Langhaugen to Lønborg

Date:
28.02.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:08h
Distance:
14.4km

Started by taking the bus to Langhaugen, and after a quick visit of the small hill with the same name , I simply walked home to Lønborg via Søre and Nordre Midtfjellet . When descending from Nordre Midtfjellet I came across a (for me) new trail that I could follow north until it connected with the gravel road of "lysløypen". I did not follow the gravel road for long though, as I soon came across yet another new trail that turned out to be a shortcut down Midtre Stemmedalen. Interesting that it is still possible to find new trails in otherwise very familiar hiking terrain! :)

Baståsen from Osterfjordvegen (E39)

Date:
21.02.2021
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
2:45h
Distance:
6.5km

After our short walk along Brekkeløypa , we drove to the small parking lot south/southeast of Baståsen for the start of a marked trail to Baståsen . The trailhead was thus easily located, but the start of the hike was still a bit challenging as both the parking lot and the first part of the trail was covered by ice. Thankfully the ice soon disappeared, and we would only see limited traces of it for the rest of the hike. The marked trail was easy to follow and included lots of signs. Some of which came in very handy when the trail forked inside the dense woodland, which it did on multiple occasions as we made our way north/northwest. Another characteristic feature was the several small hills that had to be traversed, in which the first one, Nonkletten , even included a relatively steep descent with ropes added for extra safety. After also passing over Geitarinden , we arrived at the >>>

On our way to Baståsen , we made a quick stop at Knarvik for a short walk along Brekkeløypa . Brekkeløypa consists of a gravel road around a small lake/wet area called Lonena, and can be recommended if in the area and not having time for a longer trip. Parking can be found outside Nordhordlandshallen.
