For the first hike with Petter in half a year, we drove to Jordalen in Voss/Vik to visit three summits that none us had yet ascended. First up was Kjøroldenuten. In order to get as close to the summit as possible, we paid the 50 kr road toll and continued up to Nedstedalen in Fresvikjordalen. Here we found parking next to the road and had easy access to the other side of the river via a bridge I had located on the map.

After crossing the bridge we simply made our own way to the valley south of Kjøroldenuten and from there completed the short remaining ascent to the summit. This last part was steeper but did not present any real challenges. We however did not stay long before turning the attention to our next goal: Nosafjellet.

Following the ridge south from Kjøroldenuten towards Nosafjellet included some up and down but was overall straightforward. The only challenge being the sometimes slippery/icy surfaces. On the way to Nosafjellet I also made a quick visit of Nord for Nosafjellet, while Petter rounded west of the small hill. In the end, the summit of Nosafjellet was reached without any issues. We returned along more or less the same route but of course skipped a revisit of Kjøroldenuten and instead headed more directly towards the bridge.

Overall, a very nice roundtrip that can be highly recommended if planning on visiting both Kjøroldenuten and Nosafjellet. Next, we drove the short distance south to Jordaltunnelen for an ascent of Jordalsnuten.
