Hovda from Våge

Dato:
02.02.2020
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:24t
Distanse:
21,8km

Started by taking the bus to Halhjem and the ferry to Våge, from where I walked east along the road for about 8.5 km before locating the marked trailhead for Hovda . On the opposite side of the road from the trailhead, there was also a small parking lot and World War II memorial monument (the latter indicated as "Minnestøtta" on the later trail signs). For the first 400 meters the trail followed a tractor road, before suddenly turning left and leaving the tractor road behind. If this exit had not been marked I would most likely have skipped it, as it at times looked more like a deer track than a marked trail, and it was also very wet. The trail markers were not very frequent, but did show up when needed, and was generally easy to follow. Just don't expect to be able to walk from one marker >>>

Uggdalsvarden, Singelstadfjellet and Ramnanuten

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:39t
Distanse:
21,1km

Given that my last attempt to visit Singelstadfjellet (in combination with Stølafjellet ) had to be abandoned in order to make sure to make it back in time for the ferry (see Stølafjellet and Ilefjellet from Våge ), I was ready for another attempt when a day of reasonable weather finally came around. As usual, I started by taking the bus to Halhjem and the ferry to Våge, but this time the plan was not to ascend Singelstadfjellet from Dalen, as for my previous hike, but rather from Uggdalsdalen, as my research had uncovered a marked trail from Øyjorda up to Uggdalsvarden : Tursti Øyjoro – Uggdalsvarden , and I assumed it should not be too difficult to continue the short distance to Singelstadfjellet from there. From Våge I therefore started by walking along the roads to Øyjorda, hoping I would easily locate the trailhead. This was however not the case, and to be sure, I knocked on a couple of doors >>>

Gullsteinen roundtrip from Grønnestølsbakken

Dato:
18.01.2020
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:52t
Distanse:
11,8km

A revisit of Gullsteinen with the main objective to also visit Speiderly and Olavsbu . From Olavsbu I continued south along the southern part of Løvstien, before following an unmarked trail to Gullstølen /Speiderly. After crossing over Gullsteinen, I decided not to start the usual climb to Løvstakken , and instead turned south/southwest along a trail taking me more or less back to Olavsbu. I then followed Løvstien north until it came to an abrupt end. There I managed to locate a trail that I assumed would take me down to Øvre Fredlundsveien. However, I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere, as I ended up with a bit of light climbing and also having to jump a fence in order to finally reach the road. I think the correct route is to rather connect with the northern part of Fredlundsvingen when this opportunity first presents itself. The hike >>>
