Wet Litlesotra (very wet!)

Datum:
25.03.2017
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,5km

I took the car along road #555 towards the west from Bergen, crossing the Sotra-bridge to Litlesotra. There, I continued to Straume (where also the Sator Center is), and followed the small road #209 towards the north from there. I passed the places, where one could drive to Foldnes and to Anglavik, later, and arrived in a small place called Vågo shortly after. I left the car in Vågo and started my hike in southern direction. Very soon, I had to leave the path, which I had started on, and continued through the wild (as expected from studying the map in advance). The first (nearby) target was Storanipa, just south of Vågo. On its western side, there are steep cliffs, but ascending to it from any of the other directions is straight forward. Next, I had already planned to cross over (in >>>

Møsnuken from Tveit

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:15h
Entfernung:
5,5km

Via Fana, we first drove to Osøyro, before we continued along road 137 (in northeastern direction). We passed Heggland and continued to Tveit, where we parked the car near to the point, where the street passes over Spannsteigselva, coming down from Gjemdalsskaret (at the end of our hike, we should come down exactly there, too). Our plan was to ascend towards Møsnuken via Tveitaberget. To do so, we first found a little forest road, which departs from Hegglandsdalsvegen a little southwest of where we parked (i.e., back along the street, which we had come there). This forest road leads upwards (mostly in western direction) and brings one conveniently to a height of about 150mosl. There, after an extended left swing, the road splits into a somewhat more prominent part, leading upwards in northern >>>

Along Sælevatnet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
0:45h
Entfernung:
2,3km

I started from Varden and got down from Vardeveien to Fyllingsdalsveien near the bridge, which crosses over Fyllingsdalsveien from Vardeveien (and over to Skitnakastet). After crossing Fyllingsdalsveien, I quickly descended towards Sælevatnet. Then, I followed the shoreline, first in southern direction, following the outer edge of this small peninsula, separated from "the rest of the world" by Fyllingsdalsveien. After having completed this surrounding, I got back to Skitnakastet, where I took the small bridge back to Vardeveien. From there, it was then only a few meters back to the start.

Home via Løvstakken

Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:45h
Entfernung:
12,0km

After a day with an important deadline (and the according stress) as well as teaching in the afternoon, I decided that it was time to get out into the fresh air. Even though already 16h30 in the afternoon, I thought that walking home via Løvstakken could be an option! I left Høyteknologisenteret in Bergen, crossed the new pedestrian bridge "Småpudden", and then headed for a quick connection to Løvstien. Following Damsgårdsveien a bit into southeastern direction brought me to a place, where some stairs lead upwards (to Michael Krohns gate). Crossing Michael Krohns gate, I found new stairs on the other side, leading further upwards (first to Lien and then to Nordre Skogveien). There (on Nordre Skogveien), I had to walk back (in southeastern direction) a little, before entering >>>

Knappen

1:00h
Entfernung:
4,6km

We started at Varden, walking down Marineveien and further on Bjørgeveien, where we turned left into Sandeidbrotet, leading steeply upwards (in the direction of Knappatjørna). At "the top", where the street makes a sharp turn to the left, a hiking path leaves to the right (only a few meters above another side-road, which only connects to a private place). Following the hiking path (into northwestern direction) brings one nearby Røstafjellet, i.e., another residential area north of Knappen and slightly elevated above Bjørgeveien. Before actually entering this area, another hiking path leaves to the left and upwards, first in western direction, but then, following the ridge, turning more and more into southern direction. Once on the ridge, the path follows the heights up to >>>

Entfernung:

We took bus #4 and got off at stop Sandvikstorget. We found a way up to Amalie Skrams vei and continued along Uren to get further up. Eventually, we went Sudmanns vei up to its end. There, one can sneak through some openings in order to get further up (to Fjellveien). Once on Fjellveien (there), it is only a few meters, before one can start with Stolzekleiven. We then ascended along Stolzekleiven in order to reach Sandviksfjellet. Clearly, many others were also out in order to test their strengths on Stolzekleiven. It is quite impressive, one must admit, with its many steps and the steep ascent to the top end, roughly 300 height meters above Fjellveien. One their, we continued off-trail along the (gentle) ridge in order to get to the actual "top" of Sandviksfjellet (a place, >>>

We drove to Arna from Bergen and continued (for a bit) on E16 until we came to the large bridge, which connects Osterøy for drivers. We crossed the bridge and took the first turn to the right (into the direction of Bruvik), instead of entering the long tunnel that leads further inlands and north on Osterøy. We drove this narrow and winding road a little bit to the east until we came to a small place called Blom. There we parked our car along the "main road" (at the eastern end of Blom), after we had asked and checked that this was OK. From the car we first walked a few meters back (in northwestern direction), following a narrow secondary road that connects to the few buildings of Blom. Only a few meters up this small road, one can easily find the trail head for this hike (there >>>

Gardafjellet and Signalen

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
7,0km

We took road #555 towards the west of Bergen, crossing Sotrabroen and the tunnel near Kolltveit. Turning left, right afterwards, we continued on road #555 towards Fjell, where we turned right, taking road #559 further westwards. At Ulveset, very near to the school there, we parked and started to hike. We first followed a small road called Trippevegen in northeastern direction, up to a relatively sharp turn. There, we found the path, which leads further north (instead of following the road, which extends towards the west). We followed this path to a point, which is marked with "Litlestengelen". From there we continued without a path in northeastern direction, heading towards Gardajellet (a bit north of Kvernavatnet). Hiking was all easy (mostly because the ground was conveniently >>>

Nice hike on Vindenes

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,4km

We drove westwards from Bergen, towards Sotra. After passing through the tunnel under Kolltveit, we turned right at the roundabout, continuing on road #561 in northwards direction. We drove through Knappskog to Ågotnes, where we left the main road at a roundabout, which also is the main entry point to the extended business area at Ågotnes, continuing on Bleivassvegen (again northwards) until we reached Vindenes. There we continued (just for very short) a little bit upwards onto the peninsula (to the northeast) until we found a suitable parking place near Vardhaugen (almost where the bus also turns). From there, we walked, following first a smaller road that leads northwards a bit to the west from the road along with we had parked. After only a few meters, we passed by a parking spot (just >>>

Anekletten on Toftøyna

Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
7,2km

I drove westwards from Bergen and over to Sotra, where I turned right (and northwards), following road #561, first through Knappskog and then through Ågotnes. A bit further north, I passed over Misje, before connecting to Toftøyna. There, I drove almost to the very north of this little island (near Torsteinsvik) and parked the car right where a little road called Husdalen connects with Toftøyvegen (road #561). On the other side of the street (on the eastern side), a path extends from the main road, leading eastwards. When crossing over a little dip, that connects to Orrdalsvatnet further south, I did not immediately see the continuation of the path and followed (instead) another path, which leads in northeastern direction. I followed this path until an area, where maybe some scouts are >>>
