Middagshovden with snowshoes

Datum:
01.01.2023
Tourcharakter:
Schneeschuhtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,9km

Lovely snowshoe tour on the first day of the year! After first reusing the track from the day before , we then decided to add an extension to Middagshovden. The ascent was a bit demanding (and in the upper part some 50 height meters, or so, were also quite steep), but all-in-all it was very nice and enjoyable. From Middagshovden, we then followed the slightly more traditional route down (in parallel to Ljosegrovi) until we reunited with our tracks from earlier. Really very nice to make such a winter hike with snowshoes! :-) Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .

Klyvsnolten and Lauvhovden

Datum:
19.10.2021
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
7,8km

After a two days meeting at Voss, we wished to get some fresh air before darkness would set in. The weather forecast was "challenging" (loads of rain predicted), but shifted at least a little from day to day. We had not given up, but aimed at something non-extreme to account for the circumstances (limited daylight left, non-shiny weather, etc.). My dear hiking friend Harald wished to ascend Lauvhovden (and convinced me then, also). We took the car from Voss along Raundalsvegen to Klyve, where we parked near Svinåni next to a gravel road. To start our hike, we first followed Raundalsvegen a little further, passing between Øvre Klyve and Nedre Klyve, to connect to a forest road that we had seen right next to Rastalii (leading upwards into the direction of Skori and Klyvsnolten).

Krampane and Hamlagrøhornet

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
9,6km

The day after our hike to Kjerringafjellet , we again started from Hamlagrøvegen -- this time, however, into the other, northeastern direction. Our first goal was Krampane, north of the cabin named after Alexander Grieg at Holeberg. We first walked along the western slope of Røvhaugane, before then crossing over to Svartagrovi in northwestern direction. Just a few height meters below 700mosl, we crossed the stream and continued (for a not very long stretch) along the marked trail in northern direction. Roughly where we crossed 700mosl, we diverted from this trail to the left and continued (in northwestern direction) towards the southern ridge of Krampane. Just a bit above 800mosl, then, we had connected to that ridge and continued along it upwards (all the way to Krampane). Up there, we then enjoyed some really >>>

Hovdane from Brattholo

Datum:
08.08.2020
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
6,4km

With a somewhat unclear weather forecast, we aimed at something gentle, not too far up. Driving along E16 (into the direction of Voss), we left the main road a little southwest of Vinje, contiuning for bit into the direction of Hommedalen. Driving up Holbygdvegen to about 250mosl, we found a suitable place near Brattholo to park right next to the road. From there, we started walking along a minor road that winds up towards the eastern flank of Hagahovden. A little over 300mosl then, we left the road (basically where it ends) and continued along a trail that continues further upwards. At about 335mosl, we briefly explored a flag post with some view, before soon returning to the trail and following further upwards. At about 500mosl we then arrived at a nice shelter at Hovdane, enjoying >>>

Tverrfjellet from Bidne

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
13,6km

The weather forecast was moderately OK (quite a bit overcast with realistic chances for some rain), so we aimed for a moderate hike, bringing us not too high up (and into the clouds). Since we had not been there before and expected at least some nice views from up there, our choice was to hike up to Tverrfjellet from Oppheim. We thus drove to Oppheim first and then left the main road (E16) near Framnes to drive up a simple road into the direction of Bidne. A few meters after reaching Bidne (that's about one kilometer from E16), we turned right (eastwards) and drove a few meters more towards Bidneshovden. There, we parked and started our hike (in northern direction, on a forest road). We followed the forest road northwards, staying on the western side of Sundsvålselvi, steadily ascending >>>

Mor Si Grav (and Bergshaugen)

Datum:
05.08.2020
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,9km

Again and again we had passed by (without stopping) before, so this time, on a rainy day, we decided to stop and take look at "Mor Si Grav" in Oppheim. We parked near the church and walked the few meters up to the old graveyard, where only "Mor Si Grav" (the mother's grave) remains. It's the place where the mother of Per Sivle is buried and an info plate not far from the grave explains some of the (quite moving!) history around it. After taking our time there, we then appended a little round around Bergshaugen, walking first up the hill and then over (at about 550mosl) to Uresåsen. From there, we then followed a gravel road (behind Bergshaugen) to Kvernhusholene. From there, we started our descent, first on the right (northern) side of Gryteelvi. At about 475mosl, >>>

Gråsida from Gjelle to Hornaberg

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
6:45h
Entfernung:
19,6km

Expecting nice September weather, we planned for a slightly longer hike, crossing Gråsida near Voss from one side to the other. In order to arrange for this, we agreed to coordinate this hike with friends, who would do the same hike, but in the other direction. The idea was to then exchange car keys at the meeting point so that each party could pick up a car at the end of the hike and drive back to Bergen. Our direction meant to start at Gjelle (south of Vossavangen) and to cross Gråsida towards Hornaberget in Bergsdalen. According to the plan, our friends started at Hornaberget and aimed for Gjelle, where we had parked our car (we had first taken road #5394 from Vossavangen towards Gjernes, before then driving up Giljavegen until we parked at about 285mosl, where a gravel road starts >>>

Skorseteggi and Kolingseggi

Datum:
15.06.2019
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
10,7km

We used the advantage of having two cars this time and parked one of them near Liaset, north of Lemme and east of Lønavatnet (all near Voss). Note that you have to pay a small fee for driving the last stretch up to Liaset (NOK 20, I think), so having some coins ready may help. We then drove back to the northern side of this mountain ridge and parked near Øyjordi (near Oppheimsvatnet), where a nicely marked trail starts (back to Lemme). Following this easy-to-find trail, we ascended swiftly to Øyjordsstølen, first, and from there then further into the direction of Skorseteggi, passing by Øyjordtjørni (and Flatafjellet behind it) on our way up. Enjoying a perfect hiking day with lots of sunshine and pleasant temperatures, we spent some bonus time on the top of Skorseteggi -- simply >>>

Jordalsnuten from Jordalen

Datum:
25.08.2018
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:30h
Entfernung:
5,8km

We took road E16 into direction of Gudvangen first and turned to the left (towards Jordalen) after descending into Nærøydalen below Stalheim. We then drove through the new tunnel (now on the eastern side of the valley) up to Jordalen. After leaving the tunnel, we crossed one bridge immediately, before parking the car just ahead of the next bridge. From there we hiked, first over the bridge to the other side of Jordalselvi (to its eastern side), then southwards along the steep eastern side of the valley (into the direction of Jordalsnuten), following a proper path (note that the trail head is not really easy to see; we needed a bit of searching until we found it). It's interesting, also, that the path leads first (more or less) horizontally (with quite a bit of up and down, though) out >>>

Finnbunuten

Datum:
15.10.2016
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
5:00h
Entfernung:
10,2km

We left E16 northeast of Voss and took road 13 to the north in the direction of Myrkdalen, Vikafjellet. We passed Myrkdalen and the ski center north of it, driving into Holedalen. At the very end of that valley, the road winds steeply upwards at Halsabakkane with the help of four u-turns. Only shortly after, we parked (near Samecampen at Vikafjellet) and crossed the Sendo stream using the rest of a small bridge that leads over to the other, southwestern side. A few minutes later, we reached a place called Finnbuene, where previously people stayed in summer. From there, we continued in southeastern direction towards the edge above Holedalen. While ascending, we slowing changed to a more southern course, heading into the direction of Kaldavatnet. Hiking this part of this trip is straight >>>
