Matskårhaugane from Røynesnes

Dato:
22.12.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:18t
Distanse:
4,7km

The first day of my extended Christmas holiday was spent travelling to Etne to ascend Matskårhaugane . Getting there from Bergen took around five hours by bus (and ferry), including an hour-long stop in Aksdal ( which I used to visit Alvdalsnuten ). Upon finally arriving in Etne, I got off at the bus stop Madsgård (which I assume is the same as Matskår on the map). While it most likely would have been fine to follow the tractor roads directly west to the summit, similar to what Petter and Kjell had recently done , I did not take the chance of potentially being stopped by a local farmer. Instead I followed a route similar to PinusSylvestris and ascended from Røynesnes to the north and hoped that I would not come across any of the large cattle shown in his trip report . This largely off-trail ascent was relatively straightforward, although the half-frozen ground with lots of traces of the above-mentioned cattle >>>

Alvanuten

Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
3,6km

On my way to ascend Matskårhaugane I had an hour at Aksdal between arriving with the express bus from Bergen and continuing with the local bus to Etne. Instead of waiting at the bus stop, or hanging out at Aksdal Senter, I decided on a quick visit of Alvanuten and its dagsturhytte . There was an easy-to-follow trail starting from the end of Alvanutvegen that took me all the way to the cabin with the summit right next to it. After enjoying the excellent views, I returned the same way and made it to the bus terminal with around ten minutes to spare.

A revisit of Nordgardsfjellet via a (for me) new trail from Kistebakkane. From the summit I followed the trail north towards Salhus with a quick stop at Rundhaugen . Overall easy to follow trails, although quite wet, and with nice views along the way.

Langelihøgdi from Nedre Folkedal

Dato:
07.12.2025
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:57t
Distanse:
12,7km

Sunday hike with the main objective of ascending Langelihøgdi , a minor summit on the Opptur Hordaland list . I started by taking the train to Voss and the bus to Folkedal, or more specifically Nedre Folkedal. Here I got off the bus and continued on foot along the paved road to Øvre Folkedal where a gravel-covered toll road led me up towards Helgastøl . Just south of Helgastøl I left the now very icy gravel road and did my best to follow the partially hidden marked trail via Helgastøl until getting just east of Langelihøgdi. The summit could then easily be reached via a short off-trail detour. After a short break to enjoy the excellent views to the surrounding higher peaks, I returned the same way to Helgastøl. Initially I had considered going via Kalvbakkehøgdi and Håli during the descent, but in the end I decided to not take any chances that could result in missing >>>
