Hetlebakksåta, Breisteinsåta and Erviknipa

Datum:
18.09.2017
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
2:35h
Entfernung:
6,8km

Started by taking the bus to Myrsæther and walking along Breisteinsvegen, Leikvangvegen and finally Litlaskarstien to arrive at the unmarked trailhead. We then followed a nice trail through the pine forrest up to Hetlebakksåta , and also included a quick visit to Breisteinsåta before continuing down the relatively steep trail towards Erviknipa . From Erviknipa we followed the trail south, ending up at the top of Tuftadalen, from where we followed the paved road down to Gaupåsvegen for the bus back to the city center. Overall, a nice short hike with great views along the way that can highly recommended.

Rognåsen and Orretua

Tourlänge:

Entfernung:
9,2km

Rognåsen Started from Lønborg, crossing Hellen festning to arrive at Øyjordsveien. Right after the crossroads of Øyjordsveien and Søre Øyjorden I took the quite steep trail towards Rognåsen . It was clear that this trail was not heavily used, and it also contained several wet areas towards the end, but it was easy to follow and I quickly connected with one of the main trails crossing Eidsvågsfjellet. I followed this trail south before taking a short detour to get to the highest point of Rognåsen. After taking a couple of picture I returned to the main trail, which I then followed down to the paved road along Langevatnet. Orretua At the northern end of Langevatnet I left the paved road and followed the steep trail up to Orretua . Note that this trail does require a bit of light climbing, but most people should have no >>>

Hananipa Started by taking the train to Trengereid and from there walking up to the trailhead at Skulstadvatnet. This included an almost 400 meters ascent, but the winding road made it into a quite nice and not too tough start. Note that there are a couple of possible shortcuts at the start, so be sure to look out for these. Upon reaching Skulstadvatnet I turned left, and followed the very nice trail towards Hananipa . First alongside Skulstadvatnet and later along the ridge, all the time with excellent views. The quality of the trail was overall very good and I quickly found myself at the summit for spectacular views in all directions. I continued north across the summit to the cairn and some even better views towards Osterøy and Vaksdal. Raudnipa The plan was now to continue to Raudnipa . I therefore started looking for a trail >>>

Short evening hike from Munkebotn, following Fjellveien and then up Skredderdalen, passing by the summit of Sandviksfjellet before ending in Lønborg. It started raining more or less as soon as I arrived in Skredderdalen, but cleared up just as I reached the cairn at Sandviksfjellet.

Åsen

Tourlänge:
2:25h
Entfernung:
9,0km

Started by taking the bus to Gåssandskiftet and walking up Gåssandvegen to locate the start of the trail. This involved walking a bit more than 3 km along a paved road with limited traffic. Not the most interesting, but not too bad either. The exit from the main road was easy to find as it was the only gravel road taking off to the right (east). The gravel road quickly turned south and then came to an end. After crossing several small piles of rocks, I located the start of a trail that seemed to head in the direction of Åsen. Calling it a trail is being very generous though, as I'm pretty sure it is much more heavily used by deer than my humans, and it went as much through the trees/bushes as around them, and also split multiple times. However, it did make it easier to make progress towards >>>

Hånipa Started by taking the bus to "Breistein kai" and the ferry to Valestrand. From there I walked south along the road to Reistad where I located the marked start of the trail to Hånipa . The initial sign was found at the crossroads at the main road, while the second sign was a bit more hidden. Make sure to look to your right (southwest) just after passing the small barn on the right side of the road. While the trail started out a bit hidden in between the vegetation, this quickly improved and the trail turned out very nice. Especially as soon as the fjord started becoming visible through the trees. The trail more or less followed the ridge of the mountain until reaching the trig marker, with excellent views from the summit. From the summit I continued southeast along the trail, which now >>>

Stortårnet

1,1km

On the way back from our hike to Førdesveten ( Førdesveten from Stranda ) we decided to make a quick stop at Stortårnet . Parked at a parking lot next a motor sport area. Thanks to Kjell's trip report we easily found the marked trailhead on the other side of the road, about 100 meters north from the parking lot. Due to the low evening sun we still lost the trail though, hence the GPS track does not exactly follow the marked trail. We reconnected with the trail towards the summit and arrived at the small cairn which also included a visitor register. We were surprised at the large number of registered visits to such a minor summit that is really only accessible by car. But I guess it is used as a frequent trip objective for the locals. Very nice views from the summit. Perhaps not worth a hike on its own, unless you're a local, but great as a bonus on >>>

We started from the parking lot at Stranda skole and followed the marked trail all the way to the summit, choosing the shorter route by going east in the first marked crossroads. Decent trail, where most of the wet areas can be easily crossed with little risk of getting wet. The summit provided excellent views in all directions and was very much worth a visit. The plan was now to head for Randifjellet to the north, and we therefore followed the path in this direction. However, upon reaching the crossroads at the end of the ridge, the trail heading east did not look very inviting, i.e. wet and muddy. We therefore continued south instead, hoping that the alternative path (which takes off to the west after 100 meters or so along the southern trail) towards Randifjellet would be better. This turned out not to >>>

Toppenipa and Toppefjellet

Datum:
30.08.2017
Tourcharakter:
Bergtour
Tourlänge:
1:36h
Entfernung:
5,4km

Started by taking the bus to Støbotn and from there following Toppevegen up to the marked trailhead. I followed the relatively steep trail to the summit of Toppenipa , before continuing towards Toppefjellet . Nice views as always from both summits. Did not meet a single person though, which may explain my next encounter. As I was taking pictures at the summit of Toppefjellet I suddenly heard a large animal running in the direction of Toppenipa, starting from just south of the summit. Initially I could not see the animal, but as it ran northwest it made a short stop in a small clearing, long enough for me to confirm my suspicion that it was a deer and to take a quick picture, before it again disappeared into the trees. After this unexpected excitement, I turned back and followed the same trail back towards Toppenipa. >>>
