👍 From Åsane bus terminal we took the bus 5 bound to Loddefjord and stopped at Hellebakken. You will pass the Spar store and there's a hill the leads to a long road up to the fortress. There's a lot to see when you reached the top. You can hike to Eidsvågfjellet, it offer too a not so equipped playgro... People often mention view, area, Nice,

    From Åsane bus terminal we took the bus 5 bound to Loddefjord and stopped at Hellebakken. You will pass the Spar store and there's a hill the leads to a long road up to the fortress. There's a lot to see when you reached the top. You can hike to Eidsvågfjellet, it offer too a not so equipped playground and you can see the sunset facing the ocean in the fort. There's a bench there too. So its really good to relax ,few people visiting this place. On our way we have seen a different type of bringebær its called Bjørnebær this cherry is more into crisp look and it must be black when you pick it its more sweet when its warm or heat. Have a save trip.

    This is a great short city hike. It is an old road to a WWII fort that had large guns protecting the city. During the battle six men died and there is a small memorial for them next to the gun sites. There is also an info plaque about the site. The best things are the views of the harbor entrances and also Bergen city center. A great look at the area.
