Grøet, Flæfjellet and Storafjellet

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:55t
Distanse:
16,5km

Started by taking the bus to Eikedalen (bus stop called Eikedalen Skisenter) and walked along the road up to the start of the ski slopes. From there I followed a steep tractor road west and later north, taking me almost all the way to the summit of Grøet . The final off-road stretch to the summit was straightforward. By now the light breeze had picked up quite a bit, which was very welcome on this warm summer day, with temperatures even this high probably being above 25. I made a short detour north for better views down to Kvitingvatnet, before turning east to Flæfjellet , soon coming across a trail/animal track that I could easily follow all the way to the summit. I did make another short detour south just before reaching the summit though, just to be able to look down into Eikedalen. At Flæfjellet I enjoyed >>>

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
7,9km

I left work a bit early and hopped on a bus to Eikedalen with the goal to visit both Børdalsfjellet and Huldabottsfjellet . The schedule for the planned return bus was on the tight side, and did not get any better when I managed to get off the bus one stop too early. Thankfully this only required an extra 500 meters walk along the main road (could have been much worse…). After leaving the main road, I followed an old gravel road up to what I believe is the start of an old ski lift, clearly not used in a long time. It did however provide the trace of an old tractor road that greatly simplified the start of the ascent. When the road ended shortly after crossing the river via an old bridge (I did not see any traces of the road turning south as indicated on the map), I instead turned left (west) and started making my own way >>>

Fotasperrnuten

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:30t
Distanse:
14,3km

When the initial plan to drive to Øystese for a visit to Skrott did not work out, we changed plans and instead hopped on a bus to Steinskvanndalen (bus stop called Kvernavollen) for an ascent of Fotasperrnuten . The walk along the gravel road up to the beautiful Steinskvanndalsvatnet was quickly completed and we then started searching for the marked trailhead. We walked a bit too far though and ended up making our own way up the field. We soon came across the marked trail, which from there on, with some minor exceptions when getting close to the summit, was easy to follow. Note that there were some steep areas when heading up Fotasperrdalen, or more specifically a steep drop on the right-hand side of the trail, so this particular part of the trail may not be to everyone's liking. But as soon as this stretch was >>>

Totlandsfjellet

Dato:
09.07.2019
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:20t
Distanse:
6,3km

I managed to convince two colleagues to go hiking and we decided on Totlandsfjellet in Samnanger. After reading up on previous PB-reports our plan was to drive all the way to the small parking lot next to Svensdalstjørna and start our hike from there. We were therefore rather surprised when coming across a locked gate immediately after turning left (west) into Svensdalen from Høysetetjørna. The gate looked fairly new, so probably it had not been there to stop earlier visitors to Totlandsfjellet? Luckily it was easy to find alternative parking by the main road at Høysetetjørna, and it was only about 800 meters along a gravel road from there to the planned start of the hike anyway. The gravel road was quickly covered and we shortly arrived at the northwestern end of Svensdalstjørna. After crossing the small stream we located the weak unmarked trail, heading >>>
