Dorfertal next Kals am Grossglockner
- Dato:
- 13.07.2016
- Turtype:
- Fjelltur
- Turlengde:
- 2:15t
- Distanse:
- 6,9km
We started from the Spöttling-Taurer region above Kals am Grossglockner and walked directly into the Daberklamm from there. This narrow canyon is interesting to visit and from an observation platform, one has great views into the canyon. Soon after, we reached the beautiful Dorfertal, which extends far north from there and offers wonderful hiking opportunities (easy and demanding). We went a little into Dorfertal, reaching Bergeralm, where we turned around. On our way back, we decided to follow the old connection of Dorfertal with Kals, crossing over Moaalm. Also from there, one enjoys very nice views, both into Dorfertal and over Kals. From there, it was then a quick and easy descent back to the Spöttling-Taurer area. All in all, this hike was mostly relaxing and easy---in the beautiful >>>
Blauspitze near Kals am Grossglockner

- Distanse:
- 17,0km
We started from Spöttling-Taurer in the upper end of Kals am Grossglockner, crossed over the Kalserbach there to the western side of the valley, and ascended from there along the Mitterbach-valley towards Kereralm. From there, we continued upwards towards the Hohes Tor. At about 2000m sea-level, we ended up in a thunderstorm and started to feel somewhat uneasy, exposing us too much to the bad weather. We therefore turned around and descended, again, following a forrest road southwards from Kereralm (at about 1800m sea-level). We connected to the place, where a lift comes up from Grossdorf, connecting to Ganotzalm, further up. We continued on the forrest road, which leads up to the hut Glocknerblick on about 1950m sea-level. There, we had a nice rest and filled up some energy (unfortunately, >>>
Livarden from Unneland (wild!)
- Dato:
- 25.06.2016
- Turtype:
- Fjelltur
- Turlengde:
- 3:00t
- Distanse:
- 7,8km
We parked near Li, Unneland, and continued, walking, along Unnelandsvegen until we came to Gullfjellsvegen. We followed this road just for a few meters ( around the corner , basically), before we stepped over the little water, which comes down from Seterdalen. After a little forth and back, we found what looked like the path up towards Rambjørgsgjelet (in southern direction). At Glisningane, this path gets very close to Rambjørgselva, which jumps down through Rambjørgsgjelet. We followed this path as much up as we could, until it ended for sure at about 200m above sealevel. There it was pretty unclear of how to proceed best (through the wild). Remembering, what the map looked like (roughly), we decided to step over Rambjørgselva to the other (western) side and ascend (steeply!!) towards >>>
Evening hike on Algrøyna
- Dato:
- 23.06.2016
- Turtype:
- Fottur
- Turlengde:
- 3:00t
- Distanse:
- 5,6km
We drove to Algrøyna (out on Sotra) and parked along Vestavegen. From there, we walked a little along the small roads, following Kongvikvegen---basically straight to the west. Near Kongvikvegen 51 (on the left side of the road), we descended towards a path that leads around this building and then southwards towards Kungvika. There, we crossed over to the south of Kungvika, in order to walk out towards Barmaneset. Following the path, we quickly reached the western end of this peninsula, called Langtrotten. There, we had a nice break, before returning. On the way back, we chose a different path, walking along Storavatnet (in the north of it). Walking this way, one ends up in a narrow valley that connects to Storvegen. From there, it's just a few steps back to Vestavegen.

