Exploring (parts of) Lysøya

Datum:
28.07.2024
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
4,2km

Even though we knew that Ole Bulls villa would be closed, we still thought that making an excursion to Lysøya could be nice. The ferry took us over to Lysøya from Buena and we started our walk with taking a look at Ole Bulls villa (from the outside, only). From there, we then continued southwards (and upwards) to take a look at a small vista-point ("Udsigten"), before then continuing northwards (and via the heights of Lysøya). This then brought us to the little watch tower ("Tårnet") from which one indeed can enjoy some nice views (over the tree-tops). Thereafter, we walked further northwards in order to take a look at Furulunden (also the highest point on Lysøya). Next on our "ToDo list" was Lysøygrotta, just a little underneath Furulunden (in its west). >>>

Gløvrebu

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
2,6km

After our excursion to Skogsøyna , we decided to also see "the split rock" at Gløvrebu. We parked right next to the cemetary of Hjelme church on Seløyna and followed the main trail out to Gløvrebu, choosing the variant that brings one out to the sea early. At Gløvrebu, we then stepped through the gap in the rock -- as one obviously has to! :-) -- before enjoying the early evening near the coast for some time. To get back to our car, we then followed the trail that "hugs" Ramberget (in the west of Hjelme church). Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Skogsøy, always impressive!

Datum:
27.07.2024
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
5,7km

Skogsøy is always ("always") a good idea! :-) We parked near the bridge to Herdlevær and followed the main trail to Skogsøytua. There, we explored the wild cliffs before then taking the southern route back to Mjelkevik. From there, we then followed the main trail back to the car. While Skogsøy is no longer as secret a tip as it was before, it's still a very nice hike to an impressive place (where "the last resort" of Norwegian land meets the open North Atlantic)!

Evening walk to Knappen

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,5km

With still a couple of daylight hours to go (easy in July around here!), we decided to simply make a short round to Knappen. Evening light is actually quite nice -- also on Knappen! :-) 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 Knappen . Web page UT.no from the Norwegian Trekking Association recommends another hike to Knappen .

Exploring Ytrebygda a little more

Datum:
24.07.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
27,8km

To get some fresh air in the nice weather, I embarked on a short bike trip with a few small walking bits. I first explored Storåsen on Dolvikhaugene, just to find the "actual top" to be a bit too much within the houses around it. I then visited Skranevatnet in the southwest of Feråsen, which was a nice surprise. Next, I explored Storasåta in the north of Ytrebygsvegen. When approached from the north/northeast, one can actually find a proper trail that leads up to this small hill. Thereafter, I paid Lilandshaugen a short visit, which offers quite some nice views across the airport of Bergen. I improvised my way up, just to then find out that actually there's a convenient road (Lilandsvegen) that leads up to the vista-point. After biking around Lilandshaugen, I then checked >>>

Søtefjellet from Hausdalen

Datum:
20.07.2024
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
6:30h
Entfernung:
10,4km

We wished to use the nice weather on this warm Saturday afternoon and headed for Hausdalen in the southeast of Bergen. Driving Hausdalen in for a little less than 7km, we parked in the southwest of Tømmervika (Samdalsvatnet), where a forest road forks off Hausdalsvegen into the direction of Straumsrinden. Following this forest road, we passed by Samdalsvatnet in its southwest, heading for the southwestern ridge of Søtefjellet, starting at Hisbotn. Just because others have described their ascent to the small hill in the north of Ulvvatnet (and even though they did not recommend to visit it -- or maybe because of their according comments :-)), this hill was included as a prelude to the ascent to Søtefjellet. Back on the forest road, and "around some corners in the northeast of Ulvvatnet, >>>

Around Løvstakken (and up to it, too)

Datum:
15.06.2024
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
22,9km

We combined two ideas: Cycle along Løvstien and visit Løvstakken. We started at Varden and biked around Sælevatnet, continuing then along Straumeveien until we came to Bøneset. There we crossed under the main road to then ascend towards Storahugen and further to Kråkenes. Following road Øvre Kråkenes, we got to the start point of Løvstien (on its southern end). We then biked along Løvstien, passing by Lerkhaugen and Lisahaugen, until we were close to Grønnestølen. At about (5.3307E/60.3549) we then parked our bikes at the side of Løvstien, where also a trail from Grønnestølstunet comes up. From there, we then started our ascent towards Løvstakken, starting in southwestern direction (up towards a small saddle that would bring us over and into "Dalen"). While one >>>

Knappen

Tourlänge:
0:45h
Entfernung:
4,8km

To get some fresh air, we decided to do a quick round over Knappen, approaching it via Sandeidbrotet (up to Eldtona, first). After crossing over to Såta on Knappen, we then descended furthre southwards (via Hesthaugen). Before stepping out on Knappenveien, we saw some (new?) signs near the sports area, suggesting a trail through the forest to Knappentunet. Following this trail, we first made quick progress into the right direction. After a while, however, the trail seemed to cross over some wet area at Hesthaugen, becoming less visible (or not at all, actually). Following our basic sense of orientation, we crossed through the forest into the right direction, connecting to Knappenveien at Knappentunet in the south of Knappatjørna. From there, it was then straight-forward (mostly) to >>>

Exploring some hills near Vadmyra

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
30,4km

After a relatively calm day, there were still a couple of hours to spend outside. The plan was to explore the area around Vadmyra between Storavatnet in the west and Loddefjord in the east. I took the bike along Bjørgeveien and then via Bjørndalsbrotet across Hetlevikstraumen to leave it at Haakonsvernveien, south of Hetlevikåsen. I found a trail that leads up into the direction of Vadmyrahallen (right under the power line). Once up and close to Vadmyrahallen, I turned left in order to make it up to Hetlevikåsen (without finding a trail, though). From Hetlevikåsen, I continued further northwards to find a way up to Høyvikåsen. The western flank of Høyvikåsen is a steep cliff and I first got a bit too far down. A bit of back-tracking, however, brought me back up and further north >>>

Burlifjellet and Skorafjellet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
11,1km

Driving north from Fusa, into the direction of Samnanger, we passed through Eikelandsosen, first, continuing further northwards along road 48. At Sævell, right after passing by Sævellavatnet, we turned right onto Sævellvegen. Near Høgehaugen, we paid a bit of road-toll in order to continue along Sævellvegen. Driving carefully (Sævellvegen is not paved further inwards), we arrived at Kjøpmannavadet shortly after. There, right next to the bridge, we parked at the side of the road. Crossing over the bridge southwards, we started our hike along a forest road that leads to Breivatnet just a little down the road. There, one crosses over Breielva right next to a small cabin right at Breivatnet. A marked trail then leads up to Helane and from there further towards the lower end of Lisetredalen. >>>
