Tuvefjellet via Kyrkjefjellet

Tourlänge:
1:40h
Entfernung:
5,2km

After finally arriving at the parking lot and the tractor road indicating the start of the unmarked trail towards Kyrkjefjellet , I quickly left my bike behind and continued on foot. When the tractor road ended, I easily followed the trail all the way to the viewpoint southwest of the summit of Kyrkjefjellet , referred to as "Benk 1" (i.e. "Bench 1"), which provided spectacular views towards the west. The views from the summit itself were more limited. So far the trail had been unmarked, but when continuing east, lots of red trail markers suddenly started appearing, marking a trail that could be followed almost all the way to the viewpoint southwest of the summit of Tuvefjellet , referred to as "Benk 2". The red markers continued east from the bench, but did not pass by the summit itself. It was however straightforward to reach the summit from the trail. The best views were not obtained from south of the >>>

Cabin ruins: Løvstakken

Yet another hike to search for old cabin ruins. This time in what was used to be called Hyttelien, an area south of Løvstakken were there once used to be numerous cabins, none of which are still standing. Once again I could benefit from knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) 's excellent work for locating most of the ruins in the area. There were however two ruins that he had struggled to find: Helgheim and Gyldenprishytten/Akevitten . For the former, I was pretty sure I had found its location via in-depth inspection of old aerial photos, but for the latter I had not been able to find any additional information prior to the hike. After first visiting Knut Sverre’s suggested locations for Gyldenprishytten and Helgheim (now renamed Tuft NV for Liafjellet, Løvstakken and Tuft V for Liafjellet, Løvstakken , I made a quick visit to the summit of the newly added Liafjellet , including a surprisingly steep descent, before heading towards the ruins of Fagerheim .

Cabin ruins: Steinhytten

Entfernung:
4,5km

Short evening hike to visit the ruins of Steinhytten southwest of Ulriken. The cabin was easily located and only required a short detour from the trail. From the ruins I followed a weak trail north, marked with lots of small reflectors and apparently sponsored by NRK. Later I connected with the steep trail to/from Ulriken which I followed southwest down to the road.

Cabin ruins: Landåsfjellet - Part 2

Entfernung:
7,8km

A return to Landåsfjellet to visit some of the ruins I had either skipped on my last visit or where I had been uncertain of the location. First up was Norheim , where I had an approximate location from Bergensernes Fjellverden II (BF II), which combined with the accompanying pictures enabled me to quickly locate a location that seemed to match. Only very weak traces left of the cabin itself. Next, I moved on to Bryterhytten , again making good use of the information in BF II and easily locating the weak traces of the cabin. Limited traces here as well. The cold wind had now started to pick up, so I did not stay long, and even forgot to visit the summit of Orrehaugane , before moving on to Fjellro . Fjellro was one of those location I was sure I had visited on my previous visit, but where I was not sure of the exact location. This time >>>

More visits of old cabin ruins, this time in Nordnesdalen where I could simply follow in the footsteps of knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) . His impressive work for locating the ruins in Nordnesdalen made sure that I could find all of them without any issues. A task that otherwise would have been significantly more difficult given that the map in Bergensernes Fjellverden II clearly had its shortcoming for this particular area.

Another search for old cabins mentioned in Bergensernes Fjellverden II, this time focusing on Landåsfjellet. Yet again I had studied aerial photos and thus knew where most of the cabins were located, or at least had an idea of where they ought to be. But for some there were no traces in the aerial photos at all, neither from 1951 nor 2016, most notably Landåshytten and Fjellro. These have therefore not yet been added as PB-elements. The location of Fjellro is well-defined though: pretty much on the trail on the west side of Nubbevatnet. I guess once again I have to go back armed with an old black and white photo of the cabin like I did for Fjeldglimt (ruin) . This could also be an option for Landåshytten, but here the actual location is more uncertain. One cabin that does show up on the aerial photos from 1951 >>>

Urheim

An evening hike with the goal of visiting the ruins of Urheim . Again I had been studying aerial photos to locate the cabin, but this time the newer better resolution photos from 2016 were used, as the cabin was a ruin even on the oldest photos from 1951 and thus hardly visible. The ruins were therefore easily located, although the terrain from the trail to the ruins was more cumbersome than expected due to lots of low bushes and unstable footing. I think it is safe to say that the location of the cabin very much fits its name. And for once it was straightforward to verify that I was at the correct ruins, as the name of the cabin was chiseled into one of the larger rocks next to the door opening. If only more of these old ruins could be marked this way it would make the job of locating them much easier.
