Cycling: Tellevik - Dalabygda

Date:
11.06.2019
Characteristic:
Bike trip - mixed
Duration:
2:13h
Distance:
33.6km

Alternative version of my usual cycling trip around Salhus, but this time taking a shortcut from Tellevik to Dalabygda in between Veten and Høgstefjellet . Note that the gravel road down to Dalabygda is not really cycling-friendly as it is too steep for normal cycling. But at least by going in this direction it is possible to stay on the bike for the whole trip, which is not really an option if going the opposite way.

A revisit of Ulsetvarden . This time ascending from Myrdal. The trailhead was easy to locate, but the trail itself was overall wet, muddy and slippery. Also passed by Geitanuken before starting the descent.

Hillwalk

Distance:
15.3km

Given the poor weather forecast for the upcoming extended weekend, and with excellent hiking conditions on the Friday, I decided to take Friday off and work during the rainy weekend instead. To take full advantage of the increased number of buses available on a normal weekday, I hopped on a bus to Tysse (or rather bus + bus + ferry + bus) where I arrived around two hours later. My first goals were Løtane and Myrbærstøfjellet , so I continued northeast along the road until locating the marked trailhead for Løtane. The trail itself was marked with blue plastic markers, making it straightforward to reach the summit of Løtane, which provided very nice views. I did not stay long before heading for Myrbærstøfjellet. First along the blue trail, and later on a weaker trail following the ridge. The trail more or less disappeared, >>>
