When a single day of great weather showed up in the middle of the week, with what seemed like a rather wet weekend to come, I decided to take the day off and easily managed to convince Endre to do the same. He picked me up at my place shortly after seven and together we drove towards Ålvik to have a go at a hike we had been talking about for some time, namely a single hike that included all of the four summits neatly lined up east of Fyksesund. After paying the 60 kr for the toll road we continued up to the parking lot at the end of the winding gravel road, which to our surprise was almost full but thankfully had room for one more car. The great weather we had been hoping for was however late to the party and a low-hanging cloud cover hid most of the views as we left the parking lot. The night before >>>

Stemhaugen and Langaberget

A wet and windy start of the Sunday was used to visit yet another recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Langaberget . But given that I was already in the area I decided to first make a quick ascent of Stemhaugen . The latter was easily reached via a trail from the north/northeast and provided better views than expected (and has now been added as its own PB element). For Langaberget I went for an off-trail ascent from the west. This included one short steepish section but other otherwise did not present any real challenges besides a fence that had to be climbed before getting to the summit plateau. Here there were lots of trails that could be followed to the highest point. I returned the same way and hopped on a bus to the city center that arrived almost at the same time as I got to the bus stop northwest of the summit.

A return to Kvamsfjellet in Lindås given that I was not 100% sure that I had visited the highest point during my first ascent back in 2017 . I largely followed the same route as last time, but skipped Vassberget this time around and instead headed directly for Kvamsfjellet, first along a gravel road and then via a rather wet marked trail. As it turned out, my revisit was not in vain, as the real summit was a bit less than 40 meters east/southeast from what I at my first visit had thought was the summit cairn. The real summit was in the middle of a dense juniper thicket making it tricky to locate the exact highest point. But thankfully the distance was only around seven meters from the trail heading south towards Svarthamrane . Satisfied that I had finally visited the highest point at Kvamsfjellet, I continued south to Svarthamrane and then onwards to Erstadvegen, >>>

A revisit of Hetlebakksåta with the main objective of also ascending a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list : Eika . After following the usual trail from the north along the ridge to the top of Hetlebakksåta, I continued on the trail towards Svartafjellet . Here I had a short break before descending off-trail to Eika, making a short detour on the way to ascend Kletten - a slightly higher hill a bit further north. I then headed west to the southern end of Hetlebakkstemma where I connected with a weak trail that also had a couple of wooden bridges seemingly built for mountain biking. After passing by the houses at the end of the street, the hike was concluded by following the road to Blindheim from where I took the bus home to Lønborg.

Short Sunday hike to Huseberget , a very recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list . I started from the bus stop at Støbotn and after following the paved road up to the trailhead I pretty much followed Kjell 's route to the summit. Excellent views of Hitland and Toppe from near the highest point. As I had not seen much of the weak track that Kjell mentioned in his trip report , I simply made a more direct shortcut north from the summit to reconnect with the trail. Upon getting to the road I increased my speed to a light jog such that I could catch an earlier bus home from Støbotn.

After my solo ascent of Blyfjell , I was picked up by Endre at Gullbrå and we drove the short distance west to Ekse where we found parking next to the suspension bridge across Ekso . The bridge made for easy access to the trail starting on the other side of the river, which we proceeded to follow up Tjørnadalen before later heading off-trail to the summit. The summit was reached without any issues and provided great panoramic views. Before descending along the same route we had a short break celebrating that I had now completed both Vaksdal ≥ 100m pf. and Nordhordland PF >= 100m ! Towards the end of the hike the trail passed by a picturesque small pond and Endre of course could not resist going for a swim. This was apparently not enough however and he also later decided not to use the bridge to get back to the car but rather walk across the river, which he managed with only minor concerns along >>>

For a while I had been looking into how to get to the northeastern end of Eksingedalen via public transportations to ascend the final two peaks I had left in this area, and while doable, it seemed to require a long walk to either Evanger or Myrkdalen/Vinje at the end of the hike. When Endre suggested a joint trip to Eksingedalen I was therefore quick to say yes, and we came up with a plan covering all of the peaks we had left between us. After the roughly two-hour drive from Bergen, Endre dropped me off at the parking lot south of Grøndalsvatnet before returning west for this ascents of Eggane , Blåvasshorgi , Sørvest for Hundeggi and Storhaug , while I continued northeast towards Blyfjell . The off-trail ascent was relatively easy, however my chosen route was not the best and included more ups and downs than necessary. There were also lots of sections of exposed mountainside that would >>>

Larsfonnberget from Oppheim

Distanse:
21,8km

Started by taking the train to Voss and continued by bus to Oppheim. I then followed Oppheimsdalsvegen all the way to Kvanndalen. Walking along the gravel road was a bit boring at the start but soon the views opened up and it was actually quite enjoyable. I had expected there to be snow for the final off-trail ascent to Larsfonnberget but there were only a couple of patches that could not be avoided. The summit itself was completely free of snow and provided excellent views. After a short stop, I returned to the gravel road via a slightly different route including detours to Geitaberget and Høgafjellet before passing by Turtene . The map indicated trails however I did not see much of these and largely found my own way. From Turtene I followed the gravel road back to Oppheim, where I had a look at the discontinued ski lift before getting on the bus to Voss and finally the >>>

Another return to Kalandseidet to visit a recent addition to the Alle topper i Bergen list , namely Nordre Gamletjørnhaugen , which could be easily reached via a marked trail from the north/northeast. After returning the same way I spent some time exploring Eidahaugane before heading to the bus stop.
