Fjordsyn from Agnavika

Date:

Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
1:13h
Distance:
2.9km

On the way home from Sogndal, Sigjoern (Sigbjørn Holm) , Marthine and I, decided to make a short stop at Stanghelle to enjoy the excellent weather for a visit of Fjordsyn . We parked at the parking lot in Agnavika . It was however also possible to park along the road even closer to the trailhead. The marked trail was more varied than expected but straightforward to follow and we quickly arrived at very nice location of Fjordsyn, with Veafjorden and Osterøy to the west and Storafjellet looming in the background to the north. From the small lighthouse just southwest of the cabin we could even spot Solaråsen in the distance. After a short break we returned along the same route and completed the drive home to Bergen.

Hauståkernakken utsiktspunkt from Vesterland

Date:

Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
2:47h
Distance:
11.3km

After celebrating my niece’s confirmation at Vesterland , I convinced Sigjoern (Sigbjørn Holm) and Marthine to join me for a hike to Hauståkernakken utsiktspunkt . Excellent views all the way from Vesterland to the locked gate above Dalåker . From here until reaching our goal, the views were much more limited due to lots of trees. But this only helped build anticipation to when the views finally opened up at the end of the tractor road and we could enjoy the stunning views across Amlabukti with a snow-covered Bleia in the background. As the sun was setting, we however did not stay long before heading back. First along the tractor road but soon instead following marked bike trail shortcuts. Overall, an excellent short hike that can be very highly recommended.
