Rundemanen via Brakhaugen

Date:
20.03.2026
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:07h
Distance:
13.6km

Before heading home from work I decided to try a (for me) new trail to Rundemanen from Tarlebøveien via Brakhaugen. The trail seemed to mainly be used for downhill cycling, although I did not see cyclists, or anyone else for that matter, this evening. Overall, the route can be recommended and provided some relatively unusual views. Even the very familiar antenna at Rundemanen felt different when approached from the southeast.

Store Bjoreinuten, Fagernuten and Vetle Allgarden

Date:
07.03.2026
Characteristic:
Backcountry skiing
Duration:
5:10h
Distance:
17.8km

After a long drive from Bergen, most of it in very dense fog, we could finally leave the poor visibility behind shortly after beginning the ascent from Eidfjord and when parking the car next to the road north of Store Bjoreinuten the sun was shining from an almost cloudless sky. After crossing Bjoreio we easily made our way to the highest point of Store Bjoreinuten, passing by the old northwestern summit marked by a small cairn on the way. Next, we headed more or less directly southwest towards Fagernuten , rounded the summit on the eastern side and made the final ascent from the south. After a short break next the cairn, we descended northeast into the valley between Fagernuten and Store Allgarden before turning north and passing by Drøllstøl on our way to Vetle Allgarden . The ascent to Vetle Allgarden was a mixed bag. It started with a minor struggle >>>

Hanøyna and Ramsøyna

Date:
01.03.2026
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:02h
Distance:
9.3km

Inspired by Kjell 's trip to Ramsøyna almost exactly one year ago, we drove to Hanøyna were we parked at the almost empty parking lot outside Hanøy Skole (it was Sunday after all). From there we followed the main road southwest to Ramsøyna for a visit of Ramsøy Fort and Nordvestre Ramsøytangen. On the way back to the car we made quick stops at Stora Lauvøyna and Hanøyklubben , both accessible via ok trails. Note that the latter is part of Hanøyklubben naturreservat and is off limits for hikers between April 15th and July 31st due to the seabird nesting season.
