Saurås søyle

Date:
23.07.2023
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
0:26h
Distance:
1.5km

Still very low on energy after two nights of little sleep due to a cold. More ambitious hiking plans were therefore replaced by a quick visit of Saurås søyle . Or at least that was the plan, but just as I got close to the trig marker it suddenly started pouring down and I had to run to find shelter. After waiting for several minutes, I gave up and returned to the bus stop at Åsamyrane. But at least I got close enough to take a picture of the trig marker.

Kyststien Strandvegen

Date:

Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
0:55h
Distance:
3.7km

After last year's successful hike to Moldaneset as part of a two-day conference at Solstrand , I was again asked to organize a short walk when we now returned a year later. Given that the break before dinner was slightly shorter this time around we headed southwest from the hotel to cover the rest of Kyststien Strandvegen . To make the walk into a roundtrip, we first followed the main road towards Osøyro before returning along the gravel road to the hotel, including a small detour to Haugsneset. Overall, a nice short walk that can be recommended if at Solstrand and having some spare time.

When having to wait roughly half an hour at Knarvik, we decided to spend the time trying out the gravel road around Kvassnesstemma . This turned out to be a very nice short walk with great views along the way. Highly recommended if in the area and not having enough time for a proper hike.

Steinsdalsfossen from Norheimsund

Date:
02.04.2022
Characteristic:
Walk
Duration:
0:45h
Distance:
3.1km

After my short hike to Åsen , I returned by bus to Norheimsund, where I had almost an hour to kill before the next bus to Bergen. I therefore decided to pay Steinsdalsfossen a visit. A location I had not visited since I was a child. Sadly, the waterfall was not yet officially opened for the summer, and I could not do the unique walk behind the waterfall. But at least I more or less had the waterfall to myself, which is rarely the case during the summer. After a short lunch break, the bus arrived to take me back to Bergen.
