Allestadhaugen in deep snow

Datum:
20.01.2024
Tourcharakter:
Schneeschuhtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
3,8km

Expecting that all the (lots of) snow would be rained away the coming day, we took out our snow shoes and made an excursion into Kanadaskogen (in the northwest of Varden). Stepping first around Gjeddevatnet in its northeast, we ascended to higher grounds in the east of Elvareidet. Making progress in the deep snow was quite a bit of a challenge, but it was very nice to explore this part of Kanadaskogen with so much snow. Near Allestadhaugen, we decided that not much more seemed reasonable on this day. Taking Allestadhaugen as our "turn-around" point, we headed back towards Varden (a bit further east than where we had stepped earlier. We still had to manage some steeper sections, but all in all, this excursion into the deep snow was very nice! :-) Selected photos are available as >>>

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 .

Biking to and from Krambua

Datum:
08.10.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
17,6km

We started with the assumption that there was a joint hike agreed upon, starting from Krambua. After refilling some air, we biked along Sælevatnet and Nordåsvatnet to Krambua (just to find out that, yes, there was an agreement to hike, but not for this Sunday! :-)). We thus took our bikes back home, including a bit of a detour (first up through Langeskogen, then via Bønes to Fyllingsdalen). Altogether a nice bike-ride in nice weather! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Saturday walk to Knappen

Datum:
07.10.2023
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
4,8km

One of our afternoon walks to Knappen, enjoying some nice weekend weather. While we stepped up along one of our more usual routes (via Sandeidbrotet, continuing to Knappen via Eldtona), we chose a partially off-trail route down to Knappenveien. Good to get a bit of fresh air! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen . Web page UT.no from the Norwegian Trekking Association recommends another hike to Knappen .

Biking detour in Fyllingsdalen

Datum:
16.09.2023
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
12,1km

While en route to a local supermarket for some shopping, I decided to bike a little detour. First, I surrounded Sælevatnet in its south. I then took the steep way up to Bønes/Fjellsdalen. I then cycled around Lyshovden in its northeast. After passing by Oasen, I decided to make a brief exploration of Skulehaugen -- kind of strange to passing by this little hill (almost) every day, but never actually making it up to its "top". After that, it was mostly to the shop and then back home -- so not so much to write, today... See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Bergens lengste bakke, one of the classics near Bergen!

Datum:
09.09.2023
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:15h
Entfernung:
12,8km

For a while, already, we had discussed that it absolutely was high time, again, for one of the nice classics in the vicinity of Bergen: up to Sydpolen from Brekkedalen! Since the weather seemed to hold throughout the day, we were quick to choose this hike for the day! :-) Driving into Hausdalen from E39 (south of Bergen), we aimed at the parking place at the very end of the road (basically where Brekkedalen splits off from Hausdalen). Hoping that we would not be too late to also find a free spot for our car, we then were relieved to actually find the parking place "only" half full (at about 11h). We quickly got started, heading into Brekkedalen along the gravel road. As soon as we approached Sandane, we also could look up to Sydpolen, already (always an impressive sight). Continuing >>>

Accidental Stemhaugen

Datum:
26.08.2023
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 >>>

Solbakkafjellet from Hausdalen

Datum:
05.08.2023
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
9,1km

Since we had not been there for a while, we thought that hiking up to Solbakkafjellet once again may nice. This time, however, we decided to approach it from Hausdalen near Haugland. Driving into Hausdalen, we found a place near Haugland, where we could leave the car for a few hours. From there, we started to approach Solbakkafjellet "straight up" (without any trail). The southeastern flank of Solbakkafjellet (Skoralia) is steep and occasionally one needs to find a way around some obstacles on the way up. Still, ascending "straight up" is not really difficult. Within not too long, we accordingly arrived at the top of Solbakkafjellet, paying Petersplassen a short visit (we could not remember this place from our last visit). We then crossed over the long top-ridge of >>>

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 >>>
