Skiing at Fløyen in December!

Datum:
16.12.2022
Tourcharakter:
Langlauf
Tourlänge:
3:23h
Entfernung:
14,8km

Skiing at Fløyen in December is quite uncommon as there is usually not enough snow in Bergen at this time of the year (I had not recorded any such trips myself for the last six years). Given that the snow would most likely soon disappear, maybe already during the weekend, I decided to have a go after work on a Friday. The plan was to take Fløibanen from the city center, but I missed it by less than one minute and the next one was not until half an hour later. The trip therefore instead started by walking up to Fløyen with the skis coming on just below Skomakerdiket. Pretty good conditions for skiing overall and I more or less had the tracks to myself. Thanks to the recent new snow, some of it during the trip itself, I could even keep the skis on all the way to the top of Øyjorden.

Skiing the entire 10 km track at Hodlekve Skisenter on a rather gray day during an almost constant snow shower. We also made a short detour to the DNT cabin called Kollsetestølen , which today was even more hidden than usual underneath lots of snow.

Left work early to take advantage of the excellent afternoon weather forecast to go skiing. I started by taking the bus to Starefossen and walked up to Skomakerdiket. The skis came on just below Skomakerdiket and stayed on until the small dam north of Storevatnet. Perfect skiing conditions between Rundemanen and Blåmanen, except for a strong and cold wind from the north. Lysløypen was also quite good. Outside of those areas there was plenty of hard snow/ice with lots of footprints that made skiing slightly more difficult than usual.

Skiing at Fløyen

The first skiing trip of 2022! After inspecting the weather forecast for the coming weekend it was very clear that if the recent snow at Fløyen was to be enjoyed at all before it would most likely disappear, it would have to be on the Friday. I therefore pushed all my planned work to the rainy weekend and instead headed for Fløyen via the bus to Starefossen (given that Fløibanen was currently getting an upgrade and not operational). The skis came on just below Skomakerdiket and stayed on until just above Munkebotsvatnet. Except for the last stretch, the skiing conditions were close to perfect! Too bad that most of the snow will probably all be gone after the next couple of rainy days...

We started from the top of Fløibanen and first followed "lysløypen" before heading up to Rundemanen . More snow than expected and overall very good conditions for skiing. Especially for mid-April. Surprisingly we could even ski all the way down to Munkebotsvatnet before the skis had to be carried.

A repeat of my earlier skiing trip to Brushytten and back, but this time together with Sigjoern (Sigbjørn Holm) and Marthine. Relatively cold evening with -9 at Brushytten. Excellent skiing conditions though, and the skis stayed on all the way until reaching the top of Øyjorden.

Yet another skiing trip at Fløyen, but this time starting by taking Fløibanen to avoid the icy ascent roads. Very few people at Fløibanen, maybe just over ten in total. Which was a bit strange given the close to perfect skiing conditions in "lysløypen"! The descent in the direction of Munkebotsvatnet was more challenging, with conditions varying from hard snow to packed ice. I still kept the skis on until close to the end of the steep descent below Vannverkshuset i Skiveien . Would probably have been possible to continue further, but walking was almost as fast and much safer. The snow chains did however not come on until getting to the start of Hellemyrstien (and was perhaps not even needed there either).

At around three in the afternoon I finally managed to leave the home office to enjoy the tail end of yet another beautiful winter day in Bergen. Started by carrying the skis up to the top of Øyjorden and then skied to the start of the gravel road up from Munkebotsvatnet. Here I carried the skis up to Grindarasten , from where the skis stayed on until returning to Øyjorden almost three hours later. From Brushytten I also made a quick visit to Blåmansveien utsiktspunkt for some spectacular views before starting the descent. The head lamp was not required until passing by Storediket.
