Nunnåsfjellet and Kråkenipa (almost...)
- Date:
- 28.09.2018
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:58h
- Distance:
- 10.7km
Nunnåsfjellet Weather forecast said rain for the whole weekend, except Friday afternoon. Hence I left work earlier than usual and headed for Lonevåg by bus. From Lonevåg I followed the road east until easily locating the marked trailhead for Nunnåsfjellet at Hatland. The trail was easy to follow, although rather wet until it started climbing. Each fork was also clearly marked, and I was already considering alternative routes for my decent. I arrived at the antenna at Nunnåsfjellet without any problems, and was rewarded by excellent views toward Lonevåg and beyond. Next, I made two attempts at fighting my way through the dense vegetation to the trig marker at Nunnåsfjellet. Before losing my motivation and instead continuing in the direction of the main goal of the day: Kråkenipa . Kråkenipa The first part was easy >>>

Vedafjellet and Såtefjellet
- Date:
- 23.09.2018
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 5:31h
- Distance:
- 18.8km
Setevarden and Vedafjellet Started by taking the bus (or rather, bus, train and then bus again) to Gjerstad and the bus stop called Presttun. From there I followed the road and later trail in the direction of Storavatnet. This included passing through a couple of gates before crossing the river south of Gjerstadfossen. There was an information sign at Gjerstad, and after the initial confusion of which road to pick, it was straightforward to follow the marked trail (marked with yellow paint) all the way to Litlavatnet. I did however still manage to make two unnecessary detours. The first shortly after crossing the bridge, where I missed the trail splitting left (east) and leaving the tractor road. This one was however quickly corrected. The second detour was a slightly more costly, and occurred >>>

Bjørgafjell from Bjørgekrysset
- Date:
- 15.09.2018
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:14h
- Distance:
- 12.0km
Bjørgafjell Started by taking the early morning bus towards Ostereidet and getting off at the bus stop called Bjørgekrysset. From there I walked north along the road toward Vassel and Æse, before following the gravel road up to Bjørgo. I started out in nice weather, but shortly before leaving the paved road it began raining heavily and did not stop until I was almost at the gate indicating the unmarked trailhead for Bjørgafjell . From there on a rather wet tractor road could be followed almost all the way to the summit, changing into a trail toward the end. Shortly before reaching the summit, I came across the first red and blue trail marker. This marked trail continued north/northwest across the summit, but I did not have the time to investigate this option further. Just before arriving at the summit, >>>

Torrfjellet
- Date:
- 09.09.2018
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 2:32h
- Distance:
- 12.7km
Started by making my way up from Bryggen to the upper station of Fløibanen. Here the wind started picking up and the rain did not seem far off. Instead of the planned hike, I therefore decided to rather do a quick detour to a (for me) new small peak called Torrfjellet . There are several signs indicating trails to Torrfjellet, but surprisingly none of these actually went by the summit itself. First, I followed the marked trail from west of Torrfjellet, but soon ended up at Skomakerdiket instead. After walking north along Skomakerdiket I came across the second marked trail for Torrfjellet, but this one only led me back to the trail I had left minutes earlier. Concluding that the marked trails could not be trusted, I simply headed straight for the summit, which was less than 50 meters off at this point anyway.
Gravdalsfjellet from Nipedalen
- Date:
- 08.09.2018
- Characteristic:
- Hillwalk
- Duration:
- 1:20h
- Distance:
- 3.5km
Short evening hike from the final bus stop in Nipedalen. Began with the steep trail, starting directly behind the bus stop, up to Nipetjernet. On a previous hike I had noticed an even steeper trail continuing from the northern tip of the lake heading in the direction of Gravdalsfjellet . The first stretch was even steeper than expected, requiring light climbing, and in hindsight, probably not the best trail after the recent rain shower that had occurred when I was on the bus. But thankfully the trail soon levelled off and, while still slippery, from there it was straightforward to reach the summit of Gravdalsfjellet. The trail did get a bit weak at the end though, but could also be that I made my own shortcut without realizing it. On my ascent I had heard thunder in the far distance, but as it was now slowly >>>
