Fureberget at Flatøy

Date:
23.03.2019
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
0:43h
Distance:
3.2km

Decided to split up the bus ride to Melshovden with a short visit to Fureberget at Flatøy. The plan was to get off the bus before crossing the bridge to Knarvik, but for some reason the bus driver ignored my signal and I thus had to re-cross the bridge to get to the trailhead for Fureberget. The trail indicated on the map seemed to be most heavily used by off-road vehicles, probably used to perform maintenance on the antenna at the summit, resulting in rather wet tracks that could be followed all the way to the summit. As expected, the summit did not provide the best of views, and I did not stay long before returning to Knarvik and the next part of the bus ride to Melshovden. Note that the trail, or rather gravel road, toward Skjeljevikane looked much better, so perhaps a route to explore at a different occasion.

Håhaugen from Andås E39

Date:
16.03.2019
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:21h
Distance:
3.6km

Started by taking the bus (or more correctly buses, as four in total was required) to the crossroads west of Eikefettunnelen (bus stop called “Andås E39”). From there I walked back along the main road towards the known trailhead for Håhaugen . Thankfully there was plenty of space on the outside of the guard rails, so I was clearly separated from the high-speed traffic. The trailhead was easily located, but as expected the trail quickly disappeared. But it was still straightforward to make progress up the small valley north of the summit. At the top of the valley I located what seemed like the easiest place to ascend, and while relatively steep and requiring light climbing, it did not provide any real difficulty, except for one spot where the snow was extra slippery. From there on it was however easy >>>
