I did the June challenge! Actually I've found doing some of the challenges rather a challenge, since my city (town rather) is rather small, and sooner rather than later you'll have to cross a mountain or swim across a fjord. But then this Monday I suddenly noticed that my regular work-home bus had gotten a new terminus. Which I had no idea were was, so the challenge kind of gave itself:

Welcome to Hesjaholtvegen (The hayrack grove road)! Somewhere in Norway...

( Join me on my trip through Norwegian suburban jungle... )

This is my June challenge, posted a day late - I needed to buy a new computer to upload the pictures first! So I did the challenge of starting from a railway terminus. I did a small change to it, since the railway goes straight into a 700 metres high mountain (and it's not a "hikers" community after all), so I followed the light rail tracks instead. And then I could go the whole distance, from terminus to terminus. Almost 12 kilometres on foot. The light rail is just two years old, and everybody here in Bergen is very proud of it. When it came everybody I mean everybody - had to take it to the terminus and back again. And a lot of my friends with little children still do, as a part of a Sunday outing.

Here is the map of the light rail route
And here is the map of my walk

And here we start at the terminus:
