Brøknipa from Båtaleitet (back via Borgasætra)

Datum:
20.04.2025
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
8,8km

Probably it was about time to explore the new stone steps that had been laid down along the ascent path to Brøknipa (from Båtaleitet). We parked at the (now large) parking place at Båtaleitet (and paid our fee -- also that's new, as it seems). We then followed the main trail towards Brøknipa and the full parking lot had not fooled us: lots of others were on this trail, as well. While the project seems to be still ongoing, at least to some degree, significant parts of the ascent trail are now covered by impressive stone steps. Especially in the steepest section, up to Middagshaugen, this massively upgraded trail is now very impressive for sure! Enjoying the excellent views, already on our way up, we then made the "obligatory" short break on the top of Brøknipa, also taking >>>

Towards Olsnesnipa from Olsneset

Datum:
20.04.2025
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
3,2km

I was in the mood for a quick "before breakfast" stroll and thus headed to explore the heights north of Olsneset on Osterøy. After only a few meters it got confirmed that this would -- at least at large -- be an off-trail excursion. I still gained elevation relatively quickly, searching my way through the vegetation. Several times, I emerged at places with great views (including panoramic views across Sørfjorden -- nice!). Once up to about 240 masl, I got confronted with slightly more challenging terrain -- continuing "whereever" was no longer an option. After having made it down to the foot of an impressive cliff (in my west), I then followed this cliff upwards "right under it". This brought me to a place, where I could easily cross over to the heights, >>>

Hånipa from Reigstad

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
5,1km

After taking the ferry from Breistein to Valestrand on Osterøy, we drove a bit further southwards and parked near Reigstad. We then followed the main trail across the northern ridge of Reigstadfjellet southwards to get up to Hånipa. We then continued along the high ridge, high above Sørfjorden, a bit more southwards, before turning left and descending into Reigstaddalen, following the main trail. Due to some major forest works, which had impacted the forest road through Reigstaddalen significantly, we then decided to follow Geitryggen instead of staying in the valley for getting back. About half way down, however, we still connected back with the forest road through Reigstaddalen. Somehow, without fully sinking into all the mud, we still made it back down and back to the car! :-) All >>>

Brøknipa from Båtaleitet, back via Borgasærtra

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
8,9km

We had the afternoon of this Friday at our disposal and the weather was looking OK. :-) To combine some mountain impressions with such of the fjords, we headed for Brøknipa on Osterøy, starting from Båtaleitet parking at about 350mosl. After driving to Osterøy via the bridge and then continuing further (along Sørfjorden) towards Bruvik, we headed up to the saddle and parked at Båtaleitet parking. Looking up to Brøknipa from there, we recognized that there was still quite a bit of snow left on the northern flank. We agreed to giving it a try, while being ready to turn around whenever anyone of us would feel like it. We followed the main trail that passes by Varmavatnet at about 425mosl. Also the following 100 height meters (in southern direction) were still easy and without much >>>

Stongfjellet and Skolmen

Datum:
15.04.2023
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:30h
Entfernung:
10,0km

We first had considered Høgafjellet on Osterøy, but since we expected -- probably for good reasons -- quite a bit of snow on Høgafjellet, we eventually decided against Høgafjellet. Since we already thought about Osterøy, we chose Stongfjellet, instead. To get there, we drove to Osterøy (via the bridge to Osterøy), continuing through the tunnel on Osterøyvegen. At Gongerinden, we left Osterøyvegen, heading towards Gjerstad on Gjerstadvegen. Once through Gjerstad (and crossing over the stream), we continued via Solbjørg and Solbjørgsdalen. We then took Hovdavegen, passing by Låstadvatnet in its south and continuing further upwards in southeastern direction. Very close to the saddle, before reaching Hovdo at the end of the road, we parked right next to the trail-head. From Hovdavegen, >>>

Hæddena, Orrkleivhaugen, and Åsheimfjellet

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
4:00h
Entfernung:
8,2km

We thought that Osterøy would be nice for another hike and so we chose Hæddena right north of the bridge to Osterøy as our goal for the day. This time, however, we wished to get there via the nice-looking ridge, which is directly about the long tunnel of Osterøyvegen (basically the continuation of the bridge). The map had suggested that a simple trail should be leading up there, as well. We parked right after driving through "the other tunnel" (of Hausvegen, "only" some 150m long, or so) and aimed at taking this trail up to the ridge. In order to do so, one should first follow the northbound trail (into the direction of Haus) up to Vikno (or almost all the way there), before then turning around and up a gentle ridge. Instead, we turned right way earlier, ending >>>

Høgafjellet (and Hikletten) from Lonadalen

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
5:30h
Entfernung:
17,7km

Very nice round including Høgafjellet on Osterøy, starting from its south, i.e., Lonadalen. Using Osterøybrua to conveniently cross over to Osterøy, we turn right before entering the tunnel, driving to Bruvik from there. Leaving the fjord there, we ascended to the saddle in the north of Bruvik (and in the east of Brøknipa) to connect to the interior of Osterøy along road 5418. Before getting all the way down to the large lakes in the middle of Osterøy, we turned right, entering a gravel road that would bring us to Lonadalen, passing by Sagatjørna, Midtvatnet, and Blomdalsvatnet. Near the saddle in Lonadalen, where also the trail from Høgafjellet comes down, we parked and started our hike in northeastern direction, following Lonadalen a bit further, first. At Midttun, we passed >>>

Nice round around Bysheimvatnet

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
5:30h
Entfernung:
16,1km

The weather forecast had improved and promised nice hiking conditions, which let us decide for a "proper" hike. :-) For some time already, we had looked at Skolmen on Osterøy and now a hike up there seemed just right to us. We drove from Bergen to Osterøy (via the bridge) and on Osterøy further to Gjerstad. Continuing past Gjerstad church and Skistad on Gjerstadvegen, we turned right on the other side of the stream, leading us towards Solbjørg. Taking the next turn to the left, we started our passage through Solbjørgsdalen, before turning right, again, at Rymla, driving eastwards into the direction of Låstadvatnet. After passing by the rather large business area next to the stream that comes out of Låstadvatnet, we parked at the side of the road and started hiking from >>>

Tveitafjellet from Fotlandsvåg

Datum:
18.04.2021
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
8,3km

We started in Fotlandsvåg on the north of Osterøy, right next to Fjordslottet (between Herlandsvatnet in the south and Fotlandsvågen in the north), first walking up to the fotball field (in the west of Fotlandsvåg), and from there, diagonally upwards, along a forest road in southern direction. At a bit more than 50mosl, we then stepped onto a marked trail that leads up to Fotlandssætra (about 200mosl) and from there further up to Vetaskaret. While nobody could have asked for a nicer day, with spring temperatures and lots of sun, we soon found the somewhat steep ascent towards Vetaskaret covered in (relatively hard) snow. With a bit of care, however, and/or the right shoes, we nonetheless made our way up without major difficulties. At Vetaskaret, we briefly contemplated a short detour >>>

Kossdalssvingane

Datum:
17.04.2021
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:00h
Entfernung:
7,8km

We drove to Osterøy (via the bridge from E16 in the east of Bergen), continuing first to Lonevåg and from there then to Hosanger. There, we parked maybe 200m from the main road, where Tveitavegen splits from Kossdalsvegen. We then walked into the valley (in southwards direction), following Kossdalsvegen (on the west-side of Kossdalen). This way, we passed by Holevatnet, first, before later crossing over to the east-side of the valley, passing by Kossdalsvatnet then on this side (always following the forest road into Kossdalen). While most of this walk is kind of level into Kossdalen, one eventually meets Kossdalssvingane at the southeastern end of Kossdalen. As an impressive historic construction, the road winds up about 150hm before reaching the saddle towards Svenheimsvegen. When >>>
