Cycling: Nonskletten

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour Straße
Tourlänge:
2:26h
Entfernung:
31,0km

Evening cycling trip with the main objective of visiting Nonskletten . I left the bike at the gravel trail just east of the summit and made the most direct ascent towards the highest point. The summit was not very interesting, but there was a nice park south of the small hill.

For some time I had been considering an extended cycling trip with the goal of visiting Fedjebjørnen , and with a weekend of excellent weather forecasts I decided to finally give it a go. I started cycling from Lønborg just after nine in the morning and more or less followed the cycling route towards Mongstad. This meant that for most of the trip I was either on separate cycling/walking paths or on roads with limited traffic. The exception perhaps being the stretch from Alversundsbrua until turning left for Sæbø. Here it is probably best to avoid the rush hour traffic. Almost 4.5 hours later, and a total of 70 km, I finally arrived at Sævrøy. Here I had a 20-minute break waiting for the ferry to Fedje. Except for some light haze, the conditions were very good, and I could enjoy the excellent views from >>>

Cycling: Gullfjellet roundtrip

Tourlänge:

Entfernung:
106,4km

Long cycling trip around Gullfjellet via Åsane, Trengereid and (almost to) Osøyro. Close to all of the trip was on either separate cycling paths or along roads with very limited traffic. The main exception being the section from Trengereid (from after the short tunnel above the roundabout) to Hisdal. Here the only option is to share the road with the high-speed traffic. It is therefore recommended to avoid cycling here at times when there may be a lot of traffic. Note that it is straightforward to avoid the second slightly longer tunnel just before reaching Hisdal. The trick is to use the nice gravel road on the south side of the tunnel. As a bonus you get a very nice view towards Samnangerfjorden. I passed through the first tunnel, as it was much shorter and there was not a lot of traffic, >>>

The main objective of the day was to visit Kleppavarden at Tysnes, and the trailhead was to be reached by bike. When I started cycling from Lønborg, low-hanging clouds were covering half of Askøy, and the clouds had still not started lifting when I arrived at Halhjem, where I was too early and had to wait more than 40 minutes for the ferry. When getting off the ferry at Våge, the clouds finally disappeared as I followed the main road to Søreidsvågen, from where I continued on the smaller Neshamnvegen to the marked trailhead for Kleppavarden next to Kongsviktjørna. Here I left the bike behind and continued on foot. See the separate report here: Nesevarden, Kleppavarden and Hovåsen from Kongsviktjørna . Upon returning to the bike, I still had plenty of time until the ferry at Våge, and I therefore first made a short detour to Neshamn before following the >>>

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
5:19h
Entfernung:
67,6km

Cycling trip that also included a visit of Storakvitefjellet . Started by following the standard cycling route to Søfteland, where I turned southwest up the very steep Langedalen. Next, I passed by the ruins at Lysekloster on my way to Lysefjorden and Nordvik. Here I easily located the tractor road taking me to the unmarked trailhead for Storakvitefjellet. In order to get to the trailhead a small stream had to be crossed, but this was straightforward given multiple strategically placed rocks. At the trailhead I left the bike behind and continued towards the summit on foot. The trail was a bit wet early on, but was overall of good quality and easy to follow. It did however disappear (or perhaps split into multiple options?) when crossing a wet area below the summit, but by then the direction was pretty obvious, and the trail shortly >>>

Tourlänge:
2:39h
Entfernung:
29,0km

Evening cycling and hiking trip for a visit of Mindebakkentoppen . I left the bike behind at the bend in Løvstien north of Lisahaugen , from where I continued on foot along a very enjoyable trail marked for Løvstakken . The trail followed a relatively narrow pine-covered ridge which at times even requiring a bit of very light scrambling. Shortly after passing Langatjørna, I turned east towards the summit. First along a weak trail, and later in a more direct route requiring light scrambling. Not sure if I lost the trail or if the scrambling was indeed part of the trail. At the summit ridge there was however a very clear north-south trail, indicating that my ascent route is probably not the most common option. (More on the history of Mindebakken can be found here and here .) After a quick visit to the summit, which provided very limited views, >>>

Cycling: Nordåsvatnet and Storrinden

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
4:12h
Entfernung:
52,5km

Cycling trip around Nordåsvatnet that included a revisit of Storrinden and the excellent views from southwest of the summit . When descending from Storrinden I made a quick detour on foot to Dolvikfjellet , easily reached via a marked trail, although the views from the summit were limited. Before starting my return journey, I made a short visit of Skranehovden , ascending from the northwest (again leaving the bike behind), thus avoiding the feeling of going through someone's backyard that the ascent from the south seemed to include. To my surprise the small hill was packed with people enjoying the nice weather, most likely as the forested summit area provided shelter from the cold northerly wind. But all the trees also meant that the views were rather limited, however some very nice views towards Knappen and Lyderhorn could be obtained if heading north of the summit.
