Storevarden and Kolbeinsvarden

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:15t
Distanse:
4,8km

We parked near Erdal church on the east of Askøy, a few kilometers north of Kleppestø. From there, we first followed a road, Svartedalsvegen. Right after two U-turns, a small road departs to the right, leading to a few houses (two?) that are "kind of hidden" in a small valley. We passed the houses (in the valley), searching for a good spot to ascend to Storevardsbrekka, i.e., another road much higher up that is servicing houses that are built high up the hillside. We found a way to get up there, but it was comparably wild and not recommended. Back on the street (now Storevardsbrekka), we followed it until the end from where a path leads on the remaining few meters up to Storevarden. From there, we followed a path northwards, passing by Langafjellet and connecting to the main >>>

We parked along Bergheimvegen (near Skogedalen) and walked a few meters along the road (towards East), before we found the path up towards Storevarden (on the left). Within a few minutes, we reached a ridge that easily leads towards Storevarden. From there, one has a nice view over Byfjorden and Bergen. We then continued towards Langafjellet (one should take care to not start too much to the East, where a nice ridge invites to be followed---instead, one should look out for a small path that leads downwards, before connecting to Langafjellet). On the other side of Langafjellet, we connected back to a place, which we have visited recently---right next to a very nice small lake. From there, we basically turned back (on the "main path", however, that is a little to the West of the >>>

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. >>>
