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 >>>

Gjenekletten and Søre Sandknappen on Blomøyna

Datum:
19.06.2023
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
7,3km

We were up for another trip to Øygarden and chose Blomøyna for a short hike. We left Bergen towards the west and turned right (northwards) on Sotra near Kolltveit. We then followed road #561 until we passed Rong and arrived at Blomøyna via the bridge over Ulvsundet. We then parked right next to road Blomøyvegen (south of Søre Sæle). From there, we first walked along the road (northwards) for a bit (until we had walked around Blomvatnet on our left). There, at Blom, we then left the road towards the right (north) in order to find a connection to Gjenekletten. We first found a proper trail, leading to house #255. Before getting there, we then left this trail and crossed over a little ditch in the northwest of this house. Further north, however, we couldn't see any nice continuation >>>

Gulltjørna from Risnes

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
6,6km

We liked the idea to paying Gulltjørna another visit and we also liked the idea to do it, again, from the north. Following E16 into the east of Bergen, we left the main road near Romslo in order to connect to the old, narrow road that would bring us closer to Risnes. We found a spot where we could park alongside the road just a short stretch before actually getting all the way to Risnes. From there, we walked first for a short stretch along the road in order to get to our starting point of the actual hike. Right next to the bridge over the stream that comes down there through Risnes, we saw that one could use the steps of the water processing building there to get a bit further up (and away from the road). Where the stairs end, however, one needs to revert to actual hiking (there it's >>>

Biking around Hordnesskogen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
31,8km

With also the other bike repaired, we headed for a new biking-round around Nordåsvatnet. Again, we started our joint ride near the light rail station at Kristianborg, heading south (into the direction of Nesttun). This time, we surrounded Kristianborgvannet on the other, eastern side, though. Following the main bike route southwards, we eventually ended up in Rådalen. There, we decided that we would bike around Hordnesskogen in its south. Afte first following Rådalen further south (to the north of the school at Stend), we then turned right and onto Hordesvegen. Near house #202 along Hordnesvegen, we then came to a parking opportunity for those, who wish to start into Hordnesskogen from the south there. There, we headed into Hordnesskogen (in northwestern direction) for a few hundred >>>

Round around Ono

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
9,3km

While checking for new places in Øygarden that we had not visited so far, we found Ono and decided to make a hike there. After driving first westwards out of Bergen (towards Sotra), we then turned right (in northern direction) near Kolltveit, following then road #561. At Rong, we then turned left (westwards, again) in order to get over to Ono (passing the school of Rong along Svartevikvegen). After crossing two small bridges, we had arrived at Ono. There, we parked "at once" next to the road Onevegen. The southern part of Ono is well marked for hikers -- especially those, who wish to visit Dethloffhytta in the southwest of Ono. We followed first this main trail (in southwestern direction) until we crossed over the inner end of Stekkane. On the other, southern side, we then >>>

Biking around Nordåsvatnet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
25,0km

We had a bike to pick up and wished to ride a little round -- not at the least to also see that it was functioning as well as expected. We started the joint ride at the bike shop near the light rail station at Kristianborg, heading first southwards along Kanalveien and then following the track of the no longer existing railway into the direction of Nesttun. At the church of Skjold, we then turned right and cycled down to Skjoldbukta along Harald Skjolds veg. From there, we then cycled up to Nordåsvegen, which we then followed "all around" Nordåsen. On the south, we then descended to Steinsvikvegen. Following Steinsvikvegen around Steinsviken and Søviken, we connected to Søreide and from there further northwards to Sandeidet. All in all, a nice bike ride! :-) See also the >>>

Gullsteinen from Varden

Datum:
28.05.2023
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
7,8km

We wished to get some fresh air and thus headed for Gullsteinen (from Varden). We first descended from Varden to Sælevatnet, before then surrounding Bondegården in its north. Via Ture Nermans vei we then connected to Rekdalsveien, which we then followed "all the way up" to the point, where one can step down some stairs to the sports area in Fjellsdalen. We then stepped up Hattedalen to get to Bråtet. From there, we then started our ascent to Gullsteinen. While one of us found a way (more a "way"!) up to Knultrane, the other one continued along the gravel road to Nils Langhellesvei (where we met, again, then). From there, it was then up via the southern ridge to Gullsteinen, mostly following the nice trails along this ridge. From the top of Gullsteinen, however, >>>

Rindafjellet from Gåssand (wow!)

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
8:00h
Entfernung:
17,0km

We expected a nice Sunday and headed out for a special "project": Rindafjellet from Gåssand! This clearly became a bit of an adventure and (quite) a bit of a challenge, also. It may be good to read the following before possibly retracing our hiking track (the hike was very nice, yes, but also a bit long and very steep up to Rindafjellet!). We drove south from Bergen (along E39 into the direction of Os) and took the small road that leads to Gåssand, after all. Before actually coming to the south end of Ytsta Raudlivatnet, however, we parked at the relatively large parking spot near Hatlelia. From there, we then first walked further along Gåssandvegen, crossing Nordelva north of Gåssand. At the other side of the bridge, we turned left and followed a track across Nauslia that >>>

Ankerhytten from Sandviken

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
11,1km

We somehow decided to go a round near Bergen and thus took the bus to Sandviken. After first walking up to Fjellveien, we continued along it to get to Permisjonsstien. This brought us up to Sandviksbatteriet, where we enjoyed the views over Byfjorden. Next on the agenda was to get over to Munkebotn, cross over the stream that runs out of Munkebotsvatnet towards the north, and take the trail up to cabin Ravneberg. This trail is actually quite steep (but nice and straight-forward to hike up), offering some nice views along it. Continuing along the trail, we then passed by (closed) Sandvikshytten, before heading further upwards into the direction of Kvitebjørnen. Instead of hiking all the way to the top of Kvitebjørnen, however, we then followed a lower trail that was supposed to bring >>>

Erdalsvarden from Bratland (or so)

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:30h
Entfernung:
12,2km

We picked up an older plan to visit Erdalsvarden from Bratland and drove past Grimevatnet to the south of Søylevatnet (along the main road to Arna). We parked where on also can take a trail (in southern direction) to get up to Furedalen. Instead, however, we headed (at large) in northward direction, passing Søylevatnet in its east. We then continued along the ridge that extends from Borgnyhaugen (in the southwest) to Krunhaugen (in the northeast). From there, we followed (for a short stretch) the road up to Øvre Bratland, before turning left at house 146 and then walking along the old postal route between Bergen and Christiania (nowadays Oslo). This brought us to the saddle where one could then continue downwards again (towards Erdalen in southwestern direction). There, we turned right >>>
