Short bike trip with the main objective of visiting Storahugen , yet another new minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list. Not much to say about this one. Limited views, but at least it can be easily accessed via a trail from the north. And getting to the trailhead by bike was straightforward, which overall made for a more interesting trip. When at the summit I also noticed that there are plenty of other small named hills in the area. So I have a feeling I'll be coming back when more of these are added to the Alle topper i Bergen list. But given that I had not in advanced looked into whether any of these could be easily accessed or not, this would have to wait.

Another cycling trip around Kalandsvatnet, this time to visit two new minor summits recently added to the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Bjørnåsen and Hamresåta . Thanks to the recent trip report from knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) , both Bjørnåsen and Hamresåta were now straightforward to get to via trails, and I pretty much followed in the footsteps of Knut Sverre and Astrid. Note that while the trail for Bjørnåsen is marked, I still almost missed the trailhead, as the trail itself was pretty weak. But if you start looking to the right just before the trail reaches Ulvvatnet/Svartavatnet you should able to locate the first trail marker. I left the bike at the trailhead and followed a trail that was, at least at the moment, quite hidden by ferns and tall grasses, but it could still be followed without much difficulty and made it straightforward to reach the summit which, as >>>

Sunday cycling trip with the objective of visiting Solbakkefjellet NØ , a recently added minor peak that I had passed close by before but not actually visited. My initial plan had been to cycle via Hauglandsdalen and ascend from Frotveit, but this route was blocked, twice, by a field of grazing horses. I could probably have made my way to the northern trailhead anyway, but I decided to instead head to the alternative trailhead further south. This turned out to be mistake as the gravel roads on the west side of Solbakkefjellet are clearly better suited for horseback riding than cycling, resulting in anything but a comfortable ride. But I finally left the bike behind north of the alternative trailhead and from there continued on foot to the large cairn at Solbakkefjellet, enjoying the excellent views along the way. Just before >>>

Cycling trip along Dalavatnet starting from Hollekvebrui p-lomme and going all the way to Anestølen before returning. Most of the trip was on a paved road with very little traffic before a gravel road took over for the last stretch in to Anestølen. Overall the paved road was of good quality, however one should pay attention as there are areas where frost heaving has damaged the pavement. I of course managed to hit one of these tiny holes at a time when I was paying more attention to the views than the road, and in some strange way managed to tumble over the handle bars of my bike and hitting the asphalt. Luckily my speed was very low and I got way with only minor bruises and could continue cycling, but now paying at least slightly more attention to the road. In summary, an excellent trip with spectacular views along the >>>

I started by cycling to Strandkaiterminalen, from where I took the high-speed ferry to Rubbestadneset. Here I started the GPS tracking and headed south along the roads to the trailhead for Siggjo , generally on either separate cycling/walking paths or on roads with limited traffic. It should however be mentioned that while the area was overall well-suited for cycling, the signs for cyclists leave a lot to be desired, as basically there were none. I therefore struggled a bit when getting to the highway south of Rubbestadneset and trying to figure out how where the cycling path continued. After reaching the valley between Siggjo and Furefjellet called Åreiddalen, I easily located the unmarked trailhead for Siggjo and continued from there on foot. See the separate trip report here . Upon returning to my bike, I cycled >>>
