Sollikammen Started by taking the bus to Furuberg and in the light rain walking along the main road towards the start of the tractor road for Sollikammen . No sidewalk, but a pretty straight road with good overview of any cars coming my way. As I reached the gravel road taking off northwest along Rydlandsvågen I crossed the road and located the tractor road going southeast along Storavatnet. Clearly not very heavily used, but it did make it straightforward to arrive at the trailhead for Sollikammen, just where the tractor road turned northeast. The trailhead was unmarked, but easy to locate if one knows where to look for it. The trail itself was marked with the odd white plastic marker, but far from frequently enough to be of any real use. At the start the trail was easy to follow, but upon reaching the >>>

Ulriken

Entfernung:
6,8km

Quick hike to Ulriken as part of a competition at work for the fastest time from Montana to the upper station of Ulriksbanen. However, I managed to make wrong turn halfway and ended up on the old trail instead of the agreed upon new stone steps. Realizing that my time would not be valid, I lost most of my motivation and slowed down before reaching the top, ending up at 26 minutes and 43 seconds. After a short break I made a detour to the actual summit of Ulriken, before returning back down to Montana. Not the most interesting hike now what one can follow stone steps almost all the way to the upper station of Ulriksbanen. Feels more like a workout than hiking...

Skjelanger to Fløksand

Entfernung:
18,0km

I was lucky enough to hitch a ride to Skjelanger (which is not very accessible by bus) and was dropped off at one of the three main starting points for hiking to Storafjellet . Like the other two, this starting point also had the information sign and a marked trailhead, and included a small parking lot with room for a couple of cars. However, while the trailhead was marked, the start of the trail was not very clear as it crossed a field. This soon improved, but shortly afterwards I made a wrong turn by continuing through a gate instead of turning left. I quickly corrected the mistake, but the signs could be better here. From there on the trail was easy to follow, although rather wet at times, until reaching the summit of Storafjellet, which provided excellent views in all directions. Probably one of the best views one can obtain >>>

Åsheimveten, Tveitafjellet and Rotten

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
5:01h
Entfernung:
19,5km

Åsheimveten Started by taking the bus (and ferry) to Fotlandsvåg and locating the marked gravel road towards Åsheimveten just south of the football field. An information sign indicated two possible starting options: either follow the gravel road or take the steeper trail. I went for the trail, which reconnected with the gravel road just before reaching Fotlandssætra , where the gravel road also came to an end. The separate start of the trail was clearly marked and the trail was of good quality and easy to follow. Shortly after leaving Fotlandssætra the trail got significantly steeper, especially the last stretch up to where the trail split for Åsheimveten or Tveitafjellet . But from there on it was easy to reach the summit of Åsheimveten, which provided spectacular views in all directions. Tveitafjellet Next, I returned to the >>>

Entfernung:
16,8km

Svekanen Started by taking the bus to Furuberg and, with the help of previous PB-reports, easily located the road towards Svekanen . I did however miss the trailhead, even though it was marked, and ended up following the road a bit too far. On my return I easily located the trailhead, which had been slightly hidden by a tree. The trail itself was also marked, but at times the markers were more easily spotted than the trail itself. This improved just before the trail entered the dense forest, which is also where the best views, predominantly to the east, could be obtained. From there on there were pretty much no views at all. And while the trail markers were still there, it was not always clear where the trail continued. The summit area did contain a visitor register, but it was very well hidden, and I >>>
