Pre-flight Knappen

Datum:
16.03.2019
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
0:45h
Entfernung:
4,5km

Before one of us had to leave the country, the prospect of sitting some hours on planes was enough to bring us out for a short hike (even though the weather was not the best). Since time was short, the decision was easy: one quick walk over Knappen! :-) Refreshing! See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen .

Sjurstonipa

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
6,1km

We took the car from Bergen via Åsane to Gaupås and parked right at Arna stadion. Our first goal was to visit Osen (via Gamsevegen) and to check whether one indeed has a nice view from up there -- and, yes, the view, for example across Gaupåsvatnet, is quite nice! :-) From there, we wanted to connect to Sjurstonipa. But instead of taking the nice path back, which we used to get up to Osen, we descended along a stone wall that runs towards the east from Osen. At the lower end of this descent (near Kvernaskaret), the terrain is quite a bit steep and choosing ones steps carefully was advised (no problem, though, to get down to the saddle). On the other side, we then ascended to the Lavvo place near the upper houses of Ytre Arna. Instead of entering Ytre Arna, we continued across the "top", >>>

Olsokfjellet, Damgårdsfjellet, and Gravdalsfjellet

Datum:
19.01.2019
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
6,1km

We started near Betanien hospital in upper Fyllingsdalen and walked upwards into Nordnæsdalen. A little north of the sports plain at Nordnæsdalen, we found the path to the right (east), which leads up to Olsokfjellet. Half way up, when leaving the trees behind, we enjoyed a few nice views towards the south and over Fyllingsdalen. From the top of Olsokfjellet, we connected to Damsgårdsfjellet. After crossing Damsgårdsfjellet southeast--northwest, we descended into Skaret (icy!) before continuing into the direction of Gravdalsfjellet from there (mostly westwards, first). Finding all the paths in the snow without any difficulties, we quickly connected to Gravdalsfjellet. At the top of Gravdalsfjellet, we again enjoyed some nice views! :-) Descending in southern direction from there, >>>

Wet Løvstakken

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:45h
Entfernung:
5,2km

Even though the clouds were hanging really low and even though it was as wet outside as it looked from inside (very!), we still decided to get some fresh air. We chose Løvstakken, but wished to hike it from Krambua and long a trail that we wished to explore. We parked near the BoA sports shop and after a few "wild meters", we were ready to walk up Grønnestølen (along Grønnestølensveien first, then further up parallel to a little stream that comes down in the south of Grønnestølen. Ascending on the right (eastern) side of this stream, we continued further up along a nice (and quite steep) path (though Dalen). At about 250mosl, we briefly lost our path, but managed to reconnect to it soon after. From there, then, it was pretty straight-forward to further ascend to Løvstakken >>>

Knappen

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
4,1km

We only had a bit of time to get some fresh air and thus decided to do Knappen, once again. :-) We started from Varden, descended to Bjørgeveien first, before then using Sandeidbrotet to connect to a path that would lead us further up and towards Knappen. Once up on the heights (still in the very north of Knappen), we this time followed a minor (and wet) path more towards the northeastern side of the "Knappen-plateau" (than the more usual path on the western side). Halfway along this path, however, we decided that we would still cross over to the "top" of Eldtona, before continuing further to Knappen. Once on Knappen, we this time chose the path leading (more or less) directly down to Knappatjørna (in eastern direction). Before actually getting all the way down, however, >>>

Ørnafjellet and Lyderhorn

Datum:
25.12.2018
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
6,5km

We took the car to Gravdal in order to go up to Ørnafjellet first. Instead of going up via Kvarven and the paved road there, we decided to use a minor path that leads up relatively directly from the east (half way up, one can appreciate a sign calling this ascent "Mördarbacken"). In order to get there, we used the wooden stairs behind the industrial buildings around Nutec in Gravdalsbukten. Once up the stairs, we continued through a little valley in southern direction until we came up to a place with a small soccer field. From there, the actual ascent to Ørnafjellet starts (in western direction and mostly straight upwards). Before actually getting to the top of Ørnafjellet, one reaches a small saddle near to Skåleviksvatnet. From there, it's mostly in southern direction >>>

Kanadaskogen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
9,7km

We started from Varden and wished to get some fresh air before dawn time. We first descended to Gjeddevatnet near Myratjørna. We then followed along the lakeside to Gjerdsvika, where we continued along a path that leads upwards in norther direction. Crossing over the "heights" there (between Hesjaholtet on the right / east and the lakes on the left / west), we descended towards Bjørndalsvatnet from there. We then walked along the lake until we came to its northern most bay. From there, we continued along a nice path (in northern direction), getting to Svartatjørna a little later. We passed by Svartatjørna on its western side, continuing along another nice path that connects to Tennebekk. There, we first went to this place, which reminds of some tragic deaths at the end >>>

Loneheia, Storoksla, Nesheia, and Vemånen

Datum:
15.12.2018
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
8,3km

We took the car into the direction of Arna along road 580 and parked near Espeland, right next to the main road. Our first goal was to ascend to Loneheia on the northern side of the street. We crossed the main road, the stream that runs there (from Haukelandsvatnet), and the railroad to get to Lonaleitet. There, we first followed a narrow and steep street upwards between some houses, before we changed over "into the wild" to ascend relatively directly upwards along the south-going ridge of Lonaheia. This way, we quickly arrived at the "top" of Lonaheia, also enjoying some nice views! On our way back, we followed another ridge (a bit to the east of the main ridge) and connected back to the narrow, steep street between the houses. Our next goal was Storoksla, on the other, >>>

Løvstien (southern part)

Datum:
08.12.2018
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
3,9km

We started at the southern-most end of Løvstien (at street Øvre Kråkenes and near Leknes Containerservice AS) and followed Løvstien from there, passing by Lerkhaugen in its north and Lisahaugen (basically surrounding it). Near Kopesteinen, we enjoyed a new stretch of Løvstien, which must have built quite recently, and followed it until where was no continuation (without stepping into the dark forest without a path). Instead, we turned around and walked everything back, enjoying a really nice evening, this way. :-) See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Vasslifjellet via Soleibakkane

Datum:
25.11.2018
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
10,8km

We took the car to Sædalen, behind Nattlandsfjellet, and parked it at the lower end of Indre Sædal. From there, we first followed street Sædalssvingane upwards (in northeastern direction, towards Løypingsberget). But instead of following the road all the way to its highest point, we on the eastern side of the valley and ascended (mostly without a path there) further up there. Shortly before reconnecting with the road (at its highest point), we aligned with the water that is coming down from Søre Gløvrevatnet. We climbed further up, first on the water's eastern side, before then crossing it and ascending to the ridge that leads further up from there. There, we also found a nice path, which was easy and straight-forward to follow further upwards. Soon after, we came to Søre Gløvrevatnet >>>
