Brunane from Frøyset kyrkje

The third peak on our seven mountain hike in Masfjorden was Brunane . After the visit of Bufjellet , Endre and I therefore drove the short distance to Frøyset where we found parking close to the church. Here we talked to one of the locals and was given excellent advice on how to locate the trailhead which was only a couple of hundred meters to the northeast. The trailhead was easily located and we began the initial steep ascent to Fløya . Fløya provided a great overview of Frøyset and the panoramic views were much better than expected from such a modest altitude. After a nice chat with another local outside a small wooden shelter, and signing the visitor register, we continued along the trail to Brunane. The terrain was now much less steep and the summit was reached without any issues. Limited views due to lots of trees >>>

Bufjellet from Torsvika

After our visit of Duesundfjellet , we drove the short distance to Torsvika to start our ascent of Bufjellet . Finding a place to park was more difficult than we had hoped though. In the end we decided to drive up to Sleirsvegen 148 and park at the start of the tractor road. We looked around for people to check if this was ok but did not find anybody and concluded that the snow-covered tractor road would most like not be used this Saturday. We started by following the tractor road north before turning southeast and heading off-trail for the ridge we assumed could be followed to the summit (partly based on previous trip reports). However, we soon happened upon a marked trail that seemed to lead more directly towards the summit and decided to follow it instead. But when this trail started heading back towards the tractor >>>

Initially, Endre and I were going skiing this weekend, but due to worsening weather forecasts we decided to abandon those plans and instead leave the skis at home and head to the northwestern part of Masfjorden. This was an area that neither of us had visited before and hence there should be lots of relatively easy peaks to ascend. I had made a rough plan the evening before that included up to seven peaks, depending on how long each of them would take. We started by driving to Masfjordnes where we arrived almost half an hour before the ferry to Duesund. After a short drive on the other side of the fjord, we parked next to Duesund Brannstasjon and easily located the stone steps marking the start of the trail to Duesundfjellet . The trail was overall easy to follow, and there was even the occasional trail marker, >>>

Hylkje to Haukås via Stuhaugen and Jonsterhaug søyle

Entfernung:

I had come across a potential new candidate for the Søyler (fastmerker) i Bergen list at Hylkjeneset and decided to have a closer look as the information at bergenskart.no did not reveal the type of trig marker. From the bus stop at Hylkje I followed the roads to Hylkjeneset and the marked trailhead for Geitskaret. The marked trail provided excellent views across Sørfjorden to Osterøy but did not pass by the highest point at the small hill Stuhaugen where the trig marker was supposed to be (now added as its own PB-element). However, just as I was about to leave the trail and head the final short off-trail distance to the summit I did came across a trig marker, but not of the kind I had expected and not at the correct location. This one was of the taller type held up by metal wires and was located at the lower hill less than 100 meters southeast >>>

Bjørnåsen and Fuglen

Tourlänge:

Entfernung:
7,5km

In the report from my visit of Bjørnåsen in 2021 I had commented that the trail seemed to continue towards a slightly lower hill to the north called Fuglen and that perhaps this had to be explored one day. With Fuglen recently having been added as its own PB-element, that day had arrived. This time I arrived on foot via the cycling and walking path from the bus stop at Kalandseidet. I first followed the same trail as last time to Bjørnåsen and from there continued north in the direction of Fuglen. While there was a weak trail, and even some trail markers, I quickly lost the trail and was left finding my own way. The terrain however did not present any challenges and the highest point of Fuglen was easily reached. As expected, Fuglen provided the same limited views as Bjørnåsen and I did not stay long before descending off-trail to reconnect with the >>>

Alvehaugen and Høyde ved Janaflaten

Entfernung:
2,2km

On a gray Sunday where the rain showers did their best to melt the recent snow and make all surfaces slippery, I once again turned to the Alle topper i Bergen list and decided on two minor hills just east of Sotrabroen. First up was Alvehaugen which could be spotted immediately after getting off the bus. Getting to the summit however required a bit more work but could be fairly easily done via a short off-trail ascent from the north. I descended the same way and headed the short distance south to Høyde ved Janaflaten . Here the ascent was easier than expected as most of the trees shown covering the summit in previous trip reports had been removed and it was now simply a matter of walking up to the highest point. While the removal of the trees had resulted in better views, it was still a rather uninteresting small hill. The short hike was then concluded >>>

Hordnesskogen from Stend to Lagunen

Tourlänge:
2:04h
Entfernung:
8,7km

I started by taking the bus to Stend and walking southwest along the road to Hordnes. After a quick visit of Hordnes søyle I followed the gravel road north to Skinfloren in an increasingly heavy snow shower. From there I continued north to Storåsen which could easily be ascended via a minor detour from the roads/trails (now added as its own PB-element), however the summit did not provide much with regards to views. After descending north from Storåsen I started my ascent to Sauhaugen , a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . At first there was a narrow trail/deer track to follow but as I got closer to the summit the trail got weaker and later disappeared altogether. By then I was less than 100 meters from the summit anyway and could easily complete the remaining distance. Also this summit had limited views and I quickly started my descent. Reconnecting >>>

Orresiktet, Langaneset and Peneset

2:00h
Entfernung:
5,4km

On a wet and gray Saturday I settled on a short hike with the main objective of visiting yet another minor hill on the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Vest for Orresiktet . After taking the bus to Vadmyra I walked the short distance west to Hetlevikåsen where I easily located an unmarked trail down to Langaneset. Before ascending off-trail to Vest for Orresiktet I made the short detour to the real Orresiktet, a slightly lower hill to the east. Both provided limited views across different parts of Storavatnet but were not the most interesting locations. In order to extend an otherwise very short hike, I decided to also explore Langaneset, starting with a brief off-trail visit of Revekulten (62 m, PF of around 14). I then returned to the many unmarked trails at Langaneset and continued to its northmost point (along rather weak trails towards >>>
