Kolbeinsvarden

Dato:
27.09.2015
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
7,3km

Aiming for a quick sunday afternoon hike, we drove to Askøy and found our way to Bergheim. Only a few meters into Bergheimsvegen, we found a place to stop and a path that would lead to Kolbeinsvarden. Instead of directly going there, however, we first ascended to Birkafjellet, which is a nice cliff right over Kleppe with great views! From there, we followed the path northwards (and downwards) until we came to a fence that protects Kleppevatnet. The path continues right next to the fence and we followed it further, searching for the right spot to ascend to Kolbeinsvarden. After a short detour -- basically, we followed the path along the fence a little too far, we found the (pretty well visible) path and ascended through a nice little valley up to the heights right underneath Kolbeinsvarden. >>>

Lyshornet

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
8,8km

We parked right next to Pøyla/Kalvatræ and followed the gravel road that leads up to Svartavatnet/Ulvvatnet, first. That's an easy walk and one passes a point, maybe 200m before getting to the dam, where one can enjoy a really nice view over Lysefjorden! Once at the dam, one could continue on a smaller path (on the western side of Svartavatnet/Ulvvatnet), but we turned around and followed the gravel road that we had walked up, first. About half way back, right underneath Geithaugen in the west, and at about 145mosl, a nice path towards Lysehornet leaves (to the east). We followed this path (via Grønhovda) to Lysehornet and enjoyed the great views that one has from there. From Lysehornet, we descended via the other path, which leads (via Lyshornskaret) to the ruins of Lyseklosteret. >>>

Starting from a place near Øydvenstod, I first followed Osavegen up to the saddle towards Ulvik. There, I turned left, westwards, and ascended the few meters up to Håheim. From there, I followed the marked path -- in southwestern direction -- in order to get up to Åsen. It's not so clear, where the top actually is -- Åsen is well-covered with a forest and there are a number of ups and downs. I found my way to the antenna that is also seen from Ulvik and from there, via a simple path, down to Vattatveit. From there, I first followed the forest road, but when it turned left -- in eastwards directions -- I left it (to the right) and crossed Trånemyrhaugen (basically without any path). I crossed another forest road and continued (without path), this time up Vetlefurehaugen. On the other >>>

Lyderhorn

Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
12,9km

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) >>>

Store Kongshaugen & Harafjellet -- another bicycle round

Distanse:
24,5km

Let's get some fresh air in the nice weather -- even if there isn't much time! :-) On my bicycle and off towards the west! :-) In Loddefjord, I turned left (and southwards) and passed by Håkonsvern. Right afterwards and shortly before Mathopen, I turned right and started my short but (very) steep ascent to Store Kongshaugen -- what a name for a comparably small hill! :-) Even though not very high, one still can enjoy great views in all directions from its top. I returned down on the same steep and old road, before then continuing via Mathopen and Hilleren towards Alvøpollen. I followed the road around Småvatnet to the sports arena of Alvøen. There I found the connection to the path that stretches along Storavatnet. From this path, I made a short detour up Harafjellet (also a rather >>>

Feråsen, Sørås, and Skeisåsen -- an evening cycling round

Dato:
02.09.2015
Turtype:
Blandet sykling
Turlengde:
2:30t
Distanse:
28,3km

After work, I needed some fresh air. After only few minutes of decision making, I got on my bicycle and started a quick round south of Fyllingsdalen. My first goal was Feråsen -- an easy-to-overlook small hill between Søreide, Steinsvik and Sandsli. I approached Feråsen from the east and ended up in a small street called Feråslia. I left my bicycle there and continued without. I found a simple trail that looked as if it would surround Feråsen. After having followed it somewhat half around Feråsen, I decided to simply ascend to the top -- with or without a path. While steep on this side, this worked easily and quickly, but I ended up on the neighboring small hill, right next to Feråsen. I changed over -- just to find out that the highest point is mostly part of a (private) garden. >>>
