Aksla and Revurefjellet from Nordtveit

Date:
14.04.2024
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
2:52h
Distance:
8.7km

After our hike to Senafjellet , Endre and I drove the short distance south to Nordtveit where we parked at a designated location next to the road and from there followed the marked trails for Revurefjellet . Our first goal was however Aksla and after first following the tractor road up to Vetlavatnet and from there the marked trail to Svineskaret, we left the trail for Revurefjellet and instead continued northeast on the marked trail to Aksla. The trails were overall quite wet but the trail markers had recently been refreshed and overall we did not have any problems finding our way. The summit of Aksla provided excellent views and we would perhaps have stayed longer if it had not been for the cold wind. After a quick visit of the alternative and slightly lower summit to the south we therefore reconnected with the marked trail and continued southwest to Revurefjellet via Svartavatnet.

Senafjellet from Femanger

Hillwalk

Distance:

Endre picked me up at my place and together we drove south to Bjørnafjorden via Samnanger. Our first goal was Senafjellet where we, thanks to previous trip reports, easily located the small parking area just north of the small bridge at Femanger. After a short walk east we left the gravel road and began our off-trail ascent towards the summit. The ascent started quite steep and muddy, with lots of trees to navigate around/over, but it did not take long before we were following what almost looked like a trail. It was most likely just deer tracks though, which became more obvious the higher up we got. We decided to more or less follow the narrow valley in a straight line all the way to the summit. This worked out fine and did not present any real challenges. As we approached the summit the light rain shower that >>>

Blåurskampen and Kampen

Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:46h
Distance:
6.5km

Short evening hike between the rain showers with the main objective of visiting Kampen , a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . On my way there I also passed by Blåurskampen which could potentially also be added to the list, but with only deer tracks to follow and very limited views from the summit I decided to not add it as its own PB-element. Kampen could be easily ascended from the east, and I probably should have descended that way as well, but instead decided on a shortcut northeast along the ridge. A bit steep towards the end but no real challenges. Not sure if I saved much time compared to the easier route back east though.
