- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 6:16h
- Distance:
- 18.7km
For the second time this summer I hitched a ride to Vikafjellet where was dropped off at Nordre Skjelingen and could start my ascent of Urdeggi via the gravel road between the cabins. After passing the final cabin I found my own way to the summit. This was straightforward and the summit provided spectacular views.
From Urdeggi I first walked south on a trail along the ridge, but later headed more directly to the gravel road to the southwest to begin my ascent of Skjelinganosi . The ascent looked steep from a distance but turned out to be a marked trail with small cairns leading the way. Once more the views were impressive, especially near the steep north face.
After a short lunch break, I headed south/southwest via Skjelinganosi Sør to Skabotsvarden . No trails here as far as I could tell but the terrain was easy to traverse and did not present >>>

Joskarfjellet and Høgafjellet
- Date:
- 18.07.2024
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 9:30h
- Distance:
- 30.0km
Warning: This hike contains a steep off-trail descent. Please read the report carefully to see if this is something you are comfortable with.
I started by taking the train to Dale and the bus to Eksingedalen where I got off at "Modalstunnelen sør" (the bus continued through the tunnel). The first part of the hike therefore consisted of walking east along the road to Vetlejord. Here I easily located the marked trailhead for Vetlejordsstølen and proceeded to follow the marked trail until it ended at two cabins. The trail was overall rather wet and muddy but except for a small herd of cattle that had to be avoided early on, it could be followed without any issues.
From Vetlejordsstølen I headed off-trail to the start of the ridge of Joskarfjellet (or Joskardfjellet as it is named on PB). This was overall straightforward >>>

Høghaugen and Frotveit søyle
- Date:
- 16.07.2024
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:06h
- Distance:
- 7.5km
An afternoon hike to visit Høghaugen , another minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list . As a bonus I would get Frotveit søyle for free as it is located right next to the summit. I took the bus to "Frotveit snuplass" and briefly continued north along the road before crossing the river via an old stone bridge and following the same trail I had used when ascending Lundåsane in 2017 . I soon left this trail though and instead simply headed off-trail towards the highest point, which was reached without any issues. From the summit I could spot the trig marker and thus easily completed the final distance to Frotveit søyle. For the descent I tried a more direct shortcut back to the stone bridge but given the relatively steep terrain I probably did not save much, if any, time. The hike was concluded by taking the same route to Totland as for my hike to Lundåsane >>>
