Around Tyssøy on a windy day

Datum:
23.02.2019
Tourcharakter:
Wanderung
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
5,4km

We took the car to Tyssøy (via Mathopen, then through the tunnel under Vatlestraumen, and then across Bjorøyna) and parked at Støene, where also the bus turns around. Our plan was to walk around the island and thus we left the "main road" already in the first turn (towards the southeast). We came by quite a number of goats before visiting Storeklubben first. From there, we first went a few steps back in order to reconnect with the main trail that leads southwards along the shore of Tyssøy (but a bit higher up in the terrain). We followed the well-marked path southwards until we came near to Slettevikklubben. There, instead of further following the trail, which leads "back" towards the central trail across the island, we improvised towards Børvika. This wasn't >>>

Førdesveten from Stranda

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:45h
Entfernung:
7,1km

We took road 555 towards Sotra and then further south to Sund. At the Stranda school we parked, starting our hike from there. We first followed a well-visible path over Lamhusfjellet in order to get into Kleppadalen. Also there, the path was easy to follow and we continued along it into the direction of Førdesveten. From Kleppadalen, we then ascended in northeastern direction towards a saddle, where another path comes down from Ramnaberget in the southeast. Instead of immediately continuing towards Førdesveten, we decided to quickly ascend Storevarden (in the northwest of the saddle). There were no steps to see in the snow, but proceeding to the top was nonetheless quite OK. At Storevarden, one can appreciate an impressive stone wall that probably was built to confine sheep towards >>>

Snow-covered Liatårnet from Li

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
2:15h
Entfernung:
4,8km

Considering the snow-covered landscape outside and comparably good weather, it was not too difficult to decide for a nice Sunday hike. We took our car towards the west (Sotra) and there to Li (on the east-side of Liatårnet). Near Haugane, we parked and continued along Liaskjervegen walking until we came to Hola, where we found Hølo (a short road up to the west from F206). Pretty much at the top end of this short road, we then found the path to Liatårnet (and were positively surprised that it was easy to find!). Since someone had gone there already, it was even easy to step up the snow-covered path. Furthermore, we got the impression that rather recently a substantial effort must have been put into this path (with a few signs here and there, a proper stone bridge across a small stream, >>>

Brakafjellet etc.

Entfernung:

We expected a few hours of nice weather and thus left home before lunch to get started. Also this time , our plan was to hike some not so often visited tops in Sund kommune. We took road 555 to Sotra and then further to the south until we came to a small place called Vorland. There, we parked and started our hike along Gjerdevegen (in eastern direction). Soon behind the last house at Gjerdevegen we crossed over some wet terrain (still in eastern direction), in order to connect to a simple path that then continues in northeastern direction (towards Kleiva). At Kleiva, we departed from the trail and continued in northeaster direction through a little valley. We continued through a trough into the direction of Djupeskarvatnet (all this without a path). At Djupeskarvatnet, we connected to another simple >>>

Tveitafjellet

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:30h
Entfernung:
4,1km

In order to get some fresh air, we disregarded the unfavorable weather conditions (rather strong storm, intermixed with some precipitation) and headed towards Sotra. The bridge (Sotrabrua) was guarded on both sides, because of the strong winds, but we could still cross over. On Sotra, we continued along road #555 towards Fjell and from there further south, coming by Dala and Hammarsland. At Tveita, we then started to look out for a spot, where we could park, but continued to Eide just a bit further south to actually find a suitable place along the road. Sine we had planned to go up Tveitafjellet first, we first walked a bit back along the road (in northern direction) until we found a good spot to enter Eidesdalen, just southwest of Tveitafjellet. Only a few steps into this valley, however, >>>

Storskaret and Ebbesvikfjellet on Litlesotra

Entfernung:
8,2km

Since we had plans to buy a few things at a shop at Straume, we decided to use a bit of time for getting some fresh air nearby. While driving to Litlesotra, we repeatedly changed our minds in terms of which road to follow, ending up in Straumsfjellvegen, eventually. Understanding that his road would not let us drive further into the south of Litlesotra, we decided to park at a southern spot along Svartabergje and to walk from there. We used a connection for pedestrians to get down to Arefjordvegen first, before following this street in eastern direction a bit (until a rather large roundabout right next to Storskaret). Looking at the rather steep northern flank of Storskaret, we got a bit unsure concerning the idea to climb up to it (instead of following some more streets). We still gave >>>

Algrøyna, Barmaneset, Langtrotten -- wow!

Tourcharakter:

Tourlänge:
3:30h
Entfernung:
6,4km

We parked the cars just before entering the main village on Algrøyna and started to hike from there. It had just poored down substantially, but as we started hiking the weather improved and soon we saw some sun, also! :-) We first followed the "main road", Nordre Øyavegen, in a longer swing to the right/north, before turning left, continuing on Kongvikvegen. Before the end of this road and about where Kungvika has its western-most point, we left the road, walking around a farm house right next to the road, in order to connect to the southern side of Kungvika (and eventually to Barmaneset). Once on the "middle" peninsula of Algrøyna, we followed a path with blue marks towards the west. This path leads out on Barmaneset and to Krabbakeila at its western end. Enjoying >>>

Nice and wild Skogsøyna

Entfernung:
8,1km

We parked our cars near the bridge between Skogsøyna and Herdlevær, where a board also tells the hikers about the island and the paths that one can take. From there, we followed the main path along the northwestern shore of Skogsøyna, heading towards the spectacular southwestern end of the island. After a bit of hiking, we approached Skogsøytua, i.e., the highest point on this trip (about 45mosl). From there, instead of heading back "as usually", we first explored the lower parts of the cliffs at Skogshola. Note that it is critical that you indeed judge the situation correctly in order to avoid any dangerous and unwanted problems with the sea. Should it happen that a wave takes you off the stones, it is likely possible that you will end up in severe troubles (others have >>>

Exploring Turøyna

3:00h
Entfernung:
3,3km

It was time to get out to Turøyna and explore the rather wild nature there! We started from the street to the small settlement on Turøyna and headed towards the large cairn, Turøyvarden, on the largest top of the island. From there, we continued northwards (and without any path) to reach Svartanova via Tuskeluren. From there, to get further northwest to Laksneset, we had to find a way to cross over a rather deep trough. Starting relatively low on Svartanova and searching for a proper place "on half height", walking in southwestern direction, proved to be the right approach and after only a few steps, we were able to cross over. Then it was straight forward to get to Laksneset and enjoy some nice views from there. Continuing our hike around the island, we then followed the >>>

Short hike on Storskora

After our hike on Turøyna , we continued with a short hike on Storskora, visiting a little light house at the northwestern end of this little island. Following a nicely marked path from the street, it was straight-forward to reach our target. From there, we basically took the same path back, then.
