Via Storaskjenet to Sangoltshornet
- Date:
- 17.03.2019
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 4:15h
- Distance:
- 12.7km
I took the car to Sotra and there to Sund kommune (on road 555 first). Near Hammarsland, I turned left (towards Klokkarvik), following road 198 for a bit. Near the northern-most point of Dommedalsvatnet, I parked and started my hike from there. I first headed towards Ormadalen and up through it (mostly without any trail). A little higher up there, I then connected to the main path towards Storaskjenet. Shortly later, I found myself on Storaskjenet: a substantial cliff (towards the west). After enjoying the views from there (and taking some photos), I continued in southern direction along the ridge. The path, which the map shows, is not easy to find and I ended up improvising most of the "way" along this ridge (no problem). Near Tveitahøgda, I reconnected to the path, which >>>
Pre-flight Knappen
- Date:

- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 0:45h
- Distance:
- 4.5km
Before one of us had to leave the country, the prospect of sitting some hours on planes was enough to bring us out for a short hike (even though the weather was not the best). Since time was short, the decision was easy: one quick walk over Knappen! :-) Refreshing! See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway . Petter Bjørstad has a useful page about Knappen .
Brotavarden from Kallestad
- Date:
- 10.03.2019
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:45h
- Distance:
- 7.7km
I took the car to Sotra and there to Kallestad, leaving the road 555 at Trengereid. Right next to Sjoartjørna, I found the sharp turn to the left (and up to Kallestad), even though there wasn't really a street sign to see. I then parked next to Kallestad Grendahus and started my hike from there (first still on the road in western direction and between some houses). Soon, I left Kallestad behind and began my hike through wild Sotra. :-) When crossing over a meadow (south of Stølstjørna, still very near to Kallestad), I failed to see, where the trail continued (a bit further north of where I went). So, instead of hiking along the trail, I ended up on Skjenhaugen, enjoying the view from up there! I then continued (parallel to the trail) further in western direction (towards Kjereidet). >>>
