Lyklingfjellet from Bømlavegen

Entfernung:
2,5km

After ascending Børøysåta and Børøyklampen , I cycled the short distance to the marked trailhead for Lyklingfjellet (or I guess more correctly the marked trailhead for Hovda , as Lyklingfjellet was not actually mentioned on any of the signs). While it would have been possible to cycle further along the tractor road, it got increasingly more muddy, hence I quickly decided to leave the bike and continue on foot. The tractor road later passed through a gate with grazing sheep on the other side. The sheep were however soon left behind when crossing the fence via a wooden ladder and starting on the marked trail towards Hovda. When the trail later forked I continued on an unmarked trail that, to my surprise, took me all the way to the summit of Lyklingfjellet. There were even red painted trail markers towards the end and a wooden ladder to navigate >>>

Most hikers seem to ascend Børøyklampen from the parking lot at Nautsundet. I had however come across JoSo (Johan Solberg) 's trip report from 2015 where he referred to a marked trail starting further north. At the top of the last hill before descending to Nautsundet I therefore instead followed a short dead end gravel road to an unmarked trailhead named Falkastigen on the map. Here I left the bike behind and continued on foot. While I did not see any of the trail markers Johan mentioned in his report, the trail was there, although rather weak and disappearing several times, most notably when crossing wet areas. As far as I could tell the trail did not go via the highest point at neither Børøysåta nor Sør for Børøysåta but as it was less than 100 meters to the latter I made a quick off-trail visit before returning to the trail. As the trail later turned west towards Børøyklampen it turned >>>

Dagsturhytta på Voss

After yesterday's long hike in Vaksdal I was initially planning on taking it easy today. However, the excellent weather conditions made me reconsider and I decided on a visit of the new dagsturhytte at Voss as a reasonable compromise. The cabin will not officially open until the fall but is already complete and ready for visitors. You can find more information about the cabin and how to get to it here . I started by taking the train to Voss. From the train station I followed various roads, and two shortcuts, up to the start of Raugstadvegen. Here the road changed from pavement to gravel and I soon had to pass through a gate with the potential of grazing cows and sheep on the other side. I only saw a couple of horses though and they did not pay me much attention. At the next crossroads I left the gravel road and turned northeast on a rougher tractor road and passed through >>>

Storfjella and Geitafjella from Vikaneset

Entfernung:
26,6km

Ever since visiting Øyadalen with two colleagues almost exactly three years ago I had wanted to return to ascend Storfjella and Geitafjella . The main reason for waiting this long is that the Stamnes area is not the most easily accessible by public transport, especially during weekends. For this Friday of my summer holiday I therefore first took the train to Dale and from there the bus to Vikaneset (note: bus stop just called Vik). After getting off the bus, where I had been the only passenger (which would also be the case for the return trip to Dale), I started ascending north along the paved road up Vikadalen. I had not walked for more than a couple of minutes though before seeing the first sign stating that the road was closed! This brought back bad memories from my failed attempt at ascending Matrenipa three years earlier when a closed road had ruined all of my plans. Thankfully, today the sign turned >>>

Still very low on energy after two nights of little sleep due to a cold. More ambitious hiking plans were therefore replaced by a quick visit of Saurås søyle . Or at least that was the plan, but just as I got close to the trig marker it suddenly started pouring down and I had to run to find shelter. After waiting for several minutes, I gave up and returned to the bus stop at Åsamyrane. But at least I got close enough to take a picture of the trig marker.
