Kampestølsrusta, Giskanuten and Nordvest for Jonåsen

Datum:
20.09.2025
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:15h
Entfernung:
11,1km

After ascending Holmedalsfjellet , Petter and I drove the short distance north to Tveitedalen p-plass . Here we left the car behind and continued on a gravel road on the east side of Bakkastølsvatnet. After crossing a bridge north of the lake we then made our way off-trail towards the summit of Kampestølsrusta , following deer tracks whenever these seem to head in the wanted direction. Except for one steepish section that required a bit of easy route-finding, we had no real challenges getting up to the ridge which we then proceeded to follow via several false summits to arrive at the highest point. We did not stay long before descending the same way and then followed a road used for skiing that took us to the bridge on the west side of Bakkastølsvatnet. Petter than returned to the car, while I started my off-trail ascent to Giskanuten , a summit he had already visited >>>

I was picked up by Petter at my place at 07:15 for the drive to Gjermundshamn and the 09:00-ferry to Årsnes. After another hour of driving we arrived at Holmedal to start our ascent of Holmedalsfjellet . There were no proper parking spaces but after talking to some of the locals we were allowed to park more or less at the start of a tractor road which would take us most of the way to the summit. To our surprise, the tractor road, and the later trail, was marked with red T's, although most of the markers were very faded and often difficult to spot. When the tractor road later came to an end, we continued on a weak and wet trail that took us to a second tractor road which we then follow until it turned into a trail that, although rather weak, could be followed all the way to the summit. There was a large cairn near >>>

Vetlafjellet via Stalheim

After taking the train to Voss I continued by bus to Stalheim. Usually, the bus stops outside Stalheim Hotel but due to an event filling up the large parking lot outside the hotel, which the buses need to be able to return to the main road, I had to get off at the start of Stalheimsvegen instead. This did not make much of a difference though and I quickly covered the extra distance along the paved road before starting on the gravel road up Brekkedalen. (Note that if coming by car there is a 100 kr toll that can be paid by Vipps.) The long walk up to Tverraldskaret was less boring than expected, largely thanks to the excellent views along the way, and while I did not meet any other hikers there were lots of sheep and cows around, in addition to farmers in the process of gathering their sheep before the winter. >>>

Austdalsnuten

Sunday hike to Austdalsnuten organized by Voss Utferdslag . After catching a very early train from Bergen, I caught up with the other hikers at Voss shortly before 08:00 for the roughly 1.5-hour bus ride to Austdalsvatnet. When getting off the bus we were at over 1000 meters above sea level and only 1.3 km from the summit, but given the terrain, including Austdalsvatnet blocking our way, we had to do a rather long detour before starting the real ascent from the south. On our way to the smaller lakes south of Austdalsnuten we partly followed a route used by the local farmers when transporting their sheep to their summer grazing areas. There were even small cairns showing the way but these were not always easy to spot and we thus made good use of our local guide. The clue seemed to be to be patient and ascend high enough >>>

Gjetingsdalen to Årvik via Grønhaug and Storahorga

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
7:32h
Entfernung:
16,2km

Warning: The trail this hike seemingly follows down to Årvik does not exist! Instead there is a steep off-trail descent. Read the report carefully. Petter picked up me and Kjell in Ytre Sandviken shortly after seven on a Saturday morning for a joint drive to Tørvikbygd and the ferry to Jondal. From Jondal we drove the short distance south to Gjetingsdalen, paid the 60 kr toll fee and continued up to the small parking lot at the end of the gravel road. We started by following a trail to Norddalen and from there continued on a much weaker trail, although marked by orange paint, up towards Isdalsvatnet. The trail markers were overall easy to follow however the trail itself was very weak at best. Shortly after passing the small lake south of Isdalsvatnet we in any case had to abandon the markers as they turned southeast and presumably >>>

Fløysvingene and Skredderdalen

Sunday hike at Fløyen with the goal to identify a viewpoint we had come across in a picture included in the annual report from Bergens Skog- og Træplantningsselskap . After taking the bus to the city center I walked up to Fløyen via Fløysvingene where I met my parents. They had arrived via Fløibanen and together we continued to the lower part of "lysløypen" where it did not take long before we found the spot the picture had been taken. It provided an excellent view and could be reached in two ways, with the shorter option via a trail from the gravel road to the southeast being the easiest. We proceeded to descended via Skredderdalen to Mulen. Here I continued on my own to Munkebotn and then took the bus back to Lønborg.

For the second weekend in a row I took the train to Voss, but where I last Sunday continued on an almost empty bus towards Ulvik I today got on one out of a total of four buses packed with tourists heading to Gudvangen. That was not my plan though and I instead got off at the last stop before Stalheim. (Tip: ask the driver to let you off before the bus takes its detour to Stalheim, as apparently there is an extended stop there.) After getting off the bus I briefly walked south along the main road on a separate cycling and walking path, crossed the road and continued on the gravel road to Fyre where I located the marked trailhead next to the parking lot . A tractor road took me up to the start of the marked trail to Grindaflethytta . I however only stayed on this trail until Øvsthus, where I left the main trail and continued on a marked trail towards Stalheimsnipa . When getting to >>>

On a Sunday in mid-August where the warm summer weather made a comeback, I hopped on a train Voss and from there continued by bus to Ulsberg, where I for the second time had to help the bus driver locate the bus stop (see my hike to Kjerringafjellet and Kvasshovden ). After getting off the bus, I first followed the gravel road to Solsævatnet and then continued on the unmarked trail via Rubbelii to Nedre Skor. This was overall straightforward with the main challenge being to spot the trail between the numerous tall ferns doing their best to hide it. I think I made a wrong turn after crossing the stream west of Rubbelii though, descending to the lake instead of continuing upwards. I therefore shortly ended up on a much weaker trail before reconnecting with the main trail. (Note that there is also a trail going around the lake. So be sure >>>
