Kubrekka from Nedre Sandven

Dato:
11.01.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:52t
Distanse:
4,8km

When my initial plan to ski across Vidden was cancelled after seeing a picture of how little snow was left at Rundemanen , I instead went for yet another minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Kubrekka . I started from the bus stop at Nedre Sandven and from there followed the snow-covered gravel road north until being less than 200 meters from the summit. I then put on the gaiters and headed off-trail towards the summit in knee-deep snow. As I got closer to the summit the deep snow was replaced by a dense forest of spruce trees with tons of dry branches trying to block the way. The summit itself had no views and is generally of no interest to normal hikers. I returned the same way and then took the bus back home from Øvre Sandven.

Skiing: Fløyen to Lønborg

Dato:

Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:46t
Distanse:
12,6km

Afternoon skiing at Fløyen with some of my colleagues, including one from Costa Rica and his visiting friend from Columbia, neither of which had ever skied before. Both did remarkably well though and made it through a round in the lower half "lysløypen" without any injuries. When the rest of the party then headed back to Fløibanen, I ascended to Brushytten on my own and from there followed the roads to the top of Øyjorden. The skis stayed on until the top of Olinestien, even though the snow conditions for the descent to Munkebotsvatnet were significantly worse than a week earlier.

Distanse:

The plan was to take Fløibanen and start skiing from the upper station, I had even bought the ticket, but when seeing the long queue I changed my mind and instead carried the skis up to just below Skomakerdiket instead. Here the skis came on and stayed on until the top of Olinestien. The snow conditions were good but a minor snowstorm at Rundemanen made me glad that I was in familiar terrain.

Søyleåsen and Storeklubben

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:39t
Distanse:
5,0km

A short winter adventure in Arna to ascend two recently added peaks on the Alle topper i Bergen list . I got off the bus at "Haukeland sør" and after a short walk south along the main road I started my ascent to Søyleåsen , first along the road up to the house south of the summit and then off-trail in knee-deep snow to the highest point. No views from the summit but a nice view across Søylevatnet could be obtained further south. I followed my footprints back to the main road and then headed east to Eikeli and Storeklubben . The area on the west side of the road north of the houses was blocked by an electric fence and I therefore continued another 200 meters before beginning my off-trail ascent, also here in deep snow. The summit was easily reached and was thankfully just outside the fenced area. Limited views and I quickly returned >>>
