visit the southwest of Vienna. To get there, I biked via Margareten and along Edelsinnstrasse, before crossing over the railtracks for good to continue into the direction of Mauer. On my way back, I followed a similar route, just not descending into Margareten, again, but cycling along Wiedener Hauptstrasse instead. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Bike excursion to Lobau

Datum:
01.11.2025
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
34,8km

To refresh myself a little (before the next work session), I took the bike and made a quite excursion into Lobau, in the southeast of Vienna. I first biked into Prater and then over the Praterbrücke onto the Donauinsel, where I headed further towards Lobau in southeastern direction. After biking through Ölhafen Lobau, I eventually arrived at the nature reserve of Lobau. There, I explored a few paths, enjoying silence and nice nature. To get back, I took a different route, crossing over the Donau at the power station at Freudenau. This then brought me also to the rather peculiar Pagode right next to the Danube.

Jubiläumswarte and Mahnmal für die Opfer vom Spiegelgrund

Datum:
25.10.2025
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
32,8km

I used my bike to visit the northwest of Vienna, biking first there, before eventually making a round to/from Jubiläumswarte on foot. One the way back, I then passed by the Mahnmal für die Opfer vom Spiegelgrund (memorial commemorating the victims at Spiegelgrund) at night, seeing the 772 steles lit for the first time. Clearly, it is very moving to visit this memorial at night! Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Several other sites, including one at geschichtewiki.wien.gv.at and the one at gedenkstaettesteinhof.at remind of the grim history of Steinhof.
