Hiking Mount Sulafjellet with my cousin and my two sons.

Dato:
06.06.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:27t
Distanse:
11,6km

I went hiking on a very nice mountain trip on this day with my two sons Bror and Dag and my cousin Savanna . We set out from lake Mausavatnet, and climbed the mountain of the island Sula, located just south of Ålesund, up to its highest peak commonly called Vardane , 776 meters above mean sea level. The weather was nice with sunshine for most of our trip, but as we were approaching the summit, it changed within minutes to foggy, cold, rainy, and very windy; hence we were robbed of the nice view that we were anticipating to have at the peak of the mountain. I had planned to shoot a picture of Savanna and my boys with our home island of Vigra in the background, but that didn't work out... Being completly soaked by the rain, we couln't risk getting cold by waiting for the weather to improve, and >>>

A figure-of-8 hike on Godøy Island.

On this nice day, I went once again hiking on the mountain of the island Godøy, taking a different route from what I had done before. As on previous trips I parked our car at Alnes, climbed up to lake Alnesvatnet, and crossed the island close to the shore of the lake; though I also took time to visit a little peninsula and a little island in the lake, before I started climbing up to the peak Storehornet. From the mountaintop, I descended along the mountainridge Valkvæegga for a distance, then took a track down to Godøy Primary School, and finally returned to my car at Alnes jogging through the tunnel. The tunnel runs from Støbakk on one side of the island, to Alnes on the other; and it runs just beneath the mountain peak called Sloktinden. It opened in December 2006, is about 1,5 km long; >>>

A larger round trip of the mountains of the Island Godøy.

On this day we had extremely nice weather in the area, and so I had another really nice trip on the mountain of the island Godøy. I first climbed the rather steep climb from the headland/ness called Alnes up to Lake Alnesvatnet, located on a platau about 250 meters above mean sea level. Then a not-so-steep walk to the peak of mount Lesten (altitude 357 meters), from there almost down to the other end of Alnesvatnet, and directly onto a very steep climb up to the peak of Storehornet (497 meters), next onto the peak of Sloktinden (436 meters), and then all the way down to sea level again along the mountain ridge called Valkvæegga. I finally walked the old Alnes road back to Alnes where I had my car parked.

On this day I had a nice trip walking the mountains of Godøy Island. Weather was nice, and the scenenery was picturesque. The climb from the promontory of Alnes is rather steep to begin with, but you then reach a plateau at about 250 meters above mean sea level, on which is located a lake called Alnesvatnet. This lake is ideally located as a drinking water reservoir for the entire municipality of Giske, which is constituted of four inhabited islands along with a number of uninhabited islets. The lake is located substantially higher than any of the inhabited areas of the municipality, hence there's sufficient water pressure to reach all the houses in need of water. Once on the plateau, you walk along Alnesvatnet to its eastern end, and then you follow the track up a rather stony mountain edge >>>

A short trek to Mount Myklebusthornet on Ellingsøy Island

Dato:
25.04.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:40t
Distanse:
5,2km

I went for a mountain trek with my oldest son this day to the island called Ellingsøya . The island has a mountain ridge in east-west direction, which stretches along most of the island. The ridge is usually just reffered to as Ellingsøyfjellet [i.e. "the Ellingsøy mountain"], but it has several peaks along its course, called Vikenakken, Sperrenakken and Myklebusthornet, among which Myklebusthornet is the highest. We parked at the parking spot of a local football field on the north side of the island (Nes Stadion). The climb to Myklebusthornet from this spot is about 2,6 km, making the trip 5,2 km including the decent back to the parking spot. The peak is 329 meters above mean sea level, about 300 meters above the altitude at which we parked the car. The peak is located just above >>>

Hiking to Mount Ulriken in Bergen

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:15t
Distanse:
6,2km

This afternoon I had a nice trip on mount Ulriken in Bergen in wonderful sunshine. The nature's just beautiful at spring time, and as its getting gradually warmer at this time of the year, I actually had a haircut before I started hiking. For the mountain climb I used a trail that runs more or less along the cable car (or actually beneath it). To have some variation, however, I chose a different, and somewhat longer route for the descent. The descent path kind of encircles part of the mountain plateau which Ulriken is a part of, and then you descend from the plateau at a spot where the altitude is a bit lower. This longer path takes you to a number of small mountain lakes or ponds, in some of which you're allowed to have a bath i you so desire. It was still just April, however, and therefore >>>

Kveldstur til Ulriken

Dato:
29.10.2014
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Distanse:
5,0km

Jeg arbeider i Bergen, og leier en pendlerbolig i Haukelandsbakken, så jeg går ofte tur opp på Ulriken og ned igjen. Som oftest har jeg valgt traséen gjennom skogen under Ulriksbanen på vei opp, så også denne dagen. Halvveis oppe tok jeg Bergen-by-night-bildet ovenfor. Jeg fortsatte opp til toppen (med toppen mener jeg her vest-toppen på 607 m.o.h.).

Til Myklebusthornet på Ellingsøya med Dag

Fjelltur

Det var min sønn Dag som denne dagen spurte om jeg ville være med ham opp på Myklebusthornet på Ellingsøya, og jeg takket ja til det. Han hadde vært der oppe flere ganger før, og var godt kjent. Vi parkerte ved skolen/idrettshallen på Vik, og fulgte skogsveien derfra oppover til vi kom opp på ryggen mellom Vikanakken og Sperrenakken . Omtrent akkurat oppe på vannskillet tok vi av fra veien, og fulgte en sti vestover mot Sperrenakken [320 m.o.h.] og Myklebusthornet [329 m.o.h.]. Stien vestover er grei å følge. Vi passerte først Kleiva [214 m.o.h.], og kom så til Sperrenakken [320 m.o.h.], som her på Peakbook går under betegnelsen Myklebusthornet Østre. Like vest for Sperrenakken er det en litt bratt skrent som man må ta seg ned, men som er helt grei så lenge det ikke er vått >>>

On Mount Ulriken with my Son Dag

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur

I had been working at the university hospital in Bergen since september 2013, and now my oldest son Dag was visiting me in Bergen; and so in the afternoon we decided to hike up to the summit of Mount Ulriken. The mountain has a cable car that you may use to get up there, but our intention with the ascent was to get a workout, and so we abandoned the cable car, and started to climb along a trail just beneath were the cable car goes. The first part of our trail goes through forest, but as you approach the top of the mountain, the trees become more scarce, and all of a sudden it is gone. On Mount Ulriken, what seems to be the top of the mountain as you're climbing, isn't actually the summit of the mountain; it's just a knoll or a ridge a little bit west of the summit. The real top of the mountain >>>
