Kolbeinsvarden[1] (sometimes called Askøyfjellet) is a mountain in Askøy Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The 231-metre (758 ft) tall mountain lies near the southeastern coast of the island of Askøy, just north of the village of Kleppestø. The mountain is traditionally considered to be one of De syv fjell (lit. 'the seven mountains') that surround the city of Bergen.[4]
