GRIMSTAD around the Hills

Una de mis playas favoritas. De cesped. Con una miniplayita de arena y escaleras para entrar en el mar. One of my favorite beaches. From grass. With a mini sand beach and stairs to enter the sea.

La entrada hacia el camino de Binabben está indicada por un pequeño cartel. Da la sensación de estar entrando en una casa privada. The entrance to the Binabben road is indicated by a small sign. It feels like entering a private house.

Entrada al camino de Floyheia, o camino de Hamsuns Rulespor. Floyheia 63.5m sobre el nivel del mar. Bellas vistas del mar, el puerto, la ciudad y también el campo que rodea a la misma. El trail fue creado basado en el trabajo de Knut Hamsun, "on overgrown paths", y e encuentran numerosas referencias al libro a lo largo del camino. Algunas partes son empinadas, e incluso hay una cuerda para ayudar con el ascenso. Hay mucha roca y en días húmedos puede ser muy resbaladizo. Hamsun tenía 88 años cuando hizo este paseo, pero eso no significa que cualquier persona mayor pueda hacerlo. Si es una persona mayor noruega.. sí. Sino.. este tramo de la ruta es complicado, con rocas, escarpado y no siempre sencillo. Entrance to Floyheia Path, or Hamsuns Rulespor Path. Floyheia 63.5m above sea level. Beautiful views of the sea, the port, the city and also the surrounding countryside. The trail was created based on the work of Knut Hamsun, "on overgrown paths", and e find numerous references to the book along the way. Some parts are steep, and there is even a rope to help with the ascent. There is a lot of rock and on wet days it can be very slippery. Hamsun was 88 years old when he made this walk, but that doesn't mean any older person can do it. If it is a Norwegian older person... yes. But... this stretch of the route is complicated, with rocks, steep and not always simple.

Vista panorámica desde Mollerheia. El tope de la colina de Moller. MollerHeia. Colina del molino. 41.9m sobre el nivel del mar El nombre es antiguo y data de la era en la que los molinos eran más comundes. A principio de 1800 un molino de postes se situaba en este area, aunque cuando el autor Knut Hamsun recorrió el lugar en 1945, el molino había desaparecido. Hamsun se mudó a Eide, en las afueras de Grimstad en 1918. Él había comprado la granja Norholm donde vivió hasta su muerte en 1952. Escribió muchos de sus libros desde su llegada a Grimstad, y aquí vivía cuando recibió en Premio Nobel de literatura en 1920. Su controvertido su apoyo al régimen de Hitler provocó su detección el 14 de Junio de 1945. En su libro "on Overgrown paths" describe sus paseos por el area. Todos esos paseos hicieron que necesitara un par de zapatos. Quería enviar una carta a su granja en Norholm, pero nadie le que quiso ayudar con el envío. Así que, a sus 86 años Hamsun decidió ir andando él mismo hasta correos, situado en el centro de la ciudad. Sin embargo, como no le estaba permitido salir del hospital, para evitar que nadie le viera, cruzó la colina de Floyheia hasta Mollenheia. Hamsun continúo siendo impopular durante muchos años, pero actualmente está considerado uno de los mejores escritores noruegos. Solo Henrik Ibsen is mejor conocido en el extranjero. Panoramic view from Mollerheia. The top of Moller hill. MollerHeia. Hill of the mill. 41.9m above sea level The name is ancient and dates back to the era when mills were most common. In the early 1800s a pole mill was located in this area, although when author Knut Hamsun toured the site in 1945, the mill had disappeared. Hamsun moved to Eide, on the outskirts of Grimstad in 1918. He had bought the Norholm farm where he lived until his death in 1952. He wrote many of his books since his arrival in Grimstad, and lived here when he received the Nobel Prize for literature in 1920. His controversial support for Hitler's regime led to his detection on June 14, 1945. In his book "on Overgrown paths" he describes his walks through the area. All those walks made him need a pair of shoes. He wanted to send a letter to his farm in Norholm, but no one wanted to help him with the sending. So, at 86, Hamsun decided to walk himself to the post office in the city centre. However, as he was not allowed to leave the hospital, to prevent anyone from seeing him, he crossed the Floyheia hill to Mollenheia. Hamsun remained unpopular for many years, but is now considered one of Norway's best writers. Only Henrik Ibsen is better known abroad. MollerHeia.
