Yet another short hike to visit new peaks on the Alle topper i Bergen list. First up was Vardehaugen , which was easily accessible via a trail from the north. Limited views from the summit, but Bildøybakken could be spotted in the distance. When continuing south along the trail across the summit, I also came across a metal trig marker on a slightly smaller hill. This trail later turned into a narrow gravel road before connecting with the wider gravel road east of Vardevatnet. I proceeded to follow the gravel roads until getting just north of Bjørnhaugen . Here I passed through a gate and continued on a trail which later turned into an animal track taking me all the way to the summit. Bjørnhaugen consisted of two small hills in which the northern one was slightly higher and contained a small metal trig marker. The best views were however achieved >>>

Yet another hike to visit small hills recently added to the ever-growing Alle topper i Bergen list. First up was Hilrafjellet . It has a bus stop right next to it, but I managed to take the bus one stop too far and had to start the hike by walking back up to the hill. But before doing so, I waited for maybe 10 minutes in the bus shelter for the rain to stop. When it finally did, I quickly returned to the planned bus stop and followed the roads up to the final house south of Hilrafjellet. Here there was a small road up to the remains of several military installations with excellent views in all directions. The summit itself was reached via a short but wet detour. Next, I returned to the main road and followed it to Medhaugen . While I had been pretty sure that I could easily get to the summit of Hilrafjellet, I was less sure about Medhaugen. >>>
