New Løvstien (again)

Dato:
24.12.2015
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
5,2km

We parked along the road Klauvsteinen and walked from there---first along Klauvsteinen, before then takinng a pedestrians path up to Øvre Riplegården. After walking over the saddle (on Øvre Riplegården), we continued to the newest section of Løvstien. We then followed Løvstien down and towards Bergen, turning around the mountain along with the path. Before Løvstien gets all the way down, connecting to Løvstakkveien, some new paths lead up to a vantage spot called Skillingsbollen. The way back from there followed then basically the same as for getting there.

New Løvstien

Dato:
19.12.2015
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
0:45t
Distanse:
3,8km

We parked along the road Klauvsteinen and walked from there (first along Klauvsteinen, before then takinng a pedestrians path up to Øvre Riplegården). After walking over the saddle (on Øvre Riplegården), we found the entry point to the newest section of Løvstien. We then followed Løvstien down and towards Bergen, turning around the mountain along with the path. A lot of efforts have been put into making this path a nice one, really! :-) At a vantage point (above St. Markus kirke), we then turned around and walked back. Given the very wet weather, this was at least a short walk to get some fresh air. :-) The city of Bergen writes about the opening .

Storhovden in Kanadaskogen

Dato:
12.12.2015
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
7,1km

We started from Varden, entering Kanadaskogen near Hesjaholten. From there, we mostly followed small paths---if paths at all---approaching and ascending to Storhovden. Back, we first descended a little wilder from Storhovden than what would have been necessary---not recommended, actually. We then connected back to Syningen and from there we reached Stora Krokatjørna on a nice path. From there, we connected back to Hesjaholten, passing by Litla Krokatjørna, also. Selected photos are available as Google+ photo album .

Around Spåkevatnet

Dato:
06.12.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
8,6km

We parked near Arna Stadion and crossed Spåkelva where the sports flat covers a part of it in the southwest. A few meters up from there and we came to Spåkevegen, which lead us a short bit towards south, along Spåkelva, before a sign helps to find the ascent to Beitelen (departing from Spåkevegen to the right). A well visible path leads up a gentle ridge that leads to a small top just underneath Beitelen---from there, one enjoys a good overview over Spåkevatnet. From there, it's only a few meters to the top of Beitelen---actually, one first gets to a saddle and if one really needs to visit the very top of Beitelen (not that great, however), then one would first turn right at this saddle. We reached the top quickly, mostly in order to see, whether there would be nice views northwards >>>

Lyderhorn

Dato:
28.11.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:15t
Distanse:
3,5km

We parked near Kjøkkelvik school and started our ascent of Lyderhorn via Lyderhornslien. While the main path up Lyderhorn (from there) departs from the road already in one of the lower turns, we aimed for a less used, small path that departs from Lyderhornslien at this road's very end---right next to the building blocks on top (pass by the larger building blocks, heading north, for a few meters until you see wooden stairs leading up right behind one of the blocks). From there, it's straight-forward to follow the path upwards. Before getting to the top of Lyderhorn, one meets a more frequented path that leads to the top from the northern side. In half an hour, we reached the top and enjoyed some strong November weather impressions there. We basically returned on the same path down, avoiding >>>

Krånipa, Holdhusfjellet, and Raudfjellet

Dato:
22.11.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
10,6km

I parked on a convenient parking spot (for several cars!) at Nordre Skulstad, not far from where the paved road ends (one could, probably, drive all the way up to the dam, but it's not far from there anyway). From there, I first walked up to the dam (on a gravel road), before I turned right, southwards, and there crossed the stream that comes down from Skulstadvatnet on a bridge right underneath the dam. On the other side, another gravel road winds along Skulstadvatnet towards Kråaustebotn. I followed this road until it turns "too much" left (in northeastern direction)---there, I decided to leave the road, using one of the minor ridges that run down from Krånipa towards Kråaustebotn in northern direction, aiming for the ridge that would bring me up to Krånipa. On the frozen >>>

Furekampane & Skavdalen

Dato:
21.11.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:00t
Distanse:
8,1km

We parked near Dyngelandsvatnet and rounded the small lake on the southeastern side, then ascending to Fjellsenden. From there, we basically walked all over the long ridge of Furukampane. On the other end, at Ravnabrotet, we got to look down on Grimevatnet. From there, we turned right and back, a little, descending into Skavdalen (and crossing it close to the northern end of a small lake which is located right underneath Langavatnet). We climbed up on the eastern side to Øvre Skavdalen and from there further to a small top underneath Brattlandsfjellet. There we turned back, descending again into Øvre Skavdalen and from there back to the small lake (but now to its southern end). From there, it is only a few steps to the northern end of Langavatnet and a path leads along this lake on >>>

Knappen

Dato:
08.11.2015
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
1:00t
Distanse:
4,3km

From Varden, we walked over the bridge over Bjørgeveien and then up to Knappen. Back, we descended on the east and north of Knappatjørna, before returning to Varden. Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen .

Sydpolen

Dato:
18.10.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:30t
Distanse:
14,6km

We parked at the end of Hausdalen and started with walking in Brekkjedalen (until a height of about 260mosl). Basically, where a power line mast stands close to the gravel road, a path diverts to the left, marking the beginning of the ascent to Sydpolen. Down in Brekkjedalen, late morning frost was still omnipresent, but after only a few meters of our ascent over the ridge upwards, we "entered" the sun and enjoyed a beautiful autumn day! It took us 60 mins. from the gravel road and up to the top of Sydpolen---not too bad, maybe! :-) From Sydpolen, after a short break, we continued in northeastern direction, rounding Gullfjelltjørnane in a counterclockwise manner. Near Gullfjellet (not Gullfjelltoppen), we connected to the main path that leads up and down Gullfjellet via Redningshytten. >>>

Lyderhorn

Dato:
17.09.2015
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
13,0km

Quick excursion to Lyderhorn: First with the bike along Bjørgeveien and up to the new highway crossing near Liavatnet; then from there, walking, westwards and up in the direction of Grøvledalen (between Skarpafjellet and Lyderhorn). From the saddle, basically right underneath the power lines, then northwards and towards Lyderhorn. After a bit of up and down, the actual ascent to Lyderhorn is steep and nice. Down from Lyderhorn, I first followed the path that connects to Kjøkkelvikveien, further down, in the west of Lyderhorn, but before actually turning right in order to descend towards the west, I turned left (and towards the east), searching a connection to the path that I had taken up. I found my way, but mostly without a path, though. I followed that path I had take up (from Skarpafjellet) >>>
