Bjørnehaugen from Gjermundshamn

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 >>>

Short local hike after work. (The GPS stopped working shortly into the hike, and not detect until almost back home, hence no GPS track. See Ørneberget and Ørneberget NV for an identical hike.)

Short local hike after work including an exploration of the northern tip of Eidsvågsneset/Furubotn, an area I had previously assumed was only available via trespassing. This was however far from the case, and it was even set up as a local recreational area that was easily accessible.

After our hike at Tyssøyna , we made the short drive to the parking lot in front of Bjorøy skule. From there we walked about 250 meters south along the road to an unmarked trailhead taking us via Langafjellet (although not via the highest point, which is on a small ridge less than 150 meters to the west) to Nibben . Pretty good views from the summit, although not as great as from Varden on Tyssøyna. So far, the trail had been ok and even had the occasional trail marker, but shortly after turning northeast for Rundelen the trail pretty much disappeared (even though we were following the trail indicated on the map). We did however connect with a marked trail shortly before turning north towards the summit. Hence there should be a better route in between these two summits. This new trail took us almost to the summit of Rundelen, except >>>

Given the excellent weather forecast, I decided to take half a day of "vinterferie" to explore Tyssøyna and Bjorøyna. First up was Tyssøyna. We parked at Tyssøyna p-plass and from there followed the roads towards the marked trailhead for the short detour to Varden , which provided great views despite being only 80 meters above sea level. We continued south, and later west, still along a marked trail until reconnecting with the gravel road east of the summit. After a visit of Simvågen we followed yet another marked trail along the coast via Skjervika and Tyssøyvågen before getting to the paved road and from there returning to the car. Overall, a very nice short trip that can be highly recommended.
