Kolafjellet from Døsjeskiftet

Dato:
30.12.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:35t
Distanse:
13,3km

Kolafjellet seemed to be one of those small peaks that are not really worth a hike in itself, so I decided to extend the hike a bit to make the overall trip more enjoyable. Started by taking the bus to Døsjeskiftet and following the paved road up to Bildøyvatnet. From there I followed the marked trail across Vardafjell , ending up at Fjell festning. (The wooden trail markers came in very handy as the trail itself was covered with snow. I therefore more or less ended up walking from one marker to the next.) I continued south along the roads at Fjell festning until reaching the main road. Previous PB trip reports indicated that there was a tractor road further south that could be utilized to make easy progress towards Kolafjellet. I therefore started walking south along the main road in search of this tractor road, >>>

Oksneskletten - the extended version

Dato:
28.12.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:22t
Distanse:
8,9km

After reading the previous trip reports for Oksneskletten on PB, I concluded that a hike to just the summit would most likely not be the most enjoyable trip (especially given the relatively long travel distance from the Bergen city center). I therefore decided to extend the hike with parts of the Askøy på langs trail to hopefully add some more enjoyable sections. I therefore started by taking the bus to Merkesvik and from there following the Askøy på langs trail in the southern direction. The marked trailhead was easy to locate from the main road and the trail made it straightforward to progress towards Oksneset. However, I knew that I had to leave the marked trail to get to the summit of Oksneskletten , but this was easier said than done, as the terrain mainly consisted of trees with thick branches blocking the way or slippery/icy areas with drops >>>

Storevardhaugane, Kjerrgardsåsen and Ospåsen

Dato:
21.12.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:07t
Distanse:
9,4km

Storevardhaugane Started by taking the bus to Fromreidetoppen and continued west along the road (~400 m) until reaching the trailhead. There was no sidewalk, but there was a narrow trail on the right-hand side of the road could be used. I tried to follow the trail through the woods towards Storevardhaugane . But this was easier said than done, as there were multiple trails to choose from, all with different (mainly) unlabeled markers, i.e. the GPS came in handy. Storevardhaugane provided decent views, partly blocked by trees. The view towards Eldsfjellet was particularly nice. After signing the visitor register, and looking for a potentially better view south of the summit (which was not to be found), I retraced my steps to one of the previous crossroads, and headed towards Leirdalen and Berlandsvegen. Kjerrgardsåsen I followed >>>
