Bergsdalen to Eikedalen

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

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.

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, >>>

Bergsdalen to Evanger via Hamlagrøhornet

Dato:

Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
18,4km

I started by taking the train to Dale and from there the bus up to Bergsdalen where I got off at the start of the gravel road to Alexander Grieghytten . After a quick look at the cabin I continued on a marked trail north towards Evanger. At the top of the pass I however turned right, left the marked trail, and headed off-trail to the summit of Hamlagrøhornet . Here I visited all of the potential highest points (the one just south of the largest cairn seems to be the real summit) before continuing northeast via Såta to Løva . Løva stood out from the rest of the terrain but could still be easily ascended. The unusual rock formations making up the ridge seemed to be very good cairn building material, as there were at least four cairns at or near the summit. After a short lunch break, I descended the same way before heading north and >>>
