Kvamsfjellet and Svarthamrane
A return to Kvamsfjellet in Lindås given that I was not 100% sure that I had visited the highest point during my first ascent back in 2017. I largely followed the same route as last time, but skipped Vassberget this time around and instead headed directly for Kvamsfjellet, first along a gravel road and then via a rather wet marked trail.
As it turned out, my revisit was not in vain, as the real summit was a bit less than 40 meters east/southeast from what I at my first visit had thought was the summit cairn. The real summit was in the middle of a dense juniper thicket making it tricky to locate the exact highest point. But thankfully the distance was only around seven meters from the trail heading south towards Svarthamrane.
Satisfied that I had finally visited the highest point at Kvamsfjellet, I continued south to Svarthamrane and then onwards to Erstadvegen, before concluding the hike by following the roads south to Knarvik for the bus back to Bergen.
