Exploring Ytrebygda a little more

Datum:
24.07.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
27,8km

To get some fresh air in the nice weather, I embarked on a short bike trip with a few small walking bits. I first explored Storåsen on Dolvikhaugene, just to find the "actual top" to be a bit too much within the houses around it. I then visited Skranevatnet in the southwest of Feråsen, which was a nice surprise. Next, I explored Storasåta in the north of Ytrebygsvegen. When approached from the north/northeast, one can actually find a proper trail that leads up to this small hill. Thereafter, I paid Lilandshaugen a short visit, which offers quite some nice views across the airport of Bergen. I improvised my way up, just to then find out that actually there's a convenient road (Lilandsvegen) that leads up to the vista-point. After biking around Lilandshaugen, I then checked >>>

Around Løvstakken (and up to it, too)

Datum:
15.06.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
22,9km

We combined two ideas: Cycle along Løvstien and visit Løvstakken. We started at Varden and biked around Sælevatnet, continuing then along Straumeveien until we came to Bøneset. There we crossed under the main road to then ascend towards Storahugen and further to Kråkenes. Following road Øvre Kråkenes, we got to the start point of Løvstien (on its southern end). We then biked along Løvstien, passing by Lerkhaugen and Lisahaugen, until we were close to Grønnestølen. At about (5.3307E/60.3549) we then parked our bikes at the side of Løvstien, where also a trail from Grønnestølstunet comes up. From there, we then started our ascent towards Løvstakken, starting in southwestern direction (up towards a small saddle that would bring us over and into "Dalen"). While one >>>

Exploring some hills near Vadmyra

Datum:
01.06.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
30,4km

After a relatively calm day, there were still a couple of hours to spend outside. The plan was to explore the area around Vadmyra between Storavatnet in the west and Loddefjord in the east. I took the bike along Bjørgeveien and then via Bjørndalsbrotet across Hetlevikstraumen to leave it at Haakonsvernveien, south of Hetlevikåsen. I found a trail that leads up into the direction of Vadmyrahallen (right under the power line). Once up and close to Vadmyrahallen, I turned left in order to make it up to Hetlevikåsen (without finding a trail, though). From Hetlevikåsen, I continued further northwards to find a way up to Høyvikåsen. The western flank of Høyvikåsen is a steep cliff and I first got a bit too far down. A bit of back-tracking, however, brought me back up and further north >>>

Løvstakken from Lerkhaugen

Datum:
10.03.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
23,6km

We took our eBikes around Bønes and left them behind near Langeholmen. From there, we first ascended to Lerkhaugen, before continuing into the direction of Lisahaugen (we did not include the "top" of Lisahaugen, though). After following a short stretch of Løvstien, we followed the ridge upwards that also leads to Mindebakken. Instead of stepping all the way up to the "top" of Mindebakken, however, we continued further northwards into the direction of Løvstakken. Kind of "half way up" between Dalen on the right (east) and the "top ridge" to Løvstakken on the left (west), we aimed at a minor trail up to Løvstakken (ascent from the southeast). After stepping through a bit of vegetation at about 300 mosl, we soon found the trail and followed it >>>

Gravdalsfjellet from Løvås

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
12,5km

We took our eBikes and cycled to Løvås, first. From the end of Løvåsveien, we then aimed at Eikhaugen as our first intermediate hiking goal. We stayed on the eastern side of the small valley (between Eikelia in the west and Eikhaugen in the east) and ascended to Eikhaugen via the small ridges south of it. From Eikhaugen, we then continued to Tøshaugen, a little bit further north, and from there to Fyllingsnipa, yet a short bit further north. The approach to Fyllingsnipa from the south is a bit steep, but not really a problem. From Fyllingsnipa, we then continued along a proper trail to Gravdalsfjellet, passing by Viggohytten on our way up. From Gravdalsfjellet, we then continued towards Lyngbø and down to the northwestern end of Nipetjørna. After crossing over the little dam that >>>

Eikelisteinen on Eikelifjellet

Datum:
25.11.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,5km

We started on our eBikes, first riding north into Fyllingsdalen, and then to Spelhaugen. At the northern end of Spelhaugen, we left our bikes behind, and continued on foot. Instead of following the main route (up the gravel road, into the direction of Tennebekk), we turned right "at once" (into the direction of Lurane in the northeast of Spelhaugen). Even there, we decided that we were up to choosing a quite steep route up (without a trail). Quite soon, we had made some height meters and, turning around, we could enjoy some nice views across Spelhaugen. Once on the heights, we traversed over to the southern end of Eikelia. Instead of following the more usual route (first northwards on the western side of Eikelifjellet's western cliff), we went around the wet area in the south >>>

Lyderhorn from Loddefjord

Datum:
18.11.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
15,0km

To get some fresh air on this Saturday, we took our eBikes and biked to Loddefjord. In the west of Skarpafjellet, we took a side road up to the transformer station (west of Grøvledalen). From there we followed the trail up to the saddle in the north of Skarpafjellet, following the trail towards Lyderhorn from there. For the ascent to Lyderhorn, we chose the route via Små Lyderhorn, while we then descended along the trail a bit further in the east. Once down from Lyderhorn, again, we basically followed the same trail back to our bikes that we had taken up, first. Always nice to make a trip to Lyderhorn! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Lyderhorn and also web page WestCoastPeaks.com provides useful information about Lyderhorn and Ørnafjellet .

Exploring the north of Maria Island

Datum:
09.11.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
38,3km

With one more day "to go", we decided to also include a trip to Maria Island, even though it not really was en route to Hobart. We stayed overnight in Triabunna, just a walking distance from the ferry quay. The next morning, we took the first ferry to Maria Island. Even though we had not booked any bikes in advance, we still hoped that we could get two bikes for the day anyway. Thus, after a mandatory short introduction to Maria Island, right after our arrival, we first headed for the bike rental in Darlington. Luckily, they weren't yet out of bikes, renting two of them out to us. :-) And this indeed was very nice -- Maria Island has quite a bit to offer and if one only has one day, then bridging distances between sights is definitely much more convenient per bike. After making >>>

Accidental Stemhaugen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
20,2km

The primary goal of this trip was to just do a bit of shopping! :-) Once on my bike, however, I immediately thought that making a short detour, first, would be good. I thus started along Bjørgeveien and headed northwards towards Bjørndalen. South / southeast of Lyderhorn, I then connected to Liavatnet. As I came towards the northern end of Liavatnet, I thought that this was maybe my chance to include a short visit to Stemhaugen! :-) North of the dam that holds back Liavatnet, I thus left my bike behind and found my way (rather "way") up to Stemhaugen via its northern ridge (no trail, steep, but not difficult). I then crossed over the top of Stemhaugen, enjoying some nice views down to Liavatnet and over to Lyderhorn. On my way down (still in southern direction), I made it >>>

Bike-hiking Skavdalsfjellet (and some additional hills)

Datum:
23.07.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
43,6km

Due to some unfortunate illness, this excursion was without the usual company. The idea was to first ride my eBike to a suitable starting point and then do a hike from there. Also, I thought to make a hike, which we quite likely would not do together (parts of the planned hike were predicted to be more like a bush war than anything else*), ending up at the area in the northeast of Myrdalsvatnet with its smaller (and honestly speaking also not terribly exciting) hills (Kattuglehaugane, Barkahaugane, Kattuglefjellet, and Preståsen). I also thought to visit two small hills in Skjold (Skjoldhøgda and Storåsen), since they were along my route to Myrdalsvatnet (and since I thought that I'd never visit them otherwise anyway). Biking around Søråsen, I made my way to Skjold. Finding a good route >>>
