Exploring the dunes north of Den Haag

Dato:
01.04.2018
Turtype:
Sykkeltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
38,5km

We rented bikes from the train station Den Haag HS and biked first through the nice park Haagsche Bosch. We then cycled around the large park of Clingendael, before we entered the dunes in the north of Den Haad near the International Courthouse. We then enjoyed biking northwards (and "around"), getting to the very nice museum Voorlinden. After visiting the museum, we decided to have more of the dunes, before returning our bikes and taking the train home. Really a nice day! Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Museum Voorlinden has, of course, it's own home page .

Short excursion into Kanadaskogen (from Fyllingsdalen)

Dato:
28.02.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
2,2km

Quick winter excursion into Kanadaskogen from Fyllingsdalen. Since the weather was beautiful and the snow invited for an excursion (and there was a bit of time), I used the opportunity to do a quick excursion into the vicinity of Nipetjørna. Up and down in short time, but greatly enjoyed! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Snow-covered Liatårnet (via an unusual route)

Dato:
25.02.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
9,2km

Very nice hike over snow-covered Liatårnet! We started from the west, followed the road (towards the shooting range), before we then entered one of the main hiking paths to Liatårnet (the main route up from the west). But instead of following this path all the way up, we took a turn to the right (southeast) shortly before reaching the main west-face of Liatårnet (at about 200mosl) and connected to another, not so major path, which leads up to Liatårnet from the south. We then connected to Pyttane, walking through a lovely winter landscape, passing by Tårnavatnet. Instead of then following the main road up/down Pyttane, we continued "along the ridge towards the north" (without a path). One has to look a little, where to go, but it's quite possible (especially with enough >>>

Middendelfland

Dato:

Turtype:
Gatesykling
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
43,4km

We started from nearby the main train station in Rotterdam, where we rented a bike. We then headed into northwestern direction in order to get outside of the city. We passed by Vroesenpark and continued further towards the airport of Rotterdam. We crossed through the Park de Buitenplaats and passed by the airport on its southwestern side. Once we arrived at Doenkade, we used the bridge to get over both the highway A13 and the canal Delftsche Schie. On the other (western) side, we got down from the bridge, then following the canal Delftsche Schie northwards in its western side. Near Kandelaar we turned towards the west, heading into Middendelfland. We then surrounded the more urban area in its north, following some very nice little roads through a nice rural area. Shortly, after crossing >>>

Eikelifjellet

Dato:
05.01.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
2,5km

We started from the parking place at the end of Spelhaugen (near the Kindergarden) and took the clearly less used path into northern direction (a bit to the right from the main track up to Tennebekktjørna, also called Mørkebotn). After a short while, the hiking path then leaves the valley towards the right and (steeply) upwards. Before getting to the wet flat spot there, we first explored a little top south of it (mostly to check out the view over Spelhaugen). We then turned around, again into northern direction, got down to the wet flat, crossed it, and started our ascent to Eikelifjellet (this all isn't much of a hike, but it's very nice to go there, not at the least because Eikelifellet really is very steep at this side and one follows a little path up right next to impressive cliff >>>
