Preikestolen and Kvamsfjellet

Dato:
19.05.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:12t
Distanse:
10,5km

We started from the parking lot at Osvatnet and followed the standard trail up to Kupene. Here we left the main trail and followed the sign for Tyssesætra. However we soon lost the trail and had to search a bit to relocate it, but from there on it was relatively easy to follow. (Seems like the trick may be to turn right when the trail splits when leaving the wet area behind, but as we ended up losing the trail at more or less in the same location on the descent, the trail may simply be weak in this particular area.) The one cabin at Tyssesætra soon appeared and from there we followed the sign west to Preikestolen . First a long a nice trail, but it more or less disappeared before reaching the summit. At that point it was not really needed anyway. Preikestolen provided nice views, but we did not stay long before continuing towards >>>

Rollandsoksen (Hesthaugen to Lønborg)

Dato:
18.05.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:57t
Distanse:
8,1km

A revisit of Rollandsoksen . This time with a more direct route from the bus stop at Hesthaugen, first along roads and later following a nice trail all the way to the summit. From the summit I returned north, before following another trail east until connecting with "Den Trondhjemske Postvei" coming down from Kolåsen, which I then followed until reaching Eidsvåg. Here I wanted to attempt a new shortcut up to Hellemyrstien from Eidsvåglien, where a trail was indicated on the map. The trailhead was easy to locate, starting with a short staircase northeast of Eidsvåglien 2, but the trail split numerous times with no clear way of knowing which was the best option. In the end I did connect with Hellemyrstien though, and from there concluded my hike by walking home to Lønborg.

Kongsfjellet via boat from Bergen

Dato:
12.05.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:28t
Distanse:
6,3km

The trip started by taking the boat from Strandkaiterminalen in Bergen to Bekkjarvik, which took around one hour and provided excellent views along the way. Shortly after disembarking, we came across a hiking sign for "Kongsen", which we assumed was short for Kongsfjellet . Did not see any additional signs though, except for a sign for Kongskleiva (which we did not follow, but which we will come back to later), but soon arrived at the football field north of Kongsfjellet where we easily located the trailhead, marked with the familiar blue "N" for "Nordsjøløypa". From there on it was straightforward to follow the trail all the way to Kongsfjellet, enjoying the rapidly improving views. The summit itself provided excellent views in all directions. We still had plenty of time >>>

Dyrskarfjellet and Rundesteinen

Dato:
11.05.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:12t
Distanse:
9,8km

Started by taking the bus to Store-Aurdal (bus stop called "Urdal (Lindås)") and from there followed the gravel road north, making sure to avoid the demolition site of Husafjellet and instead continued on the forest road slightly further to the east. I soon left Husafjellet behind and started looking for the tractor road east of Dyrskarfjellet that should simplify my ascent. I was a bit too eager though, ending up leaving the road too early, but shortly connected with the actual tractor road. The tractor road was easy to follow, but clearly not very heavily used, and at times looked more like a trail than a road. From where the road/trail finally came to an end, it was however pretty straightforward to proceed to the summit. Although there were a couple of steep sections that had to be avoided. The summit >>>

Hemningsfjellet from Eikefet

Dato:
04.05.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:25t
Distanse:
11,5km

Took the bus to Eikefet and from there followed the road north to Eikemo, where the trailhead was easily located just before the road was about to cross Eikefetelva for a second time. The trail was unmarked but easy to follow and more or less followed the river all the way up to Eikemosætra via Sætre . The bridge used to cross the river, named Sæterbrua , was also of good quality. Upon arriving at Eikemosætra, I decided to continue north to Båtevatnet, on the off chance that I'd come across an unknown trail to Hemningsfjellet . But even the trail to Båtevatnet soon turned very weak, and I could not see any trails going east. Heading straight for the summit from Båtevatnet without a trail was not really an option either, as the terrain seemed too steep. I therefore doubled back, getting almost to Eikemosætra, before starting my final >>>
