After yesterday’s long hike at Voss , I had originally not planned on hiking this Sunday. But with excellent August weather forecasts this was not really an option. I therefore hopped on a bus to Dyrkolbotn for a hike to Eggene , Godbotnsfjellet and Geiteskardfjell . I had previously studied the reports from gapahuken (Torbjørn Rygg Haugland) and knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) (see here and here ) and decided to pretty much follow in their footsteps. The only major difference being that I started from the main road and thus did not bother to head all the way to the northern parking lot at Dyrkolbotn , but instead had a go at the trail on the westside of Botnavatnet/Heimevatnet. A trail that was rather weak and currently well-hidden by the tall grasses. It was however (at least partially) marked and was still relatively easy to follow. (It would most likely have been just as fast to follow the alternative route on the eastside of the lake though.) Just >>>

Vossamarsjen 2021 + Skorane, Nansenbu and Torfinnshorgi

Vossamarsjen is a yearly hike organized by the Norwegian Trekking Association , or more specifically Voss Utferdslag , starting from Hodnaberg and following the T-marked trail via Torfinnsheim , Timaglaset , Gråsidetoppen and Roset , before ending up at Gjelle. My plan was to take advantage of the joint bus transportation from/to Voss and follow most of the official Vossamarsjen route, but also make a couple of minor detours to along the way. I therefore got up at 05:00 on a Saturday morning for the first train to Voss. After waiting close to 45-minutes for the next (and last) organized bus ride, we all finally left Voss just after 09:00. Note that due to roadwork close to Narheim, the earlier buses had all gone via Bergsdalen, but we thankfully got to skip this longer detour by instead walking past the roadwork and hopping on a second bus on the other side. At 09:45 we arrived at the parking lot at Hodnaberg >>>

Lønahorgi from Hangurstoppen

21,9km

A visit of Lønahorgi had been on my agenda for a while. So I decided to make the most out of my last day of summer vacation and hopped on an early morning train to Voss. Here I decided on "cheating" by taking the cable car (see Voss Gondol ) to the top of Hangur , and thus for once started a hike with descending from the first minor peak of the hike. In fact, this was so unusual that I almost missed the sign for the trail to Lønahorgi, as it does a minor detour via Valbergstjørni and eastern side of Slettafjellet . The advantage compared to the more direct route via Trodalstølen is that one pretty much stays at the same altitude. The trail was marked with red T's and easy to follow, and I quickly connected with the tractor road coming up from Trodalstølen. From here on the trail partly followed the road and partly made >>>

Storevasseggene and Blådalsnipa from Nordkvingo

Tourlänge:
4:40h
Entfernung:
14,7km

I started by taking the bus (or rather buses, four in total) to arrive at Nordkvingo where I got off at the stop called Sønsthaugen. Here I easily located the marked trailhead for Kalvedalshytta , which I then proceeded to follow. At first the trail was relatively steep, helped by various stone steps and metal railing, but it soon levelled off and it did not take too long before it started descending towards Gjelet where it connected with the new trail coming up from Nordkvingo p-plass . The trail was marked with red T's and was overall easy to follow. After briefly passing by Blådalsvatnet, the trail shortly descended to south of Setertjørna where I got the first views of both Storevasseggene and Blådalsnipa , plus a nice overview of Nordkvingesetret , before the trail again started ascending into the valley in between Storevasseggene and Klefjellnipa . Just before the marked trail >>>

Afternoon hike with the goal of visiting Rødsaksla , a minor summit on the Alle topper i Bergen list. I started by taking the bus to Rød, where I for some reason thought that I ought to get off at the bus stop referred to as "Rød nord, Bergen", while the correct one would have been "Rød sør, Bergen" which is located right next to the trailhead. But after a short 500 meters walk along the road I arrived at the unmarked trailhead discovered by knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) and Astrid (Astrid S. Andersen) on their hike to Rødsaksla a couple of months earlier . This resulted in it being straightforward to get pretty close to the summit, even though the trail turned rather weak towards the end. (Note that as the GPS track indicates, I also made a short attempt at a more direct shortcut by following an alternative trail early on. But decided to return to the main trail when the alternative trail ended in a wet >>>

Fannaråken from Turtagrø

Entfernung:
19,2km

We drove from Sogndal to Turtagrø and parked at the opposite side of the road from Turtagrø Hotell . Lots of other hikers at Turtagrø, but as soon as we started on the trail towards Helgedalen, the number of people rapidly decreased and we soon found ourselves all on our own. (In fact, we would meet less than 50 people for the entire hike.) We shortly connected with the gravel road in Helgedalen, which we then proceeded to follow until reaching the marked trail for Fannaråken below Ekrehytta. After this easy start of just over 200 vertical meters spread out over a bit less than 5 km, the real hike started with another 900 meters left to climb over less than half the distance. The trail was clearly marked and overall easy to follow, and there were only a couple of short sections early on where hikers with a severe fear of heights might struggle. We actually >>>

Short hike from Åsen p-plass to Bjella via Bjedlastølen with the main objective of looking for blueberries and cloudberries. In the end, the former was much more successful than the latter. Marked and easy to follow trails.
