Flaktveit to Selvik via Nukane

Dato:
01.02.2026
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:07t
Distanse:
6,3km

A return to Flaktveit to try an alternative route to Nukane followed by a (for me) new descent to Selvik. All in all a nice short hike with unmarked but still overall easy to follow trails. The only challenge being the occasional ice that could thankfully easily be avoided. See also my earlier hike to Storsåta .

After an extended period of cold weather I decided to use the Saturday to visit the ruins of the cabin Dovre , located on a small island in Nipetjørna. Given that I would basically be passing by Endre 's apartment on way, I invited him to come along. As expected, there was a thick white ice covering the lake and we could therefore easily walk across to the island. Of the cabin there were only limited traces after it apparently burned down in 1977. With the main objective out of the way we continued via Gravdalsfjellet , Damsgårdsfjellet and Olsokfjellet before returning to Vestlundveien. Just as we were about to part ways, I noticed the small hill St. Hanshaugen which looked like it ought to be included on the Alle topper i Bergen list and at the summit we even found a small trig bolt. Takk for turen, Endre!

Stovegolvet from Grov

Dato:
24.01.2026
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:02t
Distanse:
17,8km

Warning: This hike includes a steep ascent that can potentially be dangerous under certain winter conditions. Read the report carefully. A return to Stord to ascend Stovegolvet and visit the DNT cabin with the same name . After taking the bus (and ferry) to Stord I had planned to get off at Grov, however the bus driver failed to notice that I had pressed the stop button and I ended up with an extra kilometer warm up along Grovavegen before arriving at my intended starting point. I began by following the same route southwest to Lundsetervegen as for my trip to Steingilshøgda, Klovfjellet and Budalsfjellet and continued along the paved road to the large parking lot at Lundseter where I easily located the marked trailhead. From the trailhead I followed the marked trail northwest before turning east and beginning the steep ascent towards the summit. It quickly became apparent that this part of the ascent would be much more challenging >>>

Hovåsene from Fortunbakkane

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
4,3km

Short hike on a gray and foggy Sunday with the objective of visiting Hovåsen and Hovåsen Sør , two recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . I used a similar route as for last year’s visit of Nordre Gamletjørnhaugen , although in the opposite order. After following the marked trail via Nordre Gamletjørnhaugen , I left it shortly after Lillianbrekko and headed off-trail via various deer tracks to the summits of Hovåsen Sør and Hovåsen. At Hovåsen Sør there was a trig bolt and a view down to Kismul Skyte- og friluftssenter (closed on Sundays, except for special events, according to their web page). There may also be ok views from Hovåsen but these were all hidden by the fog. The easiest choice would now probably have been to return to the trail but given the short distance to the road to the north, I decided to head directly in that direction. This did not present any real challenges but was also the least enjoyable part >>>

Endre picked me up at my place shortly after seven and together we drove the around 2.5 hours to Vikafjellet. The drive however took slightly longer than usual given that the ventilation system in Endre's car did not work properly and we therefore had to make the occasional stop to manually remove excess moisture from the inside of the windshield. To make things worse, starting from Evanger the man-made fog inside the car was matched by an increasingly dense natural fog outside. Together with snow-covered roads this was not the best combination, but by taking it slow we managed to get to the parking lot at Fosse without any real issues. As if planned, the fog magically disappeared just minutes before we arrived at the parking lot and we could see the first pinkish rays of sunlight hitting the surrounding mountain tops. >>>
