On yet another day of excellent warm summer weather, I decided to take the day off and carry out the second of my ambitious cycling/hiking trips to Tysnes. This time avoiding the initial 40 km bike ride to Halhjem by instead taking the express ferry from the Bergen city center to Malkenes, as this would allow me to spend more time hiking. Upon arriving at Malkenes, I followed the now partially familiar roads to Skaret p-plass , where I left the bike behind for an excellent hike to Hovlandsnuten and Etlådnefjellet . See the separate trip report here: Hovlandsnuten and Etlådnefjellet . When coming back down to Skaret, I did not waste any time and quickly continued south to Onarheim, basically all downhill and flat, and with some spectacular views along the way. At Onarheim I took a break for an ice cream and a soda, before continuing to Espevik and a visit of Barmehovda . See the >>>

Cycling trip to visit a couple more cabins from Bergensernes Fjellverden II (BF II). Started by cycling to Kalandseidet and then following the scenic road up Hauglandsdalen. After the steep climb up to Bontveit, I could follow a gravel road all the way to Domus Medica and Hjelpekorpshytten . Both have most likely seen better days, and the nice views indicated in BF II are now completely hidden by trees. Note that Hjelpekorpshytten can be rented. Back at the main road, I left it almost immediately to start on another gravel road that would take me all the way to Riple. I soon passed by Tollhaug and, with a minor detour, Fjellro . Cabins that are also mentioned in BF II, but not added to the BF II list as they are now privately owned. The same goes for Vinterlund , which I passed on the way to Domus Medica and Hjelpekorpshytten. Next, I made a quick >>>

Ever since exhausting the hiking options from Våge as a starting point for my hikes at Tysnes, I had played with the idea of arriving at Våge by bike, thus opening up new possibilities. The only problem was that this would involve first having cycled the 40 km to the ferry at Halhjem, and just as important, having to cycle the 40 km back home from Halhjem at the end of the trip. But after my recent test run to Halhjem , I concluded that, while it would definitely be a long trip, it should be possible. Having done the test run turned out to be very useful given that my start from Lønborg was slightly delayed, resulting in arriving at Halhjem just as the ferry was docking, and with less than ten minutes until departure. Upon arriving at Våge I headed east to Lundegren and then south to Vevatne, enjoying the much >>>

Trial run to check the feasibility of cycling to Halhjem instead of taking the bus, with the goal being to use the bike to reach new peaks when hiking at Tysnes. At Halhjem I was almost tempted by the ferry to Våge arriving just as I was starting my journey home, but there was realistically no time for going to Tysnes today. And in the end the trip home was tough enough on its own. Overall, a very nice bike ride with excellent views along the way, and where almost all of the time was spent on walking/cycling paths or on roads with very limited traffic.

When summer made a surprise return in late September, I decided to have a go at my ambitious plan of using the bike as my transportation for a visit to Hikletten on Osterøy. I therefore got up early Sunday morning and began the long bike ride towards Botnen just as the sun was starting to rise. Thankfully a relatively cold morning soon turned significantly warmer, and even though my legs were still tired from yesterday's hike, progress was initially good. Bruvik was reached without any difficulties and it was now time for the main challenge of the day, i.e. the long climb up to Båtaleitet . By now my legs had started to complain slightly, I therefore mixed in short stretches of walking next to the bike for a bit of variation. But the first lunch break halfway up the climb was still very welcome and also provided >>>
