Seven Mountains, Bergen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from De syv fjell)
The Seven Mountains (Norwegian: De syv fjell) surround the city centre of Bergen, Norway. The mountain group includes at least Ulriken (the highest) Fløyen, Løvstakken and Damsgårdsfjellet, plus three out of Lyderhorn, Sandviksfjellet, Blåmanen, Rundemanen, and Askøyfjellet. The definition used by Bergen Mountain Hiking Association, which organizes an annual 7-mountain hike, is Lyderhorn, Damsgårdsfjellet, Løvstakken, Ulriken, Fløyen, Rundemannen, and Sandviksfjellet. Which mountains belong to the group is unclear, due to its origin (based on the mythical status of the number seven), and the fact that several of the mountains are part of the same mountain massif.
