Stoltzekleiven
On the way up StoltzekleivenToday I discovered why Norwegians are in such great shape. It's called the stairmaster of Mount Sandviksfjellet (Stoltzekleiven the area we hiked). Kristine and I went hiking this afternoon after her last Exam. We climbed up Stoltzekleiven and then hiked across the ridge and down Fløyen. Sandviksfjellet and Fløyen are two more of Bergen's seven peaks. I have now climbed 3/7 in about three days. Not bad. The hike took about 3.5 hours. Stoltzekleiven was an uphill battle. The entire hike up was rock stairs and took about 45minutes to an hour. It was unbelievable! Not to mention the amount of people on that hike. We must have been passed by 50 or more eager Norwegians some as young as eight! We passed a beautiful lake on our hike between the mountains. The hike down was much easier and most of it was actually on a paved road. I'm looking forward to more hiking, as I have vowed to hike all seven peaks in my time here. I'm off to drag my aching body to bed.
Me talast, Allison
