Hausdalshorga and Austefjellet

Date:
24.02.2013
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:00h
Distance:
9.8km

Starting from Stallen (after having driven there via Bontveit from Bergen), we first went up towards Dyrdalsvatnet. After having reached the height of it (~435moh), we crossed the little stream which comes down from Dyrdalsvatnet and continued up towards Hausdalshorgi. It's a really nice hike over the ridge with great views towards West, but in Winter it was non-trivial (quite steep, very hard snow -- not ideal!). From Hausdalshorgi, we continued towards Austefjellet -- a really nice hike! From Austefjellet, we went first towards north-west, before turning back left and down (towards Dyrdalsvatnet). Passing by it, we get back to our starting point. Selected photos are available as Google photo album .
