I started by taking the new double-decker express bus heading for Ålesund and got off at Kringla. Here I was welcomed by the first rays of sunlight hitting the east face of Skarpefjellsnakken (or more correctly Geirsvadklumpen) as I began my walk south/southwest along the road to Kalhovda.

Turns out that it can be easily accessed by a minor detour from the main trail and even provided quite good views. After the visit of Kolhushaugen, I made a revisit of Lyseskarfjellet before returning along the same route. Given that I had some time to spare before the bus back to Bergen, I ended the trip by a walk through Fana kulturpark .
