Hovåsene from Fortunbakkane
Short hike on a gray and foggy Sunday with the objective of visiting Hovåsen and Hovåsen Sør, two recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list. I used a similar route as for last year’s visit of Nordre Gamletjørnhaugen, although in the opposite order.
After following the marked trail via Nordre Gamletjørnhaugen, I left it shortly after Lillianbrekko and headed off-trail via various deer tracks to the summits of Hovåsen Sør and Hovåsen. At Hovåsen Sør there was a trig bolt and a view down to Kismul Skyte- og friluftssenter (closed on Sundays, except for special events, according to their web page). There may also be ok views from Hovåsen but these were all hidden by the fog.
The easiest choice would now probably have been to return to the trail but given the short distance to the road to the north, I decided to head directly in that direction. This did not present any real challenges but was also the least enjoyable part of the hike. The trip was concluded by following the roads to Kalandseidet for the bus back to the city center.
