Lyngbø to Lauvåsen

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:25t
Distanse:
5,9km

My initial plan for the day had to be changed due to a missed connecting bus at Lyngbø. I decided to instead try a new route up to Lyngbønipa and across Eikelifjellet , and walked up to the start of Nipedalen to locate the start of the trail up the valley in between Lyngbønipa and Gravdalsfjellet (in between Nipedalen 74 and 76). The trailhead was unmarked, but a sign with "Tursti" showed up later. The trail itself was today hidden under the snow, but I was lucky enough to have 2-3 sets of footprints to follow. Although this ascent towards Lyngbønipa is not as steep as the one starting from the top of Nipedalen, it was still relatively hard, especially due to the deep snow, but the terrain did flatten out well before reaching Nipetjørnet. No footprints towards the summit of Lyngbønipa, so for this stretch I had to make >>>

Storåsen in Os

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:40t
Distanse:
5,5km

Started by taking the bus to Tveit and from there following the paved road east to Lia, where I turned north and quickly found a sign indicating the newly marked trail to Rød, a trail that was also supposed to pass very close by today's goal: Storåsen . The initial gravel road turned into a tractor road as soon as I passed the last houses, and to my surprise the road then started to head downwards until finally turning north before coming to an end. Here the real trail started, which was also indicated by a small sign. Today the trail was partly hidden under the snow, and it split a couple of times, but overall it was fairly easy to follow. The trail went over the smaller hill to the south of Storåsen before starting the final ascent towards the summit. As far as I could see, the marked trail did not >>>

Husfjellet and Hjortåsen

Turlengde:

Distanse:
15,2km

Husfjellet Started by taking the bus to Sørstrøno (bus stop called Sørstrøno sør) and from there followed the very nice gravel road in the direction of Husfjellet . The plan was to ascend along the ridge from the east. I did not assume that there would be any trails, so I was rather surprised when noticing a plastic trail marker in the trees to my right, clearly noticeable from the road (you have to be looking for it though). The trail itself was less clear, and I quickly lost it, before finding it again after a short steep ascent. The marked trail however did not seem to head towards the summit, but rather continue south of the ridge, probably to reconnect with the gravel road that comes down on the west side of Husfjellet. After following it for a while, I therefore finally left the trail and headed >>>

Stora Stokkfjellet and Fjærhovda

Distanse:
3,8km

Short hike at Drange to visit two small peaks Stora Stokkfjellet and Fjærhovda , both on the Os ≥ 50m pf. list . Stora Stokkfjellet Started by taking the bus to Drange (bus stop called "Drange handel") and from there followed the directions from Kjell's recent visit to Stora Stokkfjellet , which also was the first registered visit on PB. This made it straightforward to locate the trailhead, and I shortly arrived at the summit. Although I was a bit uncertain which of the 3-4 potential summits that were the highest point, hence I visited all of them. All of the potential summits provided nice views, but the best views were obtained from the small cabin located in the westernmost point of the plateau, with excellent views towards both Krokeide and west towards the sea. From the summit I followed more or less the same trails back down to the main road. Fjærhovda The next goal >>>

Nattlandsfjellet, Ramsdalsstrupen and Orrehaugane

Distanse:
8,0km

Lots of rain and wind for the first part of the day, so I ended up with a short hike in the afternoon to cover a small recently added summit at Nattlandsfjellet called Ramsdalsstrupen . The plan was to continue up the gravel road and ascend Orrehaugane from the east, but this was abandoned as the road was packed with ice, and the trail up Sveane was used instead. The shortcut down to Landåslien ended up being more challenging than usual as the steep decline was today a mix of snow, ice and running water...

Tverråsen from Hatvikvegen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:10t
Distanse:
8,4km

Started by taking the bus to Hatvik (bus stop called Holo) and walked up the paved road in the direction of Tverråsen . The plan had been to follow the road until reaching the gravel road, but after about 1 km I came across a couple of hiking signs indicating a shortcut (which I could also find on the map). It started out as a tractor road, but more or less disappeared before connecting with the gravel road. I then followed the gravel road until reaching the crossroads indicated on the map. The crossroads was a bit hidden, partly due to a small excavator, but it is located more or less where the gravel roads starts descending. After locating the tractor road behind the excavator, I continued northeast until reaching a second crossroads where I turned north (left) and later southwest towards the highest >>>

Randifjellet Started by taking the bus to Førde (bus stop Førdespollen) and walked up the paved road to the marked trailhead for Førdesveten . I followed the trail towards Førdesveten and started getting a bit worried about the amount of snow. I was not the first using the trail towards Førdesveten though, so this part was straightforward. However, upon reaching the crossroads with the sign for Randifjellet this would all change. Apparently, nobody else had thought it a good idea to go to Randifjellet after the recent snow fall, and the trail was therefore not visible at all! I decided to give it a go anyway. However it quickly became clear that this was perhaps a bigger challenge than I had thought, and I was soon struggling with snow up to my knees (and sometimes even higher). Of the trail there was no trace, >>>
