Crossing Høgafjellet from south to north

Datum:
27.11.2016
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
5,6km

Since we were two families with one car each, this day, we decided to traverse Høgafjellet (from the south to the north), instead of going a round. We took road 555 from Bergen to the west (across the large Sotra-bridge) and then continued further southwards, passing through Fjell. At about N60.312, E5.082, we left one car at the parking place, from which one can access the ruins of previous fortifications (fjellfestningen). Driving further southwards, we connected then to road 204, which leads to Haganes. Instead of driving all the way to Haganes, however, we stopped at about N60.286, E5.103 and started our hike from there. We first crossed over Storhaugmyra (mostly in eastern direction), getting into a small valley, which leads upwards to Kattatjørna. There, we basically changed direction >>>

Ulriken from Montana

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:15h
Entfernung:
3,4km

We drove up to Montana and started to hike along Johan Blytts vei, crossing over a little stream and heading further upwards in southeastern direction until we met another forrest road that comes up from the south. We followed then this forrest road for a few steps (mostly in northeastern direction) until the next turn of this road (back into southern direction). At this turn, a whole section of new stone stairs have been built recently, leading upwards in northern direction and towards Ulriken. It was these new stone stairs, which we were eager to see for the first time, of course! :-) We stepped up and reached the top of Ulriken not long after (a little over half an hour, alltogether, from the parking place). Instead of taking the same route down, again, we instead followed the higher >>>

Løvstakken (steep way up)

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:10h
Entfernung:
4,0km

We parked at the upper end of Kirsten Flagstads vei and walked from there (in light rain that soon would change into web snow). We walked up Rosenlundveien until we reached a major turn near house #43. Right after the turn, a small path leaves to the left and upwards. First, one steps a few meters up through the forrest, before then continuing underneath a power or telephone line that leads straight up, almost directly towards the summit of Løvstakken. Somehwere near the tree line, the path then turns a bit left (then in northern direction), where it continues steeply upwards over some rumble. Some meters higher up, one gets (if the weather is nice!) a great view over Fyllingsdalen. From there, it is then less steeply up towards the not far high-point of Løvstakken. From Løstakken, >>>

Erstadfjellet and Stemmeseggi

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
7,2km

We drove from Bergen towards the East and left the E16 to cross Sørfjorden towards Osterøy on the large bridge. We drove then to Haus and further to Votlo, where we continued a few turns upwards (towards Askeland). We parked near the spot, where the street (towards Askeland) crosses the little stream, which comes down Askelandsdalen. From there, we started hiking; first into northwestern direction (further towards Askeland, somehow upwards, also). Only a few steps up this road, we found the path, which departed to the right, now in eastern direction (leading further upwards). This path clearly was a well-made path before, probably serving a little hut not far up the mountain-side. When we reached this hut (more the ruins of it), we turned left and ascended (now more steeply) over some >>>

Gravdalsfjellet via Eikelifjellet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:45h
Entfernung:
5,0km

We started from the parking spot at the very end of Spelhaugen in Fyllingsdalen and ascended towards Eikelifjellet at once (we did not start along the major gravel road, which leads up to Tennebekktjørnet, but in parallel to this road, right a little bit to its north). Once over the top of Eikelifjellet, we continued in northern direction and towards Nipetjørna. We crossed over near the southeastern end of Nipetjørna and then continued towards the renewed Viggohytten. From there, it is only a few meters further up to the top of Gravdalsfjellet (not so clear, after all, where the actual top of Gravdalsfjellet is, really). We then decided to take another path down. Even though the terrain is steep, it is well possible to follow a minor path down from Gravdalsfjellet across its western >>>

Finnbunuten

Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
10,2km

We left E16 northeast of Voss and took road 13 to the north in the direction of Myrkdalen, Vikafjellet. We passed Myrkdalen and the ski center north of it, driving into Holedalen. At the very end of that valley, the road winds steeply upwards at Halsabakkane with the help of four u-turns. Only shortly after, we parked (near Samecampen at Vikafjellet) and crossed the Sendo stream using the rest of a small bridge that leads over to the other, southwestern side. A few minutes later, we reached a place called Finnbuene, where previously people stayed in summer. From there, we continued in southeastern direction towards the edge above Holedalen. While ascending, we slowing changed to a more southern course, heading into the direction of Kaldavatnet. Hiking this part of this trip is straight >>>

Tveitakvitingen from Tveita

Tourlänge:
7:00h
Entfernung:
16,4km

We took E16 from Bergen to Trengereid, then following road number 7 to Samnanger, before changing over to road number 48 right after Hagaåstunnelen. We passed through Eikelandsosen and continued to Holdhus, where we changed to a small road, which would lead us into the Tveita valley. Once there, we continued almost all the way in and parked near Bratthus, close to Indre Tveita. From there, we walked the rest of the road into the end of this nice valley, passing the last farm at Brekka soon after. The way continues into Tveitaskaret, where it becomes steep very soon (but easy to hike---mostly, because a gravel road has been constructed---probably to help maintaining a small power station that was opened in Tveitaskaret in 2009). At the end of the gravel road, one can further ascend through >>>

Knappskogfjellet

Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
6,4km

We drove to Sotra and turned right (northwards) after Kolltveittunnelen. We continued on road 561 northwards until we came to Knappskog. There, we turned left and followed a narrow road to Fjæreide. We parked right next to the cross, where one enters Dalane (in southern direction). We first wished to get to a path at the southern end of Dalane, but when we got close, a man (the owner of house #194?) informed us that we were not supposed to continue, but return and aim at another path that connects to Knappskogfjellet on the eastern side of Dalane. About half the path back to the main road, we detected this path and used it to get up above Dalane and towards Knappskogfjellet. Proceeding towards Knappskogfjellet was then straight-forward (partially steep, but easy to climb up). On Knappskogfjellet >>>

We parked at the northwestern end of Spelhaugen and walked the forrest road up to Tennebekktjørna. We then rounded the little lake (in clockwise direction). When back to Langedalen, after one round, we decided to walk the forrest road, which leads up to Eikelifjellet up and down, before returning to our car.

We drove to Fana, south of Bergen, and took the road, which leads towards Krokeidet, along the southern shore of Fanafjorden. Near Salbu, we found a place, where we could leave the car, and started our hike from there. We passed the houses with numbers 264 and 260 (right there, it was not 100% obvious, how we could optimally connect to the forrest road, which we had planned to find. But continuing around the houses led us to the spot, where the forrest road starts (in southwestern direction). From there, it was "straight-forward", then---at least in the beginning. We followed the forrest road, which wind back and forth, while leading up the northern side of Fanafjellet. While the first few meters of this little forrest road are not really inviting, the picture changes quickly, >>>
