Skulehaugen and Orrtuvatnet

Date:
31.12.2022
Characteristic:
Hike
Duration:
0:41h
Distance:
2.9km

When the final day of 2022 turned out to be a rather gray one, I opted for a short hike to visit yet another small hill recently added to the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Skulehaugen . Skulehaugen was easily accessible from southeast without getting too close to the nearest house just to the north of the summit. Afterwards, the hike was concluded by a walk around Orrtuvatnet before returning to Fyllingsdalen terminal.

Hopsfjellet and Staupefjellet

Date:
23.12.2022
Characteristic:
Hillwalk
Duration:
2:02h
Distance:
5.5km

The first day of my extended Christmas holiday was spent travelling to Sveio to ascend Hopsfjellet and Staupefjellet . This included first taking the express bus (and ferry) to Heiane. Here I left the express bus and after waiting around 20 minutes continued south on a local bus. This allowed me to get off at a stop closer to the trailhead and thus greatly reduce the walking distance along the main road (especially as there is no sidewalk). Initially, I had planned to get off at the stop called Hope, but at the last minute figured out that Flåtene would be even closer. The result was a less than 250 meters walk along the main road before reaching the marked trailhead and the small parking lot . As expected, there was no sidewalk, but thankfully there was plenty of space next to the road and for the final half there was even a railing >>>
