Sauafjellet and Spjeldsfjellet

Dato:
25.03.2024
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
9,9km

We started at Fjæreide and first went up Sauafjellet. From there, we then reconnected with the trail to Kårtveit north of Sauafjellet (descending Sauafjellet northwards without a trail was just fine; only the last few meters were a bit so that one had to find a way of where to go). We then followed the trail into the direction of Kårtveit, passing by Vardavatnet along the way. At Kårtveit, we wished to continue on another trail (to Spjeldsfjellet, a bit further north). We did not see a more straight-forward way then to first step out and onto road 5242, then follow this road northwards for some 200-300 meters, before then turning right and onto the planned trail, again. To pass by Urafjellet in its north (as planned), we needed to find the right "turn left" where also the >>>

Ørnafjellet and Austre Høghaugen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
7,9km

We expected some nice sun and decided to enjoy the day with an exploration of a part of Sotra that we had not visited before. We drove the car to Sotra and there to Fjell. South of Fjell, along Søre Fjellavegen and right next to Gardstjørna, we parked next to the road and started our hike, walking down a simple road towards Fjellspollen. Still on this road, we conveniently crossed over the waters, that spring down from Bosvatnet to Litlepollen, using the road-bridge. Studying the map at home had suggested that starting our ascent up to Ørnafjellet would be possible right from the road in the north of Litlepollen. Once there, however, we saw that the hill-side appeared a bit steeper than originally expected. Still, we could make it up to the heights in the north of Litlepollen without >>>

Pyttane in windy weather

Dato:
03.02.2024
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
6,7km

With quite a bit of weather outside, we decided to "just" go up and down Pyttane on Sotra. We took the car to Ekrhovdvegen in the very east of Sotra and parked near Nordre Stølen, where the service road up to Pyttane starts. We then walked up to the radar stations, experiencing significant weather on the top (strong winds, some precipitation). While it was nice to get out into the fresh air, we still did not feel like staying up there "in the elements" for any prolonged time, thus walking back down more or less immediately, again. All in all, this walk up to Pyttane is always nice (and easy), lending itself well to getting some fresh air without an all-too-long trip. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .

Liatårnet from Liaskjeret

Turtype:

Turlengde:
4:30t
Distanse:
9,1km

We took the car from Bergen towards the west, crossing over Sotrabrua. In the west of Bildøya, we turned south (onto Døsjevegen), driving to Liaskjeret in the east of Liatårnet. From Liaskjærshallen, we then started our hike with our first goal being the trail that leads up to Liatårnet from Hølo. To get there, we had the choice between walking along Liaskjervegen for a good stretch and the alternative of following a simple trail above (in the west) of the houses. Choosing the latter, we first walked up Elvabakkvegen to get to the nearest trail head near house #11. A few hundred meters further west (and up a little), we then turned right (northwards), aiming for Skoradalen via a simple trail. West of Skogsbrekko, however, we did not really find a good way to continue further to >>>

Liatårnet and Haganesfjellet from Liaskjeret

Distanse:

Liatårnet and Haganesfjellet from Liaskjeret. We parked next to Liaskjershallen in the southeast of Liatårnet on Sotra and walked first back (northwards) along Liaskjervegen until we found the spot where one can ascend to Dansarhaugen (just a few steps above the last houses on the hillside up to Liatårnet). We then crossed Skoradalen, mostly in northern direction, before we changed course after crossing over Bukkhelleren into a more northwestern direction, ascending rather straight up towards Liatårnet. Once on Liatårnet, we started our traverse across the heights south of Liatårnet, mostly in southern direction. South of Høgafjellet, we then came to Kattatjørna. This time, we passed by this lake on its eastern side, also stepping over Kattafjellet. It then was just straight southwards, >>>

Distanse:

Høgafjellet and Haganesfjellet from Buabrekko. We parked near Tellnesvegen and walked down Buabrekko, crossing over the stream down from Kvernavatnet where it enters Pollen at its very northern end. On the other, eastern side, a trail leads up to the northern end of Ravnafjellet. Originally, we had planned to find a minor trail that should have forked off somewhere half way up in northeastern direction. Since we had not found this trail, we quickly found ourselves at the northern end of Ravnafjellet. There, we left the trail and continued through some relatively wet terrain northwards. Basically right west of Varden, we then found a good spot for ascending to the "next level", north of Vedatåna. There, we then also connected to a trail that circles Varden in its west. After >>>

Liatårnet from Li

Turlengde:

Distanse:
5,3km

We expected some sunshine (not any long day, though, of course) and thus headed for some snow near Bergen! :-) Remembering a very nice winter hike up to Liatårnet in Jan. 2019 , we aimed at Liatårnet, again, but this time via a slightly different route. Also this time, we drove to Li (on the eastside of Liatårnet) and parked near Liaskjærshallen right next to Liaskjervegen at Liaskjeret. From there, we first walked back a little (north along Liaskjervegen) until we turned left (onto Elvabakkvegen). After walking up this road for a few meters, the road splits into two in a T-junction; there, straight onwards, one finds a trail head from which one can get behind the houses in westwards direction (for ex., towards Trollhaugen in the southwest). Our plan was to ascend into the direction of Liatårnet from there, so we did not >>>

Exploring Knappen near Kallestad

Dato:
04.07.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:00t
Distanse:
6,7km

The plan was to use a nice, warm summer day and hike into the north of Kallestad. We parked next to Grendahuset in Kallestad and first walked the street back northwards until we came to Sjoartjørna. Where Kallestadvikvegen turns around this little lake (in its west), a trail heads off in northwestern direction. After only a few meters, already, one has the choice between going directly to Storhaugen, or ascending to Austre Storhaugen, first. We did the latter, heading up to Austre Storhaugen, first, enjoying some nice views, including one back down to Sjoartjørna. From Austre Storhaugen, one can then connect to Storhaugen via a steep descent, first, and then joining the trail that comes around Austre Storhaugen in its south. From Vestre Storhaugen, just a few meters in the west of Storhaugen, >>>

Steinafjellet and Skjerhaugen

Distanse:
3,0km

Being already very close, I decided to make a quick excursion to Steinafjellet and the coastal area there. After parking next to the school in Landro, my first "challenge" was to get behind the used areas (towards the open landscape with Steinafjellet). I found a way to pass by a farm there, but would have found it even better with a trail head to use. Once behind the farm area, proceeding to Steinafjellet was quick and easy. Once there, I decided to walk a little further (towards the coast) and started to do so in northwestern direction from Steinafjellet. This brought me within a few minutes to a little height, just in the south of Sørdalen. In order to get even closer to the sea, I then descended into Sørdalen, choosing a place which was a little steeper than what was just >>>

Stortårnet and Nilskyrkja

Dato:
21.03.2021
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
7,6km

Our idea was to explore the west of Dala, south of Fjell in Øygarden. After driving westwards from Bergen, we turned south once on Sotra. Passing by Fjell, we soon arrived in Dala, where we parked next to the main road. The first (small) hiking goal of the day was Stortårnet in th southwest of Dala. After crossing a playing ground right next to Dalseidet, we started a short ascent (first without any trail). Once above 70mosl, we connected to a simple trail which then lead us to Stortårnet. Before turning back, we first explored the area a little, including the mobile sender mast in the southeast of the top (northwest of Dalatjørna). We then continued northwestwards from Stortårnet, reaching Ærhaugane soon after while walking over the ridge parallel to Trengereidpollen some 75 meters >>>
