Hovden Started by taking the bus (and ferry) to Kilen (bus stop "Kilen kryss") and easily located the unmarked trailhead for Hovden after passing by the house with the address Hålandsvegen 1004. Shortly there were several trail options to choose from. I decided to follow what looked like the most used option, taking me east and then north, before finally turning west towards the summit. Did not take long before I came across the very unusual trail markers, mainly consisting of various plastic road markers of different shapes and sizes, but also with other odd objects thrown in. It made for an interesting hike, but there are clearly better ways to mark trails. The trail can most likely be followed all the way to the summit, but I lost it just as it started raining/snowing, and from there I >>>

Local hike in between rain showers. There was no escaping the strong winds though. After quick visits of Ørneberget and Ørneberget NV , I found a (for me) new trail heading north to Fagerdalsskaret , which provided some excellent views along the way!

Managed to make room for a hike up Oppstemten at the end of a rare day of nice weather. Made it to the top (from the start of the gravel road at Montana) in 26 minutes 58 seconds. Some snow partially covering the stone steps towards the very end.

Hovda from Våge

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
4:24h
Entfernung:
21,8km

Started by taking the bus to Halhjem and the ferry to Våge, from where I walked east along the road for about 8.5 km before locating the marked trailhead for Hovda . On the opposite side of the road from the trailhead, there was also a small parking lot and World War II memorial monument (the latter indicated as "Minnestøtta" on the later trail signs). For the first 400 meters the trail followed a tractor road, before suddenly turning left and leaving the tractor road behind. If this exit had not been marked I would most likely have skipped it, as it at times looked more like a deer track than a marked trail, and it was also very wet. The trail markers were not very frequent, but did show up when needed, and was generally easy to follow. Just don't expect to be able to walk from one marker >>>

Given that my last attempt to visit Singelstadfjellet (in combination with Stølafjellet ) had to be abandoned in order to make sure to make it back in time for the ferry (see Stølafjellet and Ilefjellet from Våge ), I was ready for another attempt when a day of reasonable weather finally came around. As usual, I started by taking the bus to Halhjem and the ferry to Våge, but this time the plan was not to ascend Singelstadfjellet from Dalen, as for my previous hike, but rather from Uggdalsdalen, as my research had uncovered a marked trail from Øyjorda up to Uggdalsvarden : Tursti Øyjoro – Uggdalsvarden , and I assumed it should not be too difficult to continue the short distance to Singelstadfjellet from there. From Våge I therefore started by walking along the roads to Øyjorda, hoping I would easily locate the trailhead. This was however not the case, and to be sure, I knocked on a couple of doors >>>