Sveningen from Hausdalen
- Dato:
- 12.06.2016
- Turtype:
- Fjelltur
- Turlengde:
- 6:30t
- Distanse:
- 13,5km
This time, we had two cars, so we parked one at the very end of Hausdalen (where Brekkedalen starts). We then took the other car to get to our starting point, a little further out Hausdalen (near Samdalsvatnet, Tømmervika, Straumsrinden, Hausdalsvegen 425---about 3.4 km away from the parking at the very end of Hausdalen). This start point for the hike is not 100% obvious and one needs to know, where to leave the street in Hausdalen. One then drives just a few meters up a gravel road, before there is space for two or three cars on the left side. From there, we followed the forrest road, first over Straumsrinden (passing by Samdalsvatnet). On its southern / southwestern end, one uses two bridges to get over the stream that continues further out Hausdalen. Only shortly after, one crosses >>>
Lyderhorn from Kjøkkelvik
- Dato:
- 11.06.2016
- Turtype:
- Fjelltur
- Turlengde:
- 1:30t
- Distanse:
- 3,5km
We started from nearby Kjøkkelvik school, ascending via Lyderhornslien into Olderdalen. The path follows a nice ridge up (first into southeastern direction, towards Små-Lyderhorn), before turning (steeply) left, right after reaching the saddle point. From there, it's then directly up to Lyderhorn (in northern direction). From the top of Lyderhorn, we continued northwards (and down). We first thought to step down a path to the upper end of Lyderhornslien, which is somehow parallel to the one we took up (a little further north). After having passed by the entry point to this path (which always is a little tricky to find!), we continued and decided to take the next path down (forking off to the left, west, right before getting to Høgenuten). This path leads to the upper end of Nedbergelien. >>>
Sydpolen from Brekkedalen and more

We parked at the end of the road in Hausdalen, near the bridge to Brekkedalen. We then followed the gravel road into Brekkedalen, first, before leaving this road (to the left) and ascending to Sydpolen via the steep ridge that comes down into Brekkedalen. We have hiked this route several times before and always this part (up to Sydpolen from Brekkedalen) is a special (and nice!) hiking challenge. This time, my challenge doubled as the sole of one of my hiking shoes detached just after 100m up, or so. With a short cord that I took of my backbag, I managed to bind the loose sole back to my shoe (somehow), but hiking was definitely different, afterwards! :-) With this short delay, we ended up at Sydpolen a few minutes later than expected---still, we enjoyed this part of the hike very much, >>>

- Dato:

I started from Varden and went up Knappen, first. From there, I connected to Bønes, and from up there, further to Gullstølen and Gullsteinen. I then decided to also continue to Løvstakken, before descending back to Fyllingsdalen.

Kanadaskogen with Knappen, Svartaberget, etc.

- Turlengde:
- 3:00t
- Distanse:
- 12,6km
Starting at Varden in Fyllingsdalen, I first got over and up to Knappen (around Knappatjørna). From Knappen, I continued to Eldtona and further over the top and down again to Bjørgelien. Following that street downwards, I got to Bjøgeveien in order to cross over Kjerreidvika to Bjørndalsskogen (right behind the supermarked along Kjerreidvika there is a steep path that leads up to Bjørndalsskogen). I then crossed the living area at Bjørndalsskogen, before ascending to Straumsfjellet, right north of Bjørndalsskogen. From Straumsfjellet, I found a path down to Bjørndalsbrotet, where I crossed underneath Bjørgeveien over to Kanadaskogen. I continued towards Bjørndalsvatnet, first, getting into the green area as soon as possible. Without really entering the path that rounds about >>>
Kristinuten
- Dato:

- Turtype:
- Fjelltur
- Turlengde:
- 4:00t
- Distanse:
- 8,3km
We started from the road between Ulvik and Osa, driving basically to the top of the saddle (between Ulvikafjorden and Osafjorden). There, we continued a little bit further on a side road the passes by Øydve. When getting close to the forrest, we parked and started hiking. The first 300 height meters are convenient on a forrest road that winds back and forth towards Liastølane. Then, one needs to pay attention. A sign ("Kleppe", I think) tells to leave the forrest road and continue along a minor path. This trail is really hard to find---the best tip is to look out for small stones that mark the path. One first ascends further through the forrest before reaching the tree line very soon. From there, it is basically straight up to the top of Kristinuten. It is recommended to >>>
