Møsnuken from Hegglandsdalen barneskole

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
12,0km

YR predicted a really nice winter day: a perfect invitation to get out! :-) Without too much comparison of all the possible nice hikes, I decided to make another attempt to ascend to Møsnuken from the southeast. I had read here on Peakbook about a trail that leads up to Tveitaberget from Hegglandsdalsvegen where it passes the primary school of Hegglandsdalen (Hegglandsdalen barneskole). And indeed there's a proper trail with a well-marked trail head next to house #528 along Hegglandsdalsvegen, which leads up along a curved ridge to Tveitaberget. According to the terrain, this trail is very steep, but just fine to step up there! :-) Once on Tveitaberget, the trail "flattens out" a little, leading then in northward direction. At about 355masl, the trail turns left to ascend steeply (for just a >>>

Hauggjelsvarden from Grimen

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:30h
Entfernung:
8,5km

This Saturday was predicted to be the better hiking day of the weekend with clouds and some wind on the menu. The idea for the day was to ascend to Vidden from Erdalen near Grimevatnet. We started near the camping site at Grimen, crossing over Hardangervegen to get onto Erdalsvegen. After walking along Erdalsvegen for only about 200m, we turned left (exit towards the houses 12, 14, and 20), crossed the railtrack, and started our ascent into Gaulgjelet (steeply up on the eastern side of the stream). At about 125masl, we had to navigate around/over some rocks to continue in parallel to the stream. In retrospect, we got the impression that this could have been avoided by starting on the other, western side of the stream, maybe near houses 244 and 246 on Hardangervegen, and then crossing over >>>

Round around Bjørndalsvatnet

Datum:
20.11.2022
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
7,7km

Heading for some fresh air, we decided to make a round around Bjørndalsvatnet. Starting from Varden, we first crossed over Bjørgeveien into the direction of Knappen, ascending Sandeidbrotet to reach the trail that would bring us over to Bjørgelien. Via Bjørgebrekken, we then connected to Bjørgedalen and we used the connection down to Kjerreidvika. On the other side, we ascended to Ørnahaugen, before continuing further northwards to Bjørndalsskogen. There, we crossed Bjørgeveien (again) and descended to Bjørndalsvatnet. Surrounding the lake in its north, we got to the eastern side, where we followed trails back to Varden, also passing by Gjeddevatnet after getting over between the two lakes east of Elvareidet.

Gullfjelltoppen via Glamregjelet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:30h
Entfernung:
11,8km

We expected a day with nice weather and decided to use it well. For a while, we had considered to ascend to Gullfjelltoppen via Glamregjelet, i.e., the valley in the northwest of Gullfjelltoppen. Assuming that the condition for exploring this route would be OK, we decided to try it. We started driving up Gullfjellsvegen to park at the parking place next to Osavatnet. From there, we first walked along the gravel road that leads up to the dam of Svartavatnet. Instead of following the "main road", which leads further up to Redningshytten, we took the convenient stairs up on the northern side of the dam, arriving close to the water level of Svartavatnet in the south of Svartavassrinden. While one of the two of us continued "horizontally", following the northwestern shore >>>

Gravdalsfjellet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,0km

We wished to get some fresh air and thus headed into Kanadaskogen (after first "bridging" the first few meters until we had passed by Hesjaholten). From Hesjakollen, we entered the forest (first a few meters steeply up) to cross over the small hills between Stora and Litla Krokatjørna. Passing by Spelhaugen, we continued up Mørkbotn to get to the southern end of the southern ridge of Eikelifjellet. Following this ridge, we ascended to Eikelifjellet, enjoying some nice views towards the west and southwest. From Eikelifjellet, we continued further northwards, into the direction of Nipetjørna. From there, we took two separate routes up to Gravdalsfjellet, one around the east of Nipetjørna and one around the west of it. After meeting again on Gravdalsfjellet, we started our >>>

Løvstakken via Manndomsprøven

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
3,3km

Despite of the wet weather, I saw a chance to try out something interesting: Manndomsprøven on Løvstakken (who would have thought?! :-)). In April, 2022, another user of Peakbook, Knut Sverre , described his/their ascent to Løvstakken via Manndomsprøven , a particular place on the southwestern side of Løvstakken. I got inspired already then, but hadn't had the chance to try this route before. To get there, I parked along Krohnegården, northeast of Svartatjørna, and followed first Krohnegården back southwards, passing by Svartatjørna. Once passed the rather steep western side of Nova, I crossed Krohnegården and started my ascent via Bustingen, first. A little northeast of Rosenlundveien, I connected to the trail that leads steeply up to Løvstakken from Rosenlundveien. After following this trail for a short stretch (up to about 300mosl), I deviated >>>

Stendafjellet from the north

Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
2,2km

Even though it all looked (and was!) a rainy day, we still wished to get some fresh air. Since we had something else to do nearby, we decided to just quickly include a short detour up and down Stendafjellet (from the north). Driving up Øvre Krohnåsen, we found a spot to park near the playing ground at the upper end of this road. From there, we started our short hike towards the "top" of Stendafjellet, choosing a route through the forest (without a trail). All this was straight-forward and without any difficulties (at about 200masl, there's a little cliff, which is easy to get around, though). On Stendafjellet, we visited the lookout point, looking down to Fanafjorden from there, before then returning (along a similar, but still a bit different route). All in all, this was >>>

Round around Dyrdalsvatnet from Øvstebø

Datum:
15.10.2022
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:30h
Entfernung:
10,1km

We expected a rather nice autumn day and decided to hike up to Hausdalshorgi, one of our favorite mountains near Bergen. A good way to approach Hausdalshorgi is from Øvstebø, a short way further northeast from Bontveit. The usual route leads first up to Dyrdalsvatnet (parallel to Dyrdalselva, on its northwestern side) and from there further up to Hausdalshorgi, conveniently using a little bridge over Dyrdalselva (when it's not swept away by some floods as a few years back). This time, we wished to explore an alternative approach to Hausdalshorgi, crossing Dyrdalselva already at Øvstebø, then ascending through the forest up to Bjørnaberget, and then further up along a small ridge that extends in northwestern direction from Bjørnaberget. Even though the stretch up to Bjørnaberget is >>>

Lyderhorn from Loddefjord

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,2km

With only limited time available, we decided to "just" make a short hike to Lyderhorn, exploring a new "corner" of this rather well-known mountain. We started biking to Loddefjord. We then continued up a side road of Lyderhornsveien, which services the power facility a few meters above Loddefjord, right below Skarpafjellet. From there, we first followed the trail that leads up to Grøvledalen, but decided to follow a slightly different route up, first. Soon later, we reconnected with the trail between Skarpafjellet and Lyderhorn. From there, it was then basically up and down Lyderhorn, mostly following trails. On the way back, we then descended towards Loddefjord through Grøvledalen. Nice to explore new routes, even on an often visited mountain like Lyderhorn! :-)
