Skagen, Håkeberget and Veten

Date:
22.11.2020
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:35h
Distance:
15.7km

Another hike in Åsane with the main goal of visiting Håkeberget . A minor peak I had passed several times but never bothered to go to the actual summit. Strong winds today as well, almost making it difficult to stand upright at the summit of Veten . I went for a slightly unusual descent from Veten, which was an interesting alternative to the normal route, but as can be seen from the GPS-track it was clearly not a shortcut. My choice to stay on the right-hand side of the fence towards the end did not help though, and resulted in an extra detour.

Storåsen i Åsane

Date:

Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
2:10h
Distance:
10.7km

Local hike in Åsane with the first registered visit of Storåsen i Åsane . Lots of minor trails all across this small hill. I ascended from the south on a rather wet trail and descended towards the west on a slightly better trail. The summit provided nice views in the direction of Høgstefjellet . From one of the two slightly lower summits to the south there were also ok views to the southwest. I also included a short detour to the lower summit west of Storåsen, which provided a good overview of Åsane Storsenter.

Dystingen and Flatafjellet

Date:

Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:53h
Distance:
7.8km

We parked outside Fosse Kraftverk and from there walked 100 meters west along the road to the marked trailhead for Dystingen . The marked trail was relatively steep, especially at the start, and contained lots of wet sections, but could overall be followed without any issues. As the trail turned west towards the summit of Dystingen, I made an off-trail detour to Flatafjellet on my own, before we later reunited at the summit of Dystingen. My route to Flatafjellet did not provide any challenges, perhaps with the exception of trying to locate the exact summit, as Flatafjellet definitely lives up to its name. As far as I could tell, there are two competing summits, so I visited both just to be sure. From Flatafjellet, I returned along more or less the same route to the marked trail to Dystingen.
