Nice round around Fedje

Dato:
19.06.2021
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
11,0km

We took the ferry to Fedje and started our hike around the island from there. Our plan was to round Fedje in clockwise direction. Accordingly, we headed southwestwards, first, to pass by Husavatnet on its western side. Continuing in southwestern direction, we got around the wetter inner areas of Fedje near the west coast of the island. After walking by Vassviketjørna, we made a short detour to Vassvika to enjoy a short lunch break. From there, we continued further southwards until we were very close to Hellisøy with its impressive lighthouse. We then switched over to the eastern side of the island by following Fyrsundvegen. After a few steps on Stormarkvegen, we turned onto Mortevikvegen, which brought us to the head of the trail along the eastern coast of Fedje. Following this trail >>>

Søtefjellet from Hausdalen via Åsen

Dato:
06.06.2021
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
5:30t
Distanse:
11,3km

With the promise of a nice afternoon ahead of us and knowing the days are long during the Norwegian summer, we headed for Hausdalen and a hike that we had thought about for quite a while (it had to wait for the right day!). The main idea was to start in Samdalen (a long way into Hausdalen) and then hike to Åsen first (a kind of smallish hill that nonetheless peaks out from its exposed position at the junction of Hausdalen and Brekkjedalen). From there, the idea was to attempt an ascent to Søtefjellet, from where we knew that it was straight-forward to hike down along the long ridge that leads in southwestern direction towards Ulvvatnet. After driving into Hausdalen from the very south of Kalandsvatnet (along E39 in the south of Bergen), we found a suitable place right next to the road, >>>

Round around Lerøyna

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
6,4km

We thought to explore one of the nearby islands and chose Lerøyna, between Hjellestad and Klokkarvik. Leaving the car in Hjellestad, we took the ferry to Lerøyna, landing on the very western side. Aiming at one round around the island, we started in southeastern direction. Within about 100m from the ferry stop, we came to the place, where during WWII a POW camp was (in Greftvikdalen). Walking through one of the tunnels from that camp (most of them have been closed off by now), we came to a place, right next to Lerøyosen, which is eerily idyllic, given the grim past of this place. From there, we stepped through the green into southeastern direction, passing by a larger number of relatively new houses at the sea in their north. Continuing again through a bit of green (a little further >>>

Round around Jordavatnet

Turlengde:

Distanse:
6,0km

The later afternoon seemed to be OK for a short walk and so we drove into the direction of Fana. Before the street starts to lead up to Fanafjellet, we turned left near the church of Fana and continued into the direction of Kalandsvatnet. Once there, and instead of following the "main road" in the northwest of Kalandsvatnet, we followed the very narrow road in the southwest of Kalandsvatnet into the direction of Kismul. At Ytre Sandvika, we parked right next to the road and started our walk from there. We first walked a little bit "back" (in northern direction), following a side road that is a bit higher up than Kismulvegen. Near house #141, this road splits again and we continued along the upper part. Maybe only 100m further along this stretch, we turned left (onto >>>

Austefjellet via Kurlarinden

Dato:
22.05.2021
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
7,5km

With the goal to do some nice, medium-sized hike, we aimed at Austefjellet, starting from Osavatnet. We thus drove into the direction of Arna (from Bergen), leaving the main road shortly before coming close to Haukelandsvatnet. Driving first towards Unneland, we then continued along Gullfjellsvegen to get up to the parking place in the north of Osavatnet. Walking first along Gullfjellsvegen further eastwards, we came to the place in the west of Taushaugen, where the roads split (with the "main road", Gullfjellsvegen, making a turn to the left, while a minor road continues straight-ahead, into the direction of Kurlatjørna). Following this minor road, we soon after had passed by Kurlatjørna (on our right, south of us), coming to the end of this road (it's continuing behind a closed >>>

Nice evening walk around Småvatnet

Dato:
20.05.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,8km

With still some nice light to go, we decided to use the evening for a quick excursion into our (extended) neighborhood. After driving a bit towards the west of Bergen, we left the main road before getting all the way to Sotrabroen and continued along Alvøveien until we came close to Småvatnet. After parking near the north end of Småvatnet, we started our hike around this lake in clockwise direction. We first followed a minor forest road in northeastern direction, which eventually would have brought us to the soccer fields in the north of Småvatnet. Before getting close to them, however, we turned right (and in southern direction), ascending to the little cliff that extends towards the south from the soccer fields. Once up there, we then continued along minor trails to stay close to >>>

Evening walk to Mindebakken

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
4,0km

To get a bit of fresh air after another day of home office, we drove to the parking at Øvre Kråkenes at the southern end of Løvstien and started from there. Before continuing into the direction of Løvstien, we first made a quick detour to what possibly is called Casperkollen, on the southern side of the parking place. After quickly walking up and down this little height, we crossed over the road and continued "in parallel" to Løvstien. After crossing over Lerkhaugen, we crossed Løvstien and made a quick ascent to Lisahaugen, also. On the other, northeastern side of Lisahaugen, we followed the ridge east of Løvstien upwards until we crossed Løvstien once again to get closer to Mindebakken at Litla Langafjellet. There, we then followed a trail that for the first 40 height >>>

Steinafjellet and Skjerhaugen

Distanse:
3,0km

Being already very close, I decided to make a quick excursion to Steinafjellet and the coastal area there. After parking next to the school in Landro, my first "challenge" was to get behind the used areas (towards the open landscape with Steinafjellet). I found a way to pass by a farm there, but would have found it even better with a trail head to use. Once behind the farm area, proceeding to Steinafjellet was quick and easy. Once there, I decided to walk a little further (towards the coast) and started to do so in northwestern direction from Steinafjellet. This brought me within a few minutes to a little height, just in the south of Sørdalen. In order to get even closer to the sea, I then descended into Sørdalen, choosing a place which was a little steeper than what was just >>>

Visiting Myrdal Våpenlager and Skavdalsfjellet

Distanse:
7,9km

With the weather being forecasted as "grayish", the plan was to do something below the higher tops. Ever since we had visited Bautasteinen in the north of Krokvatnet near the top of Livarden , which made us read up on Johannes Dyngeland and related history, we had a little plan "on the shelf" to "one day" go and search for this place in Langedalen, where they apparently had hidden weapons while resisting the NS-occupation of Norway. We started in Nedre Dyngeland, where it is not really easy to find an appropriate parking spot. After passing by Grøvlet in the north of Dyngelandsvatnet, we approached the saddle in the north of Fjellet (marked with Fjellsenden on the map) on something that could be called a minor trail. Once on the saddle, we decided to also include a short detour via Fjellet, stepping up to its "top" >>>

After starting our day with some scepticism regarding the expected weather, we then decided to still head for a nearby hike. Double-checking the weather prediction map suggested that the south of Bergen may see somewhat better wheater. We thus aimed at a hike there, not too far from Bergen, and since we had not been on Storekvitefjellet, we decided to give it a try. :-) After first driving to Fana, we then crossed Fanafjellet von Fanafjellsvegen until we came close to Nordvika on the southern side of Fanafjellet. There we parked next to the road and started our hike towards Stonghaugen, first. The southwestern side of Stonghaugen is a bit steep, but not really any problem to get up to. Already a bit up there, we enjoyed our first nice views back to Nordvika. From Stonghaugen, it then >>>
