Vzdálenost:
6.5km

Short evening hike between the rain showers with the main objective of visiting Kampen , a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . On my way there I also passed by Blåurskampen which could potentially also be added to the list, but with only deer tracks to follow and very limited views from the summit I decided to not add it as its own PB-element (update: it was later added by Helwig ). Kampen could be easily ascended from the east, and I probably should have descended that way as well, but instead decided on a shortcut northeast along the ridge. A bit steep towards the end but no real challenges. Not sure if I saved much time compared to the easier route back east though.

Hillwalk
Délka túry:

Vzdálenost:
10.4km

A return to Fedje with the main goal of visiting Aurihophytta , which I had not had time for during my first trip to the island back in 2021 . Decided not to repeat the very long cycling trip this time around though and instead arrived by car, which we left at Sævrøy before getting on the ferry. Minor swells but overall a smooth journey. At Fedje, we followed the roads southwest to the marked trailhead for Aurihophytta. Here we continued on a very nice gravel-covered trail. But just as we started discussing whether it perhaps would be this easy all the way to the cabin, the marked route left the gravel and instead led us along a relatively wet trail. We passed via Såta and continued southeast to Aurihophytta. Here we had a short lunch break before heading south to the paved road close to Hellisøy fyr . All that remained was then walking along the road back to >>>

Vzdálenost:
10.1km

Ever since Petter and I ran out of time during our visit of Halsnøy and Husnes last June, I had had plans to return to also visit Vikefjell , but this time via the express boat from Bergen. The boat took around two hours and after disembarking I followed the roads east towards the southern trailhead for Vikefjell. No sidewalks but thankfully not a lot of traffic. The marked trailhead was easily located and I proceeded to follow an initially rather steep trail up to Søre Vikefjell where I took a short break to enjoy the excellent views. From there it was only a short distance to the highest point at Vikefjell, referred to as Nordre Vikefjell. Ok views here as well but more limited than Søre Vikefjell. I continued east along the marked trail until connecting with the gravel road in Teigadalen. Here I turned south and headed down to the main road before turning west and returning >>>

Bjørnahifjellet and Utsletteslottet

Datum:

Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Délka túry:
5:13h
Vzdálenost:
12.6km

A return to Stord for a visit of Bjørnahifjellet , a minor summit on the Opptur Hordaland list . I started by taking the express bus from Bergen to Leirvik where I switched to a local bus to Litlabø. After a brief exploration of some of the buildings related to the mining museum I continued on a marked route via Storsynken before leaving the mines behind and following the signs for Bjødnahiet . Four crossings of the stream/river in Storedalen were required before getting to the marked trailhead, where only the first one was via a bridge. But thankfully the water was not very deep and there were convenient steeping stones that made it possible to cross without getting wet. More of a challenge was the snow covering the gravel road, as it was of the type that almost carried my weight but only for a second before giving way, thus resulting in a slower and tougher start >>>
