Exploring the city center of Sopron
- Dato:

- Distanse:
- 2,7km
We had some spare time in Sopron, Hungary, which we used to walk around the historic center of the town. This brought us by mighty city walls, long out of their original use, the central square, as well as some unexpected sights (such as Fekete Elefánt cégér). Visiting Sopron can be recommended, even though making many height meters is difficult there! :-)

Fuglenosi from Gravalen and Hjelle via Avdal gard

With many days in advance, we originally had thought to hike up to Stølsmaradalstinden from Gravdalen on this day. Given the weather (medium-high clouds, well engulving the highest tops, with some precipitation every now and then) and the rather wet walk through Gravdalen on the day before, we decided to drop our Stølsmaradalstinden plan and instead do something below the clouds. Still recalling the map that had suggested that one could find a trail, crossing over at Åsetvatnet and then continuing further along the heights to Stølsmaradalen, and also having read that the trail between Avdal gard and Stølsmaradalen should be nice and well-marked, we decided to hike first to Fuglenosi and then to find a way down to the trail between Avdal gard and Stølsmaradalen (in order to walk this trail then down to Avdal gard). >>>
Gravdalen via Botnanosi from Øvre Årdal
- Dato:
- 29.06.2024
- Turtype:
- Fottur
- Turlengde:
- 7:00t
- Distanse:
- 13,4km
Our original plan was to first go up to Gravdalen and then, on the next day, further up to Stølsmaradalstinden. The weather forecast, however, did not look all too promising until only shortly before we left for Øvre Årdal. On the day before we wanted to start our two-days hike, however, the forecast became better (not really good, though) and so we decided to at least begin with the first planned leg (from Øvre Årdal to Gravdalen via Botnanosi). After finding a suitable place in Øvre Årdal, where we could leave our car for the night, also, we started the hike following a well-marked trail up to Ramnaberget, i.e., the impressive cliff directly north of Øvre Årdal. After enjoying the views from Ramnaberget (and a nice little chat with two hikers from England), we continued along >>>
Molden from Marifjøra (up via Svåi)

- Distanse:
- 15,7km
We left Bergen early in the morning with a plan to start hiking around noon-time. The plan was to hike up to Molden. After searching a little here on Peakbook , we got inspired by Jørn Håvard Ask , who wrote in his trip report " trip report " that hiking Molden from the north was really good! :-) We thus drove to Marifjøra, where road #55 (Lustravegen) comes down to meet Gaupnefjorden (only a few kilometers before reaching Gaupne). The idea was to leave the car there, ready to be picked up after coming down from Molden in Marifjøra, and then first walk Eikjastrondsvegen (along Gaupnefjorden) to the southeast and the start our ascent near Svåi. After about 2km on Eikjastrondsvegen, we found a trail-head for Molden, just meters before reaching Svåi. The original plan had been to first walk up to the highest house >>>
Knappen

- 4,8km
To get some fresh air, we decided to do a quick round over Knappen, approaching it via Sandeidbrotet (up to Eldtona, first). After crossing over to Såta on Knappen, we then descended furthre southwards (via Hesthaugen). Before stepping out on Knappenveien, we saw some (new?) signs near the sports area, suggesting a trail through the forest to Knappentunet. Following this trail, we first made quick progress into the right direction. After a while, however, the trail seemed to cross over some wet area at Hesthaugen, becoming less visible (or not at all, actually). Following our basic sense of orientation, we crossed through the forest into the right direction, connecting to Knappenveien at Knappentunet in the south of Knappatjørna. From there, it was then straight-forward (mostly) to >>>
Morning walk in Odense

- Distanse:
- 9,1km
I was up early and had time to walk from downtown Odense to the University ( SDU , i.e., Syddansk Universitet). Starting from the main railway station, I first headed to Kongens Have, where I passed by Odense Slot. I then turned left to pass by H.C. Andersens Hus, before thereafter heading down to Odense Å at Brogade. From there, I basically followed the course of Odense Å upstream, passing through Eventyrhaven and then Munke Mose. Following Odense Å further upstream, I headed towards the Zoo of Odense. When I came to Erik Bøghs Sti, I followed it up to Langelinie. This street then brought me to Læssøgade, which I crossed to continue along Kaalundsvej. Via Skovgyden, I got to Hjallesevej, which I walked southwards only a short stretch to get into Bjørnemosevej. Walking then more or >>>

Driving north from Fusa, into the direction of Samnanger, we passed through Eikelandsosen, first, continuing further northwards along road 48. At Sævell, right after passing by Sævellavatnet, we turned right onto Sævellvegen. Near Høgehaugen, we paid a bit of road-toll in order to continue along Sævellvegen. Driving carefully (Sævellvegen is not paved further inwards), we arrived at Kjøpmannavadet shortly after. There, right next to the bridge, we parked at the side of the road. Crossing over the bridge southwards, we started our hike along a forest road that leads to Breivatnet just a little down the road. There, one crosses over Breielva right next to a small cabin right at Breivatnet. A marked trail then leads up to Helane and from there further towards the lower end of Lisetredalen. >>>
Kletten from Strandvik

- Distanse:
- 2,2km
The evening was nice and with plenty of daylight still to use it was just fine with a short round up to Kletten before calling it a day. :-) The plan was to approach Kletten from the east (from Strandvik) and doing so was (almost) straight-forward. Only once, at the very end of Strandvikvegen at house 529, a bit of back-tracking was needed to reconnect with the trail (that is starting a bit further north). Then, instead of going up to Kletten at once, I first surrounded Kletten via Klettaltanen in its south, before eventually ascending to Kletten (then from its west). After crossing over Kletten, I then descended northwards to Strandvikvegen, which I then followed back to Strandvik. Quite nice that one can see Melderskin and Englafjellet from Kletten! :-)

Given a very nice (and warm!) day, we aimed at hiking Fusafjellet from the south, starting in Strandvik. We first headed into the valley between Fusafjellet in the northeast and Bogafjellet in the west, where Vikaelva comes down. At about 80 masl, in the northeast of Nyland, the valley opens up a little and we left the main gravel road, stepping "directly north", aiming at the little saddle in the east of the small hill that "sits" there in the middle of the valley. The plan was to continue further upwards (into the direction of Langnuen) from there, but before we did that we first explored this little hills for a few minutes, enjoying some nice views southwards from it. We then followed a forest road that ascends the relatively steep southwestern side of Langnuen. >>>
