Lauvåsen in Jordalen

Dato:
19.01.2025
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
5:00t
Distanse:
54,0km

We had discussed a possible hike up to Storsåta, northeast of Jordalen. The first qualification that happened was our decision to approach Jordalen with our bikes. All this worked nicely and smoothely, using the bike-tunnel between Fyllingsdalen and Minde. The next qualification then was to cross over to Munkebotn via Fløyfjellet. After checking out two options to do so that did not work out (at Lappen and Knatten we read that cycling is not allowed on Søre Kamvei!), we took a route up from Skansemyren. Passing by Skomakerdiket, we then quickly crossed over Fløyfjellet before making it further to Storevatnet and then further down to Munkebotn (the descent from Fløyfjellet down to Munkebotn is quite steep, though). At Munkebotsvatnet, we made a short break to enjoy our packed lunch. >>>

Storhelleren/Bjørndalshelleren

Dato:
18.01.2025
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
17,1km

Given a rather wet winter day, we decided to explore a place, which we had on our radar for a while, already: Storhelleren/Bjørndalshelleren near Loddefjord. To add a bit to this plan, we decided to combine this excursion with a bike-trip there and back. After first cycling north on Bjørgeveien into the direction of Loddefjord, we chose to cross the bridge at Hetlevikstraumen and continue to Loddefjord on the west-side of Bjørndalspollen. At Loddefjord, we once again ended up in this dead-end loop for pedestrians at the north end of Bjørndalspollen (without any reasonable option to cross the road over to Loddefjord -- what a city planning mistake?!!). After quickly looping back, we made it onto the road and thus further northwards to the access road for the transformer at Grøvledalen. >>>

Storhovden with snow shoes

Dato:
04.01.2025
Turtype:
Trugetur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
6,4km

With quite a bit of snow around, still, we thought that it was the right day for taking our snow shoes out and into Kanadaskogen! From Varden, we first headed to Hesjaholten, where we put on the snow shoes. After stepping up (and around) Litla Krokatjørna, we crossed a hill to connect to Stora Krokatjørna. There, we decided to also include a visit to Storhovden (via Syningen). After a short round on the heights of Storhovden, we started our walk back. To round this excursion, we aimed at Langaheia via Spelhaugen. Always fun to venture into deep snow with snow shoes, but not easy-going to make many kilometers under such circumstances! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Stroll through snow and sun around Bjørndalsvatnet

Dato:
01.01.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
8,2km

A snowy day with nice weather: a good reason for making a stroll in the neighborhood! We started with Eldtona on Knappefjellet before "turning around" and heading northwards to make a round around Bjørndalsvatnet before returning back to Varden. Not a very long hike, but very nice with the snow and some sun, also! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .
