Tunesfjellet and Skåldalsfjellet

Datum:
21.05.2020
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:30h
Entfernung:
12,2km

One could say that this hike is a logical continuation of our small research project Gullfjellet from the north, Sørfjorden . :-) We drove from Bergen to Arna and then through the tunnel under Ådnanipa (E16), before taking the very first exit ("Takvam") and turning back along the old road (Tunesvegen) into the direction of Tunes. At Tunestveit, only a few meters from the E16-exit, we parked along the road. We then crossed under E16 (right where it comes out of the tunnel under Ådnanipa, crossing over Tveitaelva there) and continued on an old forest road into the direction of Åsen. All the terrain is very steep there and most parts will not provide any opportunity to continue all the way up. Our map study, however, had suggested that ascending to Åsen on the very eastern side >>>

Gravdalsfjellet from Betanien

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:00h
Entfernung:
3,7km

To get some fresh air, we decided to make a short hike up Gravdalsfjellet. We started at Betanien near Vestlund in Fyllingsdalen, Bergen, and head first northwards before then turning left (westwards) into the direction of Gravdalsfjellet. Right after passing by Brattheim, we took the stairs up into the direction of Viggohytten. As soon as we came out on top, however, we made a short detour to visit Kjerringen på Nipen, from where one can enjoy excellent views over Fyllingsdalen. We then headed back to the trail and up to Viggohytten before we continued further upwards to visit near Gravdalsfjellet. From there, we took another trail down (in the west of Gravdalsfjellet. After this short detour, we connected back with the trail that we had taken up near Brattheim. From there, it was >>>

Herlandsfjellet from Herland

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
3:45h
Entfernung:
11,0km

For a longer time already, we had the idea to try Herlandsfjellet from its northern side. When studying the available maps, it's not so obvious, how this should be done (as no trails are to be seen from the north). After some investigation, we were left with two choices that we deemed possible: going up from Ytre Songstad (along a narrow ridge that is very steep on either side) or going up from Herland, where the bridge to Osterøy is anchored (a less pronounced while also steep ridge). Eventually, looking at satellite images suggested that the eastern variant (from Ytre Songstad) would be through a dense looking forest, while the western variant (from Herland) appeared to have less dense standing trees. Since we were unsure how difficult it would be to ascend through a relatively dense >>>

Hamrefjellet

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
7,6km

Between two visits of shops, we wished to get some fresh air. Since we were close already, we decided to go a quick round around Hamrefjellet. Since we wished to start with Tornetfjellet, we drove into the direction of Smørås (just to find out that parking is non-trivial there -- clearly, those who live there do not like hikers to park up there). We thus parked quite a bit longer down along Smøråsvegen and walked back up from there. We then ascended Torneberget from Smøråsvegen (only a few meters up), before continuing along a nice trail that stretches over the heights into southern direction (towards Hamrefjellet). Passing by Myrasmettet, we ascended Vardane (also only a few meters up). We next thought to take a look at Vallastølen. Instead of walking "down" to Militærvegen, >>>

Høgstefjellet and Veten i Åsane

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
9,2km

With a nice day ahead of us (but limited time), we decided to try a hike that we had thought about for a longer time already: combining Høgstefjellet and Veten i Åsane -- a plan not without challenges (Norgeskart does not show any trail that would connect the saddle between Høgstefjellet and Tellevikafjellet and Postvegen in the valley)! In order to start with Høgstefjellet, we parked along Dalavegen on the western side of Langavatnet. The idea was to ascend towards the ridge that leads up to Varden (in the south of Høgstefjellet). Within a few minutes, we had come to a nice ridge (above Linosa), ascending steeply from its eastern side. We knew that a bit further westwards a trail was marked on the map, but we thought that we could equally well ascend along the ridge as long as this >>>

Short round over Gullsteinen

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
3,9km

With a little bit of time left, we decided to make a short detour across Gullsteinen. We parked along Nils Langhelles vei and walked up one of its steep side roads first. Near house #22, we had come to the end of this side road. Fortunately, it was possible to ascend up towards the next side road. From there, where this other side road makes a sharp turn to the south, it was then only a few meters, before a trail leaves to the left. Stepping up through the forest there, we first ascended a micro-hill south of Strutsefarmen. From there, we turned back to the trail, which leads up to the ridge between Gullsteinen and Løvstakken. Instead of following the trail, however, we decided to step up "through the wild" (and in the not all-too-deep snow). Lovely, to get out into some >>>

Lyderhorn

Tourlänge:

Entfernung:
2,7km

We needed some fresh air and since time was limited, we chose a nearby goal: Lyderhorn! We parked near Kjøkkelvik school and followed the main trail upwards from there (along a minor ridge which lead into southeastern direction, towards Små-Lyderhorn. From this intermediate point, it's then straight upwards (in northern direction up the steep side of Lyderhorn). Due to low temperatures (and limited time), we continued more or less directly across the top of Lyderhorn, aiming at the other, minor path down to where we started. As already once (at least) before, we missed, however, the point, where this minor path deviates from the main trail (towards north from Lyderhorn) -- the matter of fact that "everything" was covered by snow did not help to see, where this trail left. Something >>>

Løvstakken from Langeskogen

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
5,5km

With only about two or three hours of daylight left, we headed for a quick hike up and down Løvstakken. This time, we decided to try a route from the very southern end of Løvstien (at Øvre Kråkenes). We parked right next to the end of Løvstien, near the new roundabout at Øvre Kråkenes, and started our hike along Løvstien in northeastern direction. Before passing by Lerkhaugen, where also quite a bit of water comes down, we left Løvstien and started our ascent towards Løvstakken, following a nice and proper trail that leaves exactly where Løstien crosses over the stream from the left. This trail leads almost perfectly in northern direction up the mountain, following (on its eastern side) the course of a stream that comes down from Langatjørna. At about 275mosl, one passes by >>>

Litlagullfjellet

Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
12,1km

After a longer, relatively wet period, we anticipated a nice Sunday and thus planned "a proper hike"! :-) For a longer time, already, we had thought about visiting Litlagullfjellet, and this day seemed to give a nice opportunity to do it. Litlagullfjellet is part of the Gullfjellet mountains, located northwest of Gullfjelltoppen. It's not so much visited, since Gullfjelltoppen is higher and thus "overshadowing" Litlagullfjellet. Further, you have to plan your hike a little, since "coming by" Litlagullfjellet "accidentally" is rather unlikely (no major trails lead to it, really). Once up there, however, one can enjoy great views, mostly towards the west, making it worthwhile to visit nonetheless! :-) We took the car from Bergen, following road 587 >>>

Micro"tops" in Fyllingsdalen

Entfernung:
5,5km

Despite the wet weather, we still wished to get some fresh air. Instead of anything "more major", we simply started with visiting the highest point of Varden! :-) Inspired by having reached an insignificant "top", we decided to continue along a similar idea. Looking over across Sælen, we identified an unnamed "top" near Myrholtet and soon later we had arrived there (being very surprised about our trip goals!). Having had not enough of these understatement of "hiking", we headed further northwards and "up" to some minor heights in the west of Spelhaugen. There, we eventually came close to Langaheia, but decided to cut it short, after all. From there, it was then basically back home (with a short visit to the shop in-between). Clearly, >>>
