Orretua

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:19t
Distanse:
8,1km

Local Sunday hike across Orretua to look for a trig marker north of the summit that knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) had detected as part of his search for such markers all over Bergen. The marker was located less than 50 meters from the trail, could be reached without any real issues and provided excellent views. After a quick visit to the summit of Orretua, I descended via Ravneberg and also included a revisit of the recently renovated Birkelid . On my last visit this cabin had been in a sorry state, but now it looked almost brand new!

Vardebu, Kolåsfjellet and Steinfjellet

Distanse:
7,8km

A return to Lindås and Kolåsfjellet with the main objective of visiting Vardebu , which had not been there at my last visit of Kolåsfjellet in 2018 . After visiting both Vardebu and Kolåsfjellet I continued northwest to Steinfjellet , which provided excellent views and was well worth the short detour. From Steinfjellet I followed a trail via Hæddena that later turned southwest and headed back towards Vardebu. I however did not reascend to Vardebu/ Vardefjellet , but instead followed an alternative trail marked with orange ribbons back to the parking lot and from there returned to the bus stop at Kolås kryss. This last trail was not of the same overall high quality as the other trails, but it had plenty of trail markers and was easy to follow.

Hopsfjellet and Staupefjellet

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:02t
Distanse:
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 >>>

Short local evening hike in the snow. More tricky than usual given that the batteries of my headlamp died when I was 250 meters from the summit...

Skarpefjellsnakken and Stendarskarfjellet from Kringla

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:36t
Distanse:
21,3km

I started by taking the new double-decker express bus heading for Ålesund and got off at Kringla. Here I was welcomed by the first rays of sunlight hitting the east face of Skarpefjellsnakken (or more correctly Geirsvadklumpen) as I began my walk south/southwest along the road to Kalhovda. All of the previous trip reports had ascended Skarpefjellsnakken via the parking lot at Røyrbotnen , however as I had no need for parking, I thought I would rather try the trail indicated on the map starting from Legene. The trailhead was more or less as indicated on the map, although hidden from the road. I therefore got confused by a gate west of the buildings at Legene, but this trail very quickly came to an end. After a short off-trail search I came across the first white and red plastic trail marker. The trail itself was much less clear, and while >>>
