Hiking in Bymarka

Bymarka is a popular recreation area just on the doorstep to Trondheim. You can go hiking, biking, fishing, swimming, crosscountry skiing (wintertime), relaxing and just enjoying life.

This first shot is a 5 pic panorama. About 180 degrees. You can see the small mountain Gråkallen, lake Vintervatnet in the middle, and to the right lake Skjeldbreia.

Psst: If you see some kind of road in this last picture, I can tell that this is just a small track. In Norway we are not allowed to drive offroad. My car is parked several hundred meters away from the small lake you see. Lake Vintervatnet. Up to the right (out of the pic) is the mountain of Gråkallen.  I am looking east, standing a 20 minutes walk and 5 minutes drive away from the center of Trondheim. Isn't it wonderful ;-)

  11. Holy Cow! Too much to comment on! I can't believe how wonderful all of these are. Some highlights for me... the SKIES. Incredible cloud patterns and color in the skies. The leaves! Especially the close-up. And the panorama. Excellent job on that. Terrific post as always.

  19. it's good to see people following the law - even if off-track driving were illegal in greece, people wouldnt follow the law, which is why most of our coutnryside is not as well maintained as yours

  20. Hallo Ivar, it IS wonderful! I like to hike myself and the landscape around Trondheim looks soooo inviting!
    The flora is very beautiful. And you have such an amazing view over the countryside!
    Needless to say that your SWF picture is great, too. In Austria, we also have some "windparks" of that kind.
    Have a nice weekend, Maria

  23. Høsten er kommet - og du har dokumentert den bra som vanlig!)

    Fikk forøvrig et tilbud på en Sigma 70/2.8 til ca 3600. Høres det bra ut?
    Har du noen negative erfaringer? Jeg ville tro at et-par tre av disse er tatt med din.

  24. Beautiful Nature. Great shots. Nice plant colors. Congratulations for your hiking report.
    Good environment protection no driving off-road.
    Would you tell me more about that?
    Thanks.

  25. Hei igjen: Det er en fast 70mm. Har en 17 - 70 Sigma. Har også et tilbud noen hundre lappere billigere på en canon EF/S 60mm/28 Macro (fast). Testene synes å være unige. Teller på knappene og pengene :-)
