Høghaugen and Frotveit søyle

Turtype:

Turlengde:

Distanse:
7,5km

An afternoon hike to visit Høghaugen , another minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list . As a bonus I would get Frotveit søyle for free as it is located right next to the summit. I took the bus to "Frotveit snuplass" and briefly continued north along the road before crossing the river via an old stone bridge and following the same trail I had used when ascending Lundåsane in 2017 . I soon left this trail though and instead simply headed off-trail towards the highest point, which was reached without any issues. From the summit I could spot the trig marker and thus easily completed the final distance to Frotveit søyle. For the descent I tried a more direct shortcut back to the stone bridge but given the relatively steep terrain I probably did not save much, if any, time. The hike was concluded by taking the same route to Totland as for my hike to Lundåsane >>>

Bergsdalen to Eikedalen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
9:11t
Distanse:
29,2km

For the second Saturday in a row I took the train to Dale and the bus to Bergsdalen, but where I last week walked north to Evanger , this time I was heading south to Eikedalen. I got off the bus at the start of the road to Raunehaugen where I soon located the unmarked trailhead for Kjerringafjellet . The trail quality varied quite a lot and except for small cairns (mainly) towards the end it was unmarked. At several points I therefore had to check the GPS to make sure I was heading the right way. Near the summit there was also a boulder obstacle course that had to be traversed. The summit provided great views and a nice location for a short lunch break. In order to next go to Storliknausen I first returned north towards Såta before carefully navigating my way down to the valley between Kjerringafjellet and Storliknausen. This was overall straightforward, >>>

Ulvvatnet

Dato:

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:22t
Distanse:
4,8km

Yet another trip to a minor peak on the Alle topper i Bergen list , this time to Nord for Ulvvatnet . I got off at the bus stop "Samdal sag" and briefly continued northeast along the main road before turning right and following a tractor road to Ulvvatnet. From there I headed off-trail to the summit. The ascent was very wet from the unexpected rain shower from the start of the hike but otherwise straightforward. Very limited views. I descended via deer tracks that disappeared towards the end. The hike was concluded by walking around Ulvvatnet and then returning to the bus stop. Note that while the lake has a tractor road on the west side, the east side only has a wet trail at best, so don't expect to keep your feet dry.

Bjørndalskamben and Sollifjellet

Distanse:
18,3km

I was lucky to hitch a ride to Kvassdalen and was dropped off next to the unmarked trailhead for Bjørndalen . The first part of the ascent looked very steep but thanks to earlier trip reports, e.g. Arnt 's external trip report , I was pretty sure that it would be ok. As expected, the trail was steep but did not present any real challenges, although it may not be for everyone due to a couple of semi-exposed sections. After the initial steep ascent, the terrain levelled off and I followed a nice trail along the river to Bjørndalen for the first look at Bjørndalskamben . The trail continued south, I however made a detour for better views into Kvassdalen. Upon reconnecting with the trail I did not stay on it for long and instead followed various sheep tracks. There were occasional cairns but no trail as far as I could tell. Closer to the summit, >>>
