Kjeneset and Såta

Datum:
30.10.2022
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:26h
Entfernung:
5,0km

Initial plans to spend the Sunday hiking at Voss had to be abandoned when I for once did not manage to generate the required activation energy to get up and out the door before sunrise, mainly due to suboptimal weather forecasts and overall very wet terrain. As a replacement I went for a shorter hike later in the day at Korsneset to visit yet more minor summits on the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Kjeneset and Såta . Two summits I had been saving for just such a gray and rainy day. After arriving by bus, I pretty much followed in the footsteps of either Kjell51 (Kjell Øijorden) or knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) , where the only real challenge was finding a route up the short step ascent south of the summit of Kjeneset. In the end I found a location where only a little bit of light scrambling was needed. No such issues to reach Såta, but instead there were plenty of wet and >>>

Skorseteggi and Kolingseggi from Oppheimsvatnet to Kløve

Datum:
22.10.2022
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
5:10h
Entfernung:
19,0km

I started by taking the train to Voss with the plan to continue on the bus to Framnes at the western end of Oppheimsvatnet. Due to signaling problems in the tunnel between Bergen and Arna the train ended up arriving 15 minutes late at Voss, but thankfully I still managed to catch the bus heading for Gudvangen. In fact, there were two buses as apparently the tourist season was not quite over. After getting off the bus at Framnes, I walked back along the main road for about 200 meters (on a broad sidewalk) to cross the bridge to the south side of Oppheimsvatnet where I continued south along Langedalsvegen (the second exit to the right) until locating the marked trailhead for Lemme. The first 100 meters or so consisted of a new tractor road where the earth/mud had not quite set yet, but then changed >>>

Slettefjellet via Eikemostølen

Datum:
15.10.2022
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:53h
Entfernung:
12,0km

I started by taking the train to Dale and from there the bus to Eikemo. As I was the only passenger on the bus (and would be so for the return as well), I got a bit of extra service and was dropped off right at the trailhead (the official stop is just 150 meters earlier though). The start of the trail was clearly visible from the road due the many tree trunks marked with blue paint, although the sign for Eikemostølen shown in arntfla (Arnt Flatmo) 's external trip report from 2005 was now on the ground and hardly visible. Following the marked trail made it relatively straightforward to ascend to Eikemostølen, however the trail was clearly not very frequently used and a bit weak at times before pretty much disappearing altogether just before reaching Eikemostølen. While the cabin was still standing when Arnt visited it back in 2005, the roof had now caved >>>

Store and Vetle Finsenuten from Finse 1222

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:47h
Entfernung:
9,9km

On the way back from a conference in Sundvollen , I stopped at Finse with the plan to go hiking both Friday afternoon and Saturday morning before completing the train ride back to Bergen. Less than 15 minutes after checking in at Finse 1222 I had therefore changed into hiking gear and was on my way to Store Finsenuten . The sun was shining, but a strong cold wind from the southeast made it anything but warm. After crossing the tunnel covering the railroad tracks, I continued north along a weak trail before heading off-trail up Finseskaret. South of the summit I came across a trail marked with small cairns that I could follow all the way to the large cairn at the highest point of Store Finsenuten. Great views from the summit, but with the strong wind almost making it difficult to stand upright, and the sun now having disappeared behind the clouds, >>>

Kongens utsikt and Abborås from Sundvolden Hotel

Datum:
29.09.2022
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:39h
Entfernung:
10,5km

When attending a conference at Sundvolden Hotel , I took a slightly longer break before dinner to check out the views at Kongens utsikt . After a short walk south along the road I arrived at the marked trailhead at Krokkleiva and proceeded to follow the gravel road up to Kleivstua . Here I continued on the marked trail to the excellent views at Kongens utsikt. I still had plenty of time before the conference dinner and also made a quick visit of Abboråsen less than 1.5 km to the south. There were trails/tractor roads almost all the way to the highest point, except for the final 100 meters. The summit could thus be easily reached but provided next to no views or other interesting features. I therefore did not stay long before returning to the trail and then heading back to Kleivstua. At Kleivstua I made a minor detour north to Dronningens utsikt , however the views >>>

Malmangersnuten from Rosendal kai

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:19h
Entfernung:
9,6km

Ascending to the top of Malmangersnuten had been on my list ever since I had to turn back at the viewpoint called Hjort just below the summit in May 2008 in order to not be too late for a conference dinner at Baroniet Rosendal . There would be a tight schedule this time around as well, in total 3.5 hours from disembarking in Rosendal until the boat would take me back to Bergen. The two-hour boat trip from Bergen was very nice and provided excellent views along the way. Upon arriving at Rosendal, I immediately headed south to the marked trailhead for Malmangersnuten. After leaving the main road, this included a walk alongside an old stone fence and then a short stretch following a gravel road. The trail was initially climbing steeply inside a relatively dark forest, before the vegetation grew less dense and the views gradually started >>>

Skamdalshorgi, Tinden and Grønahorgi

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
8:34h
Entfernung:
29,4km

Ever since I ran out of time three weeks ago , it felt like I had some unfinished business in Granvin. At the first opportunity I therefore once again took the train to Voss and the bus to Bulkokrysset with the plan to finally ascend Skamdalshorgi . My plan almost got off to a bad start though, as the bus from Voss for some reason did not leave the main road for the detour around Tunsbergtunnelen, thus skipping the bus stop at the start of Bulkovegen that I had gotten off at last time. But thankfully I realized this change just in time and managed to get off the bus before it actually went through the tunnel. With this initial scare out of the way, I walked the short distance to the start of Bulkovegen and proceeded to follow it south to the unmarked trailhead for Skamdalshorgi just north of the summit. (Note that while most of the parking >>>
