Already this crossing of Bjørnafjorden was nice, with nice views towards south and east! Once on Tysnes, we drove first east (towards Lundegrend).

Our plan was to go a nice round over Hovlandsnuten, maybe the most spectacular mountain on Tysnes (not the hightest though).

Very nice morning hike (from Idlestigen up Siggjo and down again) -- really a nice mountain (standing quite alone and prominent)!

Very nice hike, starting from Lundastølen, first parallel to the road which leads up to Kattnakken, then to the left and up (to the saddle), before turning left (and west), again, and continuing to Stovegolvet. Down via a step descent to the west and through Tyseskaret, before connecting back to the parking at Lundastølen.
