Helgasete from Barsnesfjorden

Datum:
10.04.2022
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
3:55h
Entfernung:
7,7km

We started from the private parking lot at the end of the gravel road on the east side of Barsnesfjorden. From there we followed the trail via Dal to Helgasete . Snow covered the trail from just below Dal and there were light snow showers at Helgasete. Note that the road to where the trail starts is private, i.e. no cars allowed. There are however a couple of parking spaces down by the small wharf along Barsnesfjorden just before the road turns west and starts climbing slightly towards the crossroads at Barsnes.

When a meeting at Solstrand ended after a late lunch, I had originally planned to take the ferry across the fjord to go hiking in Fusa. However, after waking up to a snow-covered Solstrand, it was clear that my hike would take significantly longer than planned and I would be at risk of not catching the all-important bus back to Bergen. I therefore decided to play it safe and instead do a revisit of Borgafjellet and Møsnuken . At least this would allow me to visit the new dagsturhytte at Borgafjellet, in addition to some other minor summits I had not previously visited. When the rest of my colleagues embarked on the bus back to Bergen, I began my hike from Solstrand and soon arrived at the steep ascent to Borgafjellet. Little to no snow at the start, but it gradually increased as I got closer to the summit, with perhaps a couple of centimeters >>>

Moldaneset and Moldaåsen from Solstrand

9,6km

At the first return to Solstrand after the pandemic, I used the extended break before dinner to explore Moldaneset and Moldaåsen . Roads and trails were followed for the entire hike, except for the short off-trail detour to the summit of Moldaåsen. The first part of the hike even had a marked trail, although I misunderstood the signs and made an unnecessary detour instead of heading directly to the tip of Moldaneset. On my way to Moldaåsen, I also visited Salbuneset/Salbuvika (still following a trail), mainly to get at least some views, as I knew that these would be limited from the summit. This was indeed also the case, and while the summit could be reached without any issues, it is probably not a location that most hikers will feel the need to visit. I also went to the highest point at Gråberget (on the other side >>>

Åsen from Fonnaland/Vikøyvegen

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:09h
Entfernung:
5,6km

A short hike to the summit of Åsen starting from the bus stop at the main road and heading up the paved side road to Øvre Aksnes. After passing the final house (and a turkey farm, see elbow (Vegard Magnussen) 's trip report as I did not see any turkeys myself), I continued on a tractor road that took me almost all the way to the summit. Reaching the summit was thus straightforward and only required a short off-trail section (less than 150 meters). Still some snow on the tractor road and at the summit area, but it was packed hard and I could easily walk on top of it. No clear highest point and very limited views, hence I did not stay long before returning along the same route. Overall, not the most interesting summit, but the excellent views from Øvre Aksnes more than made up for it.

Bjørnehaugen from Gjermundshamn

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
5:44h
Entfernung:
21,4km

A return to Gjermundshamn for a visit of Bjørnehaugen . Note that on the map the area is referred to as Bjørnehaugen, i.e. one extra 's', while the summit is named Bjørnahaugen, but for simplicity I will stick with name used on PB. As usual when visiting a remote minor summit with limited views, I made it into a longer trip to make it slightly more interesting. In this particular case this was only partly voluntary, as the only way for me to get anywhere close to Bjørnehaugen (without needing a car) was to first take the bus to Gjermundshamn and then start my hike from there. And while this initial walk along the road may seem boring, the limited traffic and the excellent views towards the snow-capped mountains across the fjord made for a rather enjoyable start to the trip. Shortly after passing Tveitane, >>>

I started by taking the bus to Gjermundshamn where I ended up taking the bus one stop too far, but thankfully managed to get off before the bus drove onto the ferry. After returning to the crossroads a couple hundred meters to the southwest, I walked along the road to Ølve until reaching the marked trailhead for Blånuten . No sidewalks, but very limited traffic. I left the road/trail heading for Blånuten at the first crossroads and instead followed a tractor road taking me all the way to Hovdaberget and its spectacular views. Very easy to get to and highly recommended for its excellent views towards the many mountains across the fjord. Especially beautiful at this time of the year due to the snow-capped peaks. After a quick off-trail visit of the summit of Hjortlandshovda , a major let down after the views at Hovdaberget and >>>
