Another hike to visit cabins mentioned in Bergensernes Fjellverden II (BF II), this time at Totland. We parked at Totland parkeringsplass and after figuring out how to pay for the parking, made quick visits to Hardyhytten, Linken and Fanahytten. The former now only a ruin, while the latter two seemed to be in good condition. Døvehytten/Birkehaug was also located (Totlandsvegen 556), which looked like it had been turned into a permanent residence.

Next on the list was Maihaugen, which I had failed to even notice on my previous trips to the area. Note that of the road indicated on the map heading just north of Maihaugen, there are only weak traces, much like the cabin itself it had clearly also seen better days.

From Maihaugen we shortly headed north along the gravel road, before leaving the road and following a rather wet trail up to Laksevåg Røde Kors Hjelpekorps' hytte. Another cabin that had seen better days, but which at least was still standing.

We descended via the wet valley east of Totlandsfjellet, before taking an off-trail shortcut to reach Speiderhytten and Bergens Skilags hytte. The latter no longer belonging to Bergens Skilag though, but is rather privately owned. I still decided to keep the name for the new PB-element, if only to indicate the cabin's history.

The final visit was to the ruins of Mindehytten, which only required a minor detour from the trail. Yet another cabin that had clearly been abandoned a long time ago. The hike was concluded by walking along the road back to the car.

    Research?

    Begynner snart å lure på om du planlegger å skrive en bok om historien bak Bergens hytter og gårder.

      Tja, kanskje ikke en dum ide. Boken vi bruker som utgangspunkt er jo fra 1988. Så man kan vel trygt si at informasjonen er heller utdatert. ;)
