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 >>>

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)

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 .

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 >>>

To get a little bit of fresh air, we made a quick hike over Knappen. Instead of returning via Knappetjørna and Vassteigen, we descended via Hesthaugen and returned along Sælenvatnet back to Varden.

Stendafjellet at about sunset

Entfernung:
3,4km

Even though it was already a bit late (for November in Bergen), there still was a chance for a short hike. From the little parking place near the previous train station at Stend (a bit north of Fana), I headed directly into the forest (in northern direction), not following the gravel road that also starts from there (a bit further east). After only a few steps, I got to a little pond (seemingly hold back by a little dam) and chose to surround it on its western side. In order to get further up, I crossed a little saddle north of the pond and ascended through the forest in northeastern direction, following one of apparently several possible routes. Once a bit further up, the terrain flattened out (a bit) and I continued in northern direction, heading towards Stendaåsen. After reaching the >>>

Løvstakken for some fresh air

3,1km

Due to a lack of more time, we this time "only" made a quick hike up Løvstakken. We parked right next to Litlavatnet in Fyllingsdalen and ascended via the main path to Løvstakken from there (first towards Ravnefjellet, then around and up to Løvstakken). After a short stop at the top (in strong winds!), we returned along the same path. Always good to at least get a bit of fresh air! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

On this day with a "mixed" weather prediction, we decided to do a smaller hike, still trying something new. We parked near the Unneland Kultur og Aktivitetshus at Unnelandsvegen 253, 5268 Haukeland, and walked from there. Immediately after crossing the bridge over the stream that comes down from Seterdalen (as well as from Rambjørgsgjelet), heading towards Haukelandsvatnet (at Nesvika), we found the path to Vemånen (first passing by Rodalshaugen). This is a very easy to find and nice to walk path, following the ridge (mostly in northern direction) up to Vemånen. Near the top of Vemånen, one gets out of the forest and can enjoy some nice views, in particular over Haukeland and Haukelandsvatnet. The best viewpoint, however, is not at the "top" of Vemånen, but a few >>>

Via Purkedalsgjelet to Kofta etc.

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
7:45h
Entfernung:
18,2km

This hike, and in particular the part through Purkedalsgjelet up to Kofta, was one that asked for a careful preparation. It's recommended that you study the circumstances carefully and choose also the weather conditions appropriately. In order to enjoy this hike, you should (a) be at least somewhat experienced with hiking in the mountains around Bergen, in particular also without a path (finding your way, etc.) and (b) choose a dry day on which you can expect that there would not be too much water coming down Purkedalsgjelet (I'd rather not go this hike when snow is melting on Gullfjellet, or after some heavy rain). Take care (and enjoy)! :-) We parked along the road from Os to Samnanger (#137), which passes Gullfjellet on its eastern (generally very steep) side. Actually, we first missed >>>

We had the (kind of ambitious) plan to walk a round over Nordhordlandskulten, descending to the south from it (even though it was unclear from the consulted maps, whether this should be reasonably doable, given the also quite steep side of the mountain there). To have the car at the right side of the mountain, we parked along Gåssandvegen near a place called Haukeland. The first task was to find the path, which would lead northover in order to bring us to a place from which it would be reasonable to cross over to the main path up to Nordhordlandskulten (the standard approach is from Tømmernes, a little further north). After a little bit of searching, we quickly found the track which leads northwards into Vetlaleitet (a quite nice little valley, in fact!). We then also found the tractor >>>
