A return to Fedje with the main goal of visiting Aurihophytta , which I had not had time for during my first trip to the island back in 2021 . Decided not to repeat the very long cycling trip this time around though and instead arrived by car, which we left at Sævrøy before getting on the ferry. Minor swells but overall a smooth journey. At Fedje, we followed the roads southwest to the marked trailhead for Aurihophytta. Here we continued on a very nice gravel-covered trail. But just as we started discussing whether it perhaps would be this easy all the way to the cabin, the marked route left the gravel and instead led us along a relatively wet trail. We passed via Såta and continued southeast to Aurihophytta. Here we had a short lunch break before heading south to the paved road close to Hellisøy fyr . All that remained was then walking along the road back to >>>

Ever since Petter and I ran out of time during our visit of Halsnøy and Husnes last June, I had had plans to return to also visit Vikefjell , but this time via the express boat from Bergen. The boat took around two hours and after disembarking I followed the roads east towards the southern trailhead for Vikefjell. No sidewalks but thankfully not a lot of traffic. The marked trailhead was easily located and I proceeded to follow an initially rather steep trail up to Søre Vikefjell where I took a short break to enjoy the excellent views. From there it was only a short distance to the highest point at Vikefjell, referred to as Nordre Vikefjell. Ok views here as well but more limited than Søre Vikefjell. I continued east along the marked trail until connecting with the gravel road in Teigadalen. Here I turned south and headed down to the main road before turning west and returning >>>

A return to Stord for a visit of Bjørnahifjellet , a minor summit on the Opptur Hordaland list . I started by taking the express bus from Bergen to Leirvik where I switched to a local bus to Litlabø. After a brief exploration of some of the buildings related to the mining museum I continued on a marked route via Storsynken before leaving the mines behind and following the signs for Bjødnahiet . Four crossings of the stream/river in Storedalen were required before getting to the marked trailhead, where only the first one was via a bridge. But thankfully the water was not very deep and there were convenient steeping stones that made it possible to cross without getting wet. More of a challenge was the snow covering the gravel road, as it was of the type that almost carried my weight but only for a second before giving way, thus resulting in a slower and tougher start >>>

The final peak on me and Endre 's seven mountain hike in Masfjorden was going to be Grååsen but the main question was now whether we could complete the ascent and still get to the ferry in time? When we returned to the car after the ascent of Klettane , we decided to give Grååsen a go as well. The good thing was that it was on the way to the ferry at Duesund. We drove south and found parking at the start of a tractor road that would take us almost all the way to the summit. As we began the hike it was getting dark and the headlamp was turned on as we approached the summit. The final ascent from the tractor road to the summit required a tiny bit of light scrambling but this can most likely easily be avoided if visiting in the daylight and not being short on time to catch a ferry. We returned along more or less the >>>

After our visit of Låveidrusta , Endre and I drove the short distance north to Pehola to ascend Klettane . Here we parked at the start of the tractor road and proceeded to follow it north. Encouraged by footprints in the snow we hoped that these would lead us to the summit, however when the footprints descended in the direction of Markhusdalsvatnet, we left them and instead headed off-trail towards the summit. Not the nicest terrain to travers but by avoiding the steepest areas we arrived at the summit without any real issues. (There is supposed to be a marked trail though, so proably worth taking the time to search for this one.) Given that we still had one peak left to visit, and a ferry to catch at Duesund, we quickly returned the same way and drove south to Grååsen .

After the visit of Hesthovden it was time for Låveidrusta , where there should be a marked trail all the way to the summit. We parked at the start of a sideroad to the north and briefly followed the sideroad before heading south and ascending towards the summit. There were some trail markers but we quickly lost these and simply found our own way to the highest point and did not come across any real challenges. Limited views from the summit and we quickly returned along the same route before continuing to Klettane .

Upon arriving at the start of the tractor road where we planned to start our hike to Hesthovden , after visiting Brunane , we once again struggled to find proper parking. After a brief discussion about whether the car was blocking traffic or not, Endre concluded that given that there were two ways of driving from the main road to the tractor road we could block one of them without it being an issue. I was less certain. We followed the tractor road northwest and passed through a gate before the road started winding its way upwards. When the tractor road came to an end we headed off-trail towards the summit and reached it without any real challenges. After visiting both the trig marker and an alternative summit to the northwest, we returned along the same route. When we were almost back at the car, we met a local farmer >>>
