39 av 60 toppar i Funäsfjällen I många år har jag betat av fjäll som hör till Funäsfjällens ”60 toppar” (över 1000 meter). Jag besteg några toppar innan jag visste om 60 toppar, men de räknas så klart. Fast jag har varit på dessa nybörjartoppar många gånger sedan dess… I och med att antalet toppar…

I have done 36 of the ”60 toppar” project so far. #37 will be special – it’s the first one I will do on skis! The nights are still insanely cold. It was -27°C this morning so I was in no hurry at all to leave. The days are very long, so there’s no need…

Since I got my new mountainbike, I’ve been wanting to do a bike & hike trip. Rödsjövålen was a good candidate for that, there’s a double-track road from Backvallsvägen to Östvallen, where you continue on foot to get to the top of Rödsjövålen. 17 km by bike, 8 km by foot (return trip). No problems, I…

I went hiking for a change. The goal was to do two peaks today, Rutstöten (1098m) and Gråhöjden (1192m). They are in the same direction and so close together that it would be wasteful to only do one of the peaks at a time. And in fact, had I not already done Volldalshöjden, it would…

So I finally did the long hike to Skarsfjället and back! I drove to Slättansvallen in Ramundberget, unloaded my MTB and biked (well, mostly – there were some bits where I had to walk/carry the bike) all the way to Tvärån. That’s about 9 km (return) that I didn’t have to walk, and I was…

I counted my ”60 toppar” peaks the other day and found to my astonishment that I already have 31 of them! And as of today, 32. I drove to Vauldalen just across the border and hiked to Gruvsjöfjället. It was a very easy hike because you can follow a road/quad trail almost to the top, and the altitude…

I have a four day weekend without any specific plans. Everything depends on the weather and it doesn’t look so good… my main target currently is Skarsfjället, which I’ve decided to do as a day-hike. It’s long (about 24 km, if I use the bicycle to Klinken), but perfectly doable. But, Skarsfjället is often shrouded in…

Last night the weather forecast had promised sunshine all day and even on Sunday. This morning it said that it would get cloudy in the afternoon and rain in the evening. Yikes! I didn’t feel like having a long breakfast, I really wanted to get going so I could reach the peak before the clouds…

Yesterday morning I looked at the weather forecast and saw how the weekend was going to be absolutely brilliant. The first thing in my mind was, Helags! The second thing… I’m on call this week. For a moment I felt sorry for myself for missing a great opportunity, but then I decided that there’s no…

There’s a small mountain (Volldalshöjden, or Volldalshøgda) you pass when you drive across the Sweden/Norway border here. Somehow I’ve managed to miss it all these years (it really doesn’t look like much from the road) but now I finally got my sights set on it. On paper it looked like an easy evening promenade of…
