Skulehaugen and Orrtuvatnet

Dato:
31.12.2022
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
0:41t
Distanse:
2,9km

When the final day of 2022 turned out to be a rather gray one, I opted for a short hike to visit yet another small hill recently added to the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Skulehaugen . Skulehaugen was easily accessible from southeast without getting too close to the nearest house just to the north of the summit. Afterwards, the hike was concluded by a walk around Orrtuvatnet before returning to Fyllingsdalen terminal.

Hopsfjellet and Staupefjellet

Dato:
23.12.2022
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:02t
Distanse:
5,5km

The first day of my extended Christmas holiday was spent travelling to Sveio to ascend Hopsfjellet and Staupefjellet . This included first taking the express bus (and ferry) to Heiane. Here I left the express bus and after waiting around 20 minutes continued south on a local bus. This allowed me to get off at a stop closer to the trailhead and thus greatly reduce the walking distance along the main road (especially as there is no sidewalk). Initially, I had planned to get off at the stop called Hope, but at the last minute figured out that Flåtene would be even closer. The result was a less than 250 meters walk along the main road before reaching the marked trailhead and the small parking lot . As expected, there was no sidewalk, but thankfully there was plenty of space next to the road and for the final half there was even a railing >>>

Skiing: Fløyen and Rundemanen

Dato:
18.12.2022
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:49t
Distanse:
17,1km

A second skiing trip at Fløyen, but this time taking Fløibanen and also including a visit of Rundemanen . Overall very good conditions for skiing and more new snow than expected. The skis stayed on until the top of Øyjorden, except for most of Hellemyrstien. However there was more ice than snow, and sometimes not a lot of that either, for the final stretch from Vannverkshuset i Skiveien to Munkebotsvatnet and from there to the start of Hellemyrstien.

Skiing at Fløyen in December!

Dato:
16.12.2022
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:23t
Distanse:
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.

Short local evening hike in the snow. More tricky than usual given that the batteries of my headlamp died when I was 250 meters from the summit...
