After taking the bus (and ferry) from Bergen to Odda, I got off at Jøsendal. From there I followed an unmarked trail up to and beyond a cabin. When the trail later forked and one of the two options even crossed the small stream, I thought that perhaps I had come across a trail that could take me all the way to the summit. The weak trail however soon disappeared and I was left with finding my own way. This did not present any real challenges and with a bit of route-finding, mainly to avoid the steepest areas, and partly following various animal tracks, it did not take long before the summit appeared in the distance. In the end, the summit was reached without any issues. If it has not been for the freezing wind I would have stayed longer to enjoy the excellent views from the cairn, but instead >>>

Note: There are currently (2025-2029) travelling restrictions in this area due to the upgrading of Blåfalli Fjellhaugen kraftverk , including the road to Vetrhus being closed. Petter picked me up very early Saturday morning and together we drove to Gjermundshamn for the 08:00-ferry to Årsnes. After getting across the fjord, we continued for around 50 minutes and were finally ready to start our hike from Blådalsvatnet at 09:15. We had both prepared by reading the trip reports from Rune and Geir and ended up following more or less the same route. The first challenge was to get across the gate that sort of made up the southwestern end of the main dam of Blådalsvatnet, with Petter making use of a ladder that happened to be available. Safely across the gate, we continued along a tractor road and crossed the second smaller dam to the southwest, >>>

Another ferry ride with Endre from Tørvikbygd to Jondal, this time with the goal to visit three peaks southeast of Kysnesstranda. Our plan was to drive as far up the gravel road of Kysnesstølsvegen as possible, but this turned out more difficult than expected. The first issue occurred when we tried to pay the toll fee, as this was done the old fashion way, i.e. no Vipps, and the pen needed to fill out the form did not work. However, when talking with one of the locals to try to solve the problem, we learned that we had a bigger problem: most of the road had been washed away by heavy rain. We should be able to drive the short distance around the next bend though, where there would be room to park. On a positive note, we were also told that we could skip the toll fee, which we frankly would have struggled to >>>
