Distance:

For the third summer in a row (see the first two trips here and here ) I returned to Bømlo and once more brought the bike with me on the high-speed passenger ferry from Bergen to Rubbestadneset. Here I started the GPS tracking and cycled south towards Børøya. At the top of the last hill before descending to Nautsundet I followed a short dead-end gravel road to an unmarked trailhead referred to as Falkastigen. Here I left the bike behind and continued on foot to Børøysåta and Børøyklampen . See the separate report here . After returning to the bike, I cycled the short distance north and then southwest to the marked trailhead for Lyklingfjellet . I could probably have cycled further on the tractor road, but as it quickly got rather muddy, I again left the bike and continued on foot to the summit. See the separate report here . I still had plenty >>>

Short cycling trip along Barsnesfjorden. (Note that the road this hike follows is private, i.e. no cars allowed.

Cycling at Austevoll

Characteristic:
Bike trip - road
Duration:
5:15h
Distance:
53.2km

A return to Austevoll to visit Adlesi . Once again I took the high-speed passenger ferry from Strandkaien, but this time bringing my bike and getting off at Hufthammar. From there I cycled south to the western trailhead for Loddo . I stayed on separate cycling/walking paths until leaving road 546 at the roundabout south of Storebø. After that I had to share the road with slightly more traffic than I had hoped for. I left the bike behind at the final fork in the trail up to Loddo and continued on foot to the summit . Back at the bike, I benefitted from having cycled up to around 100 meters above sea level and thus quickly descended to the main road. With the main goal of the day out of the way, I decided to explore more of Austevoll and headed northwest to Storakalsøy and Kalve, enjoying excellent views along the way. No cycling/walking paths after crossing >>>
