Grouse Grind near Vancouver

Datum:
24.10.2019
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
4,5km

Being in Vancouver, Canada, one certainly feels invited to do at least one hike and a good start is to do the Grouse Grind Trail, which leads steeply upwards from the parking lot at the lower station of the cable car "Grouse Mountain Skyride", not far from Capilano Lake. The Grouse Grind web page mentions that you make approximately 850 height-meters (in less than 3 kilometers of length) and that this is done over more than 2800 stairs! Clearly, if you push than this ascent is a good exercise (and many do that, according to the web page). The trail is well marked and in a regular spacing, the hiker/runner is informed about the progress managed so far. Once at the upper end of the Ground Grind Trail, one reaches the upper station of the cable car. Since it is not allowed to go the Grouse Grind Trail >>>

Hausdalshorgi (and Austefjellet) from Hausdalen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
11,0km

After completing a rather adventurous hike up and down Møsnuken the day before, we were ready for a new adventure! :-) For years, already, we were wondering whether one could hike Hausdalshorgi from "the bottom of" Hausdalen, also. After studying the map carefully, we decided to give this a try. It had appeared quite doable to hike up the southwestern ridge of Hausdalshorgi, at least from the tree line at about 350mosl. The major remaining question then was about how to get up to this point (N60°20′05″, E5°31′15″). The maps suggests one approach via Askestølen (hiking up a forest road from Samdal first and then continuing in the direction of Bjøllebotn). Since this would require a bit of hiking on roads (first along Hausdalsvegen, then along Lundagotnene), we wondered whether a more direct approach from Hausdalsvegen >>>

Møsnuken from Gåssand

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
12,5km

Møsnuken is very much worth a visit, not only for those who live in or around Osøyro. Usually, one would approach Møsnuken from the west (via Tyssdalen), or via Borgafjellet from Os. Less common is the approach from the north, i.e., from Gåssand. Some longer time back, we already tried this once, but failed (we had ended up at the northern side of Krokavatnet and did not see any reasonable way to get over it). So we decided to give this adventure another try! :-) Taking E39 southwards from Bergen, we turned left in Søfteland (where there's a sign towards Gåssand). As soon as one crosses Oselva one continues on the relatively narrow road Gåssandvegen in northeastern direction. After passing through a small valley (Lona) between Raudlifjellet (on the left) and Åsen (on the right), >>>

Sauafjellet from Rolvsvåg

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
8,3km

For a long time, we had set Sauafjellet aside, keeping it for "another day". Today, we decided to give Sauafjellet a try. To make this a proper hike, we discussed several variants, eventually arriving at the plan to approach Sauafjellet from its south (from Rolvsvåg). Driving northwards on the western side of Samnangerfjorden (following road 579), we parked where Setravegen meets Solbjørgvegen and started our hike along Setravegen until we had passed the industrial area at Rolvsvåg. There we found a forest road that rounds Raudsteinshaugen before then leading northwards into the direction Øykjadalen. At about 110mosl, where the forest road ascends on the eastern side of the valley, we left the forest road and continued upwards to reach the ridge in the east of Øykjadalen, >>>

Quick round-trip over Løvstakken

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
1:15h
Entfernung:
3,3km

Aiming at something short, we decided to visit Løvstakken. To make this a bit interesting, we decided to park near Storavatnet at Krohnegården and then aim for the "diretissima" to Løvstakken (from Rosenlundveien). The new piece of this connection was the part between Storavatnet/Krohnegården, leading up to Rosenlundveien directly from Storavatnet (via Bustingen). Trying this connection for the first time, we found out that it's easy to find and straight-forward to follow: after first stepping up along the little road, which is serving two or three houses up there, one finds a trail at about 175mosl, which then connects to Rosenlundveien just a few meters from where the "diretissima" trail to Løvstakken starts. Definitely a good find, easing the hiking of a short >>>

Veten i Åsane

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:45h
Entfernung:
9,5km

Since time was limited, we chose a hike not too far from Bergen and not long a hike, neither. Since we had talked about Veten (Veten i Åsane), we decided that we would hike it, once again. To add a bit of variation, however, we chose to approach it from the north, this time. We thus took the car from Bergen via Åsane along the E39 (into the direction of Knarvik). Before approaching the bridge, north of Åsane, however, we turned right onto road 5346 that leads to Steinstø. Shortly after, we turned left again and onto a narrow road that brings one to Hordvik. There, near Hordvik kindergarden, we parked and started our hike (in southern direction). We first followed a small road, right next to a little stream that comes down from Veten (on its eastern side), until we crossed E39 by >>>

Brøknipa from Skaftå

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
6:15h
Entfernung:
15,7km

We took the car from Bergen to Osterøy (first along E16, then across the bridge). Right after crossing the bridge, we turned right (into the direction of Bruvik). Following Bruvikvegen, we soon after arrived at Skaftå, where we parked next to the road. We then walked a few meters in order to get started with our hike up to Brøknipa. When checking the information board at the beginning of the hike (right next to Bruvikvegen), we detected a dotted line that suggested that one could hike up directly to Utegardsnipa (instead of first going along Skaftådalen to Stølane before then turning back and up to the ridge that leads to Utegardsnipa). We thus adapted our plans to try out this route. We started "the usual way" (towards Skaftådalen), but at about 100mosl we found a little >>>

Gråsida from Gjelle to Hornaberg

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
6:45h
Entfernung:
19,6km

Expecting nice September weather, we planned for a slightly longer hike, crossing Gråsida near Voss from one side to the other. In order to arrange for this, we agreed to coordinate this hike with friends, who would do the same hike, but in the other direction. The idea was to then exchange car keys at the meeting point so that each party could pick up a car at the end of the hike and drive back to Bergen. Our direction meant to start at Gjelle (south of Vossavangen) and to cross Gråsida towards Hornaberget in Bergsdalen. According to the plan, our friends started at Hornaberget and aimed for Gjelle, where we had parked our car (we had first taken road #5394 from Vossavangen towards Gjernes, before then driving up Giljavegen until we parked at about 285mosl, where a gravel road starts >>>

Blægja

Tourlänge:
7:00h
Entfernung:
10,1km

After day #5 of our five days hike through Breheimen , we decided to a "bonus hike". After driving mostly westwards from Breheimen, we stayed in Førde for the night (our goal was to hike up Blægja the next day). The next morning, after driving further westwards from Førde, following road #609 along the southern coast of Førdefjorden, we parked between Hestvika and Rørvika near an information board, right next to the road. After walking down the road for a short stretch, we easily found the trail-head, leading southwards from the road. After first following a forest road for a short distance, the trail leaves to the right and into the forest (once you find it, it's then easy to follow). The path leads upwards, through the forest, staying on the eastern side of a valley, where water from Nipevatnet and Tobbedalsvatnet >>>

Breheimen, day 5: from Stølsdalen back to Skjolden

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
14,1km

After day #4 of our five days hike through Breheimen , we continued from Stølsdalen with the goal to get to Turtagrø. We first descended along Øvre Liagrø to get down into the valley (down to about 850mosl), before then ascending again on the other side (towards Skålabotnskaret). The first stretch upwards is interesting as it is quite steep and leading through a narrow valley, before one gets out and into Nedre Liagrø. From there, it's then nicely upwards until one gets to Skålabotnskaret at about 1340mosl. There, we decided to deviate from the marked trail in order to include Nosafjellet, also. Following the ridge west of the marked trail, we easily got close to Nosafjellet and also the final ascent was non-difficult (one needs to look a little to find a good spot). On the top of Nosafjellet, we enjoyed excellent views in all >>>
