Haukeberget

Dato:
25.01.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
0:37t
Distanse:
2,2km

A short hike on a very windy Saturday for a visit of Haukeberget . After the walk up from Tertneskrysset, I located an unmarked trail at the northeastern corner of the football field at Åstveit that took me all the way to the summit. I continued northeast along a weaker trail to connect with the paved road and then followed various roads and trails to Åsane terminal where I took a short bus ride to the start of Almåsvegen for a hike to Furelegene and Eikåsen .

Tangelandsheiane

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:28t
Distanse:
4,3km

Short Sunday hike in Arna to visit Tangelandsheiane Øst , another recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . I started by taking the train and bus to Espeland. Here I first had a quick look at Espeland stasjon , an old station on the original railway line from Bergen to Voss , before heading west to the unmarked trailhead next to a small playground. On my way to Ågotaskaret I made a short off-trail detour to Oksla, which, if nothing else, provided a nice view towards Tangelandsheiane. After a brief visit of the lower western summit of Tangelandsheiane I followed the trails east to the higher eastern summit which provided surprisingly good views! The hike was concluded by returning north along the trail and then finally connecting with the roads and aiming for the bus stop in Arnatveitvegen. In summary, Tangelandsheiane was overall a positive surprise! Lots of trails of ok quality and great views >>>

Morkafjellet from Verpelstad

Dato:
18.01.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:56t
Distanse:
7,0km

After three days on the couch due to a bad cold, I recovered just in time for a short Saturday hike to Morkafjellet with Petter and Endre . Petter picked me up at my place at 08:00 and we met up with Endre at the surprisingly large parking lot at Verpelstad a bit more than an hour later. Thanks to an external report we easily located the unmarked trailhead behind the houses just northeast of the parking lot and from there followed a partially marked trail all the way to Verpelstadstølen (except for doing our own "shortcut" just below the cabin when briefly losing the trail, see the return track for the correct route). From Verpelstadstølen there was a weaker trail up the first steep slope but soon we were simply making our own way towards the summit. There were several large patches of snow that had to be crossed but there was significantly less snow than expected for the middle of >>>

Kubrekka from Nedre Sandven

Dato:
11.01.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:52t
Distanse:
4,8km

When my initial plan to ski across Vidden was cancelled after seeing a picture of how little snow was left at Rundemanen , I instead went for yet another minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Kubrekka . I started from the bus stop at Nedre Sandven and from there followed the snow-covered gravel road north until being less than 200 meters from the summit. I then put on the gaiters and headed off-trail towards the summit in knee-deep snow. As I got closer to the summit the deep snow was replaced by a dense forest of spruce trees with tons of dry branches trying to block the way. The summit itself had no views and is generally of no interest to normal hikers. I returned the same way and then took the bus back home from Øvre Sandven.

Skiing: Fløyen to Lønborg

Dato:
10.01.2025
Turtype:
Langrennstur
Turlengde:
3:46t
Distanse:
12,6km

Afternoon skiing at Fløyen with some of my colleagues, including one from Costa Rica and his visiting friend from Columbia, neither of which had ever skied before. Both did remarkably well though and made it through a round in the lower half "lysløypen" without any injuries. When the rest of the party then headed back to Fløibanen, I ascended to Brushytten on my own and from there followed the roads to the top of Øyjorden. The skis stayed on until the top of Olinestien, even though the snow conditions for the descent to Munkebotsvatnet were significantly worse than a week earlier.
