Crossing Borga from/to Borgo

Datum:
02.04.2021
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
10,5km

Since it had been a while, since we last were on Borga, we thought that we could pay this nice mountain near Arna another visit. We left Bergen towards the East, passing by Grimevatnet along the way. Near Haukeland, we turned left from Hardangervegen, heading into Langedalen. At Borgo, we parked next to the road and started our hike. From the road we had already double-checked that ascending along the southern (steep) ridge of Borga (south of Kvitnosa) appeared possible (while still a bit challenging). Keeping a little east of the actual ridge, we ascended more or less directly up through some half-open forest. Avoiding cliffs, this way, we managed to straight-forwardly ascend towards Kvitenosa, stepping up over mostly grass in between generously spaced trees. This ascent is indeed quite >>>

Crossing Midtfjellet and Lørdagsknausen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
14,6km

The idea was to cross Midtfjellet, between Fløyen and Rundemanen, from north to south. We took a bus to Skuteviken and walked up towards Mulen from there. Instead of stepping up to the dam on the north side of the valley, where the main route is, we went up on the Breistølen side, passing by the little water reservoir at Mulen on its southern side. Once on its eastern side, in the lower parts of Skredderdalen, we crossed the little stream and connected with the main route. Following this main path upwards (it's steep there, but a common trail, nonetheless), we came to Nedrediket and "road" Byfjellene there. Crossing the little dam on the northwestern side of Nedrediket, we continued our way upwards until we were right next to the northern end of Nordre Midtfjellet. To get >>>

A round west of Arna, including Stikka

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,5km

With the perspective of a half-dry, half-wet day ahead of us, we decided for another hike not too far from home. This time, our goal was to explore the hills in the west of Arna and Arnavågen. We thus left Bergen towards the east, aiming for Mjeldheimskleiva, where we parked just above Kleivadalen (in the west, a bit above Arna). We left the road basically where it crosses the little stream that comes down there from the northwest (and where the power line crosses the street, also). After some only 50 meters parallel to the stream, we started our (short) ascent to Vårheia (more or less directly in northern direction). On our way up there, we deviated a little from the trail and ascended across the southern ridge of Vårheia instead (also coming by a little cabin that can be found in >>>

Hetlebakksåta and Erviknipa from Breistein

Datum:
28.02.2021
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
7,2km

We somehow thought that it may be worthwhile to explore the ridge in the south of Erviknipa, southeast of Hetlebakksåta. We drove to Breistein via Åsane and parked quite a bit south on Breisteinvegen. According to our plan to hike a round, we first walked northwards (towards Nygård) to find an opportunity for ascending to Hetlebakksåta. When looking at the map before leaving, we had estimated that it should be possible to ascend towards Fosseskaret there and indeed this is well possible from Nygård (the "trails" up there are not very clear, but possible to find and certainly also possible to ascend, just a bit steep). At about 130mosl, we entered the little valley that comes down from Fosseskaret, right where there is a little waterfall down towards Breistein. At Fosseskaret, >>>

Lerkhaugen, Lisahaugen, and Gullsteinen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
5,1km

With only a bit of time available, we headed for a short hike in the neighborhood. To include at least one spot of (limited) interest, we decided to aim for Lisahaugen near Langegården in the northeast of Kråkenes. We parked near the southern end of Løvstien (at Øvre Kråkenes) and ascended to Lerkhaugen, first. Thereafter, we crossed Løvstien and continued to Lisahaugen (from its south). Crossing Lisahaugen south-to-north, we came back to Løvstien (for a moment), before changing course, again, and then aiming at Langatjørna in the west of Mindebakken. This ascent from Løvstien is a bit steep, but well possible and actually quite nice through th forest there. North of Langatjørna we then turned around, heading back via Gullsteinen. South of Gullstølen, we descended along some >>>

Walk along Sælenvatnet

Datum:
14.02.2021
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
2,3km

With just a little time at our disposal, we decided to quickly get a little fresh air and make a short walk along the shoreline of (frozen) Sælenvatnet. After walking down from Varden, we crossed over Fyllingsdalsveien, using a small bridge near the big junction with Bjørgeveien. Once on the other side, we walked onto this particular peninsula that extends into Sælenvatnet on its western side. Following some small, but "beaten" paths, we rounded most of this peninsula, before heading back and up to Varden, again. Nice with all that snow! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Holefjellet via Storhovden, Eikelifjellet, Gravdalsfjellet

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
9,3km

Expecting the unusually stable winter weather to end soon, we decided to get out and enjoy both sun and snow directly where we live, doing "nothing else" than a hike in Kanadaskogen. We started walking northwards from Varden, passing by Sælen church and crossing over the fotball fields in front of the FraMo sports hall, we continued into the direction of Hesjaholten, walking along the houses at Veslefrikkveien in their south. Surrounding Hesjaholten in its west (and below it, there), we entered the valley through which the waters from Krokatjørna come down as a little stream. Walking up this valley, we came to the somewhat more flat (and usually very wet) area in the west of Stora Krokatjørna. Enjoying some lovely sun and nice snow there, we walked across the (usually) boggy >>>

After work stroll north of Varden

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,2km

We just wished to refresh ourselves a little after work and thus simply "strolled around" in the neighborhood. The only (very moderately) intersting bit of this short walk was that we tried a new "connection" between Fyllingsdalsveien and Krokatjønnveien, where one can find a good number of trees between the houses, almost a little forest! :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Round around Storavatnet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
3,1km

Since there wasn't much daylight left and since the weather was not exactly lovely (it was OK though!), we decided for a short round in the neighborhood. We thus first drove up to Krohnegården in the north of Fyllingsdalen and parked near Svartatjørna. The goal was to make one round aroud Storavatnet (in clockwise direction), but to do that off the main trail. This way, we included a number of small hills, including Søråsen and Nordåsen. From some of them, you actually have some nice views, mostly down into Fyllingsdalen, but also to Løvstakken in the east and Olsokfjellet and Damsgårdsfjellet in the west. While off the main trail, most of this round was still on "minor trails" (and without any difficulties). Only the traverse of the hill in the very northwest of Storavatnet >>>

Herlandsfjellet, Skåldalsfjellet, and Skåldalsnipa

4:30h
Entfernung:

This Sunday was predicted to come with blue skies and nice winter weather, and so it was! The day before we had arranged for a joint hike up Skåldalsfjellet to catch a good amount of winter sun, while also having some good time in not too deep snow. In order to cross over Skåldalsfjellet (from northeast to southwest), we started at the north-side of Osavatnet, almost at the very end of Gullfjellsvegen, where many of those, who venture into th Gullfjellet-mountains, park and start. Instead of walking towards Gullfjellet, however, we turned towards Ormarinden, a nice ridge that comes down from Herlandsfjellet in the north of Osavatnet. This ridge has a very nice trail on it, making the ascent to Herlandsfjellet straight-forward and non-difficult. At the very top of Herlandsfjellet, we >>>
