Small hills east of Sotrabroen

Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
2:06h
Distance:
6.8km

An overall gray Saturday was used to visit small peaks on the Utvalgte topper og turmål i Bergen list. Thanks to knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) 's recent reports, it was overall straightforward to get to all of the summits. Skipparhaugen was ascended directly from the southeast in order to avoid a detour. This required a bit of easy scrambling at the start, but was otherwise unproblematic. After a quick visit of Storhaugen , which had a trail all the way to the summit, I made a detour to Janahaugen. The summit can be easily reached via a trail, but I did not add it as a new PB element as there is a higher point (inside a private garden) just to the north of where Janahaugen is indicated on the map. Ramsvikhaugen was ascended from the bus stop to the east. Here there was a trail that could be followed all the way to the summit. The trailhead was not very clear, but the trail itself was easy to >>>

Larslibua, Steinsfjellet and Botlenipa

Date:
29.12.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:52h
Distance:
8.1km

A short hike at Litlesotra with the main objective of visiting Larslibua . A small cabin on the newly created Dagsturhyttene i Vestland list. I also made a quick visit of the summit of Steinsfjellet , although my ascent required more fighting with the low vegetation than expected. The descent route was slightly better. I had also planned to visit Ørnanipa , but as I failed to locate the trailhead (probably due to the snow?), I instead went for a revisit of Botlenipa , before returning to the main road and the bus back to Bergen.

Skåldalsnipa, Grøna and Sælinga

Date:
26.12.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:10h
Distance:
7.8km

A return to Skåldalsnipa with the main goal of doing a small detour to also visit Grøna , a minor summit on the Utvalgte topper og turmål i Bergen list. On the return, I also made a quick stop at Sælinga in order to add a picture from the summit (which I had not done on my last visit due it then being too dark). The trails to/from Skåldalsnipa were partially covered by ice, but most of it could be pretty easily avoided.
