A round trip on the mountain of the Island Godøy.

Datum:
02.05.2015
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:32h
Entfernung:
10,3km

On this day I had a nice trip walking the mountains of Godøy Island. Weather was nice, and the scenenery was picturesque. The climb from the promontory of Alnes is rather steep to begin with, but you then reach a plateau at about 250 meters above mean sea level, on which is located a lake called Alnesvatnet. This lake is ideally located as a drinking water reservoir for the entire municipality of Giske, which is constituted of four inhabited islands along with a number of uninhabited islets. The lake is located substantially higher than any of the inhabited areas of the municipality, hence there's sufficient water pressure to reach all the houses in need of water. Once on the plateau, you walk along Alnesvatnet to its eastern end, and then you follow the track up a rather stony mountain edge >>>

A short trek to Mount Myklebusthornet on Ellingsøy Island

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:40h
Entfernung:
5,2km

I went for a mountain trek with my oldest son this day to the island called Ellingsøya . The island has a mountain ridge in east-west direction, which stretches along most of the island. The ridge is usually just reffered to as Ellingsøyfjellet [i.e. "the Ellingsøy mountain"], but it has several peaks along its course, called Vikenakken, Sperrenakken and Myklebusthornet, among which Myklebusthornet is the highest. We parked at the parking spot of a local football field on the north side of the island (Nes Stadion). The climb to Myklebusthornet from this spot is about 2,6 km, making the trip 5,2 km including the decent back to the parking spot. The peak is 329 meters above mean sea level, about 300 meters above the altitude at which we parked the car. The peak is located just above >>>

Hiking to Mount Ulriken in Bergen

Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:15h
Entfernung:
6,2km

This afternoon I had a nice trip on mount Ulriken in Bergen in wonderful sunshine. The nature's just beautiful at spring time, and as its getting gradually warmer at this time of the year, I actually had a haircut before I started hiking. For the mountain climb I used a trail that runs more or less along the cable car (or actually beneath it). To have some variation, however, I chose a different, and somewhat longer route for the descent. The descent path kind of encircles part of the mountain plateau which Ulriken is a part of, and then you descend from the plateau at a spot where the altitude is a bit lower. This longer path takes you to a number of small mountain lakes or ponds, in some of which you're allowed to have a bath i you so desire. It was still just April, however, and therefore >>>

Bicycle ride to Mount Rundemanen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
1:48h
Entfernung:
16,4km

Bicycle ride to the top of mount Rundemanen in Bergen, Norway this evening. There's still some snow along this route, hence I had to roll my bicycle a few yards a couple of places when climbing the mountain; whereas downhill I could ride my bicycle all the way. It's quite cool having the Endomondo-App on the iPhone. Not only does it draw a map of the track you've been riding, it even measures the max speed of the bicycle when decending the mountain. I have a hard time believing that such a hard bicycle ride only consumes 646 kcal, however, as it does indeed feel like a lot more than that. Maybe I should upgrade to the Pro version of Endomondo to get the calorie consuption correct...

Kveldstur til Ulriken

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Entfernung:
5,0km

Jeg arbeider i Bergen, og leier en pendlerbolig i Haukelandsbakken, så jeg går ofte tur opp på Ulriken og ned igjen. Som oftest har jeg valgt traséen gjennom skogen under Ulriksbanen på vei opp, så også denne dagen. Halvveis oppe tok jeg Bergen-by-night-bildet ovenfor. Jeg fortsatte opp til toppen (med toppen mener jeg her vest-toppen på 607 m.o.h.).

Til Myklebusthornet på Ellingsøya med Dag

Bergtour

Det var min sønn Dag som denne dagen spurte om jeg ville være med ham opp på Myklebusthornet på Ellingsøya, og jeg takket ja til det. Han hadde vært der oppe flere ganger før, og var godt kjent. Vi parkerte ved skolen/idrettshallen på Vik, og fulgte skogsveien derfra oppover til vi kom opp på ryggen mellom Vikanakken og Sperrenakken . Omtrent akkurat oppe på vannskillet tok vi av fra veien, og fulgte en sti vestover mot Sperrenakken [320 m.o.h.] og Myklebusthornet [329 m.o.h.]. Stien vestover er grei å følge. Vi passerte først Kleiva [214 m.o.h.], og kom så til Sperrenakken [320 m.o.h.], som her på Peakbook går under betegnelsen Myklebusthornet Østre. Like vest for Sperrenakken er det en litt bratt skrent som man må ta seg ned, men som er helt grei så lenge det ikke er vått >>>

On Mount Løvstakken with my Son Dag

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung

The city of Bergen has traditionally been called The City Between Seven Mountains, though there’s traditionally also been a dispute as to which of the many mountains around the city actually comprises the seven. Nevertheless, Mount Løvstakken is generally agreed upon to be one of the seven, and I had therefore had a desire for some time to visit this mountain. I had been working in Bergen for a little less than a year at this time, despite living in a different part of Norway; and as my oldest son was visiting me in Bergen this weekend, I suggested to him that we ascend Mount Løvstakken on this day. We went by car from my Bergen apartment to the valley between Mount Løvstakken and Mount Olsokfjellet, i.e. to a location called Melkeplassen, and started trekking from there. The trail that >>>

On Mount Ulriken with my Son Dag

Bergtour

I had been working at the university hospital in Bergen since september 2013, and now my oldest son Dag was visiting me in Bergen; and so in the afternoon we decided to hike up to the summit of Mount Ulriken. The mountain has a cable car that you may use to get up there, but our intention with the ascent was to get a workout, and so we abandoned the cable car, and started to climb along a trail just beneath were the cable car goes. The first part of our trail goes through forest, but as you approach the top of the mountain, the trees become more scarce, and all of a sudden it is gone. On Mount Ulriken, what seems to be the top of the mountain as you're climbing, isn't actually the summit of the mountain; it's just a knoll or a ridge a little bit west of the summit. The real top of the mountain >>>

To Mount Galdhøpiggen across Glacier Styggebreen

Datum:
20.07.2006

This was the year that my wife said to me: Atle, this summer you'll have to take our kids with you and go somewhere on summer holiday without me, because i will have to work. She was studying to become a nurse at this time, and she had decided that she had to work at our local hospital almost all summer, to ensure she'd get a foot on the inside, as this would enhance her chances of getting a job there when summer was over. So, I decided to take our kids with me on a holiday destination that I knew it would be difficult to talk my wife into going on, i.e. Mount Galdhøpiggen, Norway's highest mountain. Talking my children into trekking Mount Galdhøpiggen was not as difficult as you'd think. They all love skiing in alpine ski arenas, and at this time, since it was summer, it had been a couple >>>
