Bjørnåsen and Fuglen
In the report from my visit of Bjørnåsen in 2021 I had commented that the trail seemed to continue towards a slightly lower hill to the north called Fuglen and that perhaps this had to be explored one day. With Fuglen recently having been added as its own PB-element, that day had arrived. This time I arrived on foot via the cycling and walking path from the bus stop at Kalandseidet.
I first followed the same trail as last time to Bjørnåsen and from there continued north in the direction of Fuglen. While there was a weak trail, and even some trail markers, I quickly lost the trail and was left finding my own way. The terrain however did not present any challenges and the highest point of Fuglen was easily reached.
As expected, Fuglen provided the same limited views as Bjørnåsen and I did not stay long before descending off-trail to reconnect with the roads, but first making a minor detour to visit another small hill called Hovda just to the north (in case it too should at some point be added as its own PB-element). I returned to Kalandseidet via the normal road, making it to the bus stop with four minutes to spare.
