Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
1:55h
Distance:
5.9km

Short hike before heading home from work. For the descent I explored a new route via Hellerane . Weak and steepish at the top but otherwise ok. Probably works even better as an ascent route though and should most likely be avoided in the winter when there is snow and ice. Nice viewpoint at Hellerane.

Gulakvila, Kvitebergnova and Flogefjellet from Sollibotn

Date:
26.04.2026
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
8:53h
Distance:
25.4km

After travelling 1.5 hours north on the express boat from Bergen, I got off a Sollibotn and continued on foot towards Gulakvila . I only had to walk less than 100 meters along the paved road before switching to a gravel path that took me up to the marked trailhead and a marked trail that could easily be followed via Løypingsåsen to the cabin. My next goal was Kvitebergnova . In advance I had considered two options: (i) descend to Eivindvik and ascend from Midttun (where I, thanks to Lise Grønbukt 's trip report , had learnt about a marked trail) or (ii) head northwest and ascend via Høgefjellet . When arriving at the unnamed 123 lake just northeast of Gulakvila, I however came across a sign for Kvitbergnova that pointed east. Hoping that this would save me an unnecessary detour, I decided to give it a go, even though this trail was not indicated on the >>>

Sjurstonipa from Breistein via Ytre Arna

Date:
25.04.2026
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
3:05h
Distance:
9.8km

On a nice but windy Saturday I stayed away from the higher peaks and instead tried a new route from Breistein to Ytre Arna before heading via Sjurstonipa and Spåkefjellet on my way to Gaupås. Overall, a nice hike along good trails and great views. Can be recommended.
