Gullfjelltoppen via Gulltjørna and Storegga

Dato:
18.10.2020
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
6:00t
Distanse:
13,8km

We looked forward to a cold but sunny autumn Sunday and thus planned a hike "with high expectations"! :-) While we had earlier hiked quite a bit "here and there" in the Gullfjellet area, we not yet had traversed Storegga (in the north of Gullfjelltoppen). Thus we had a plan! :-) To make this hike a nice round, we aimed to start at the saddle between Trengereiddalen and Gullbotn, then traverse (without a trail) to Gulltjørna, before then ascending Gråfjellet and from there Storegga. After that, our plan was to hike down the major trail between Gullfjelltoppen and Gullbotn. We left Bergen to the East, following E16 from Arna until the roundabout near Trengereid, where we turned right (in southern direction). We then drove up Trengereiddalen until we came to the saddle >>>

Short double-round in Milde

Dato:
17.10.2020
Turtype:
Spasertur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
4,7km

The weather forecast was not too good and also there were other things to do, so the decision was to do something near and quick. We drove south through Ytrebygda, crossing Flyplassvegen to continue further south, towards Milde, following road #573. Coming closer, one follows the signs to Arboretet i Milde. We parked near a Kindergarden along Mildevegen and started our walk in northeastern direction. Once in the green, we turned right and towards Nepegjerdhaugen, which is the highest "top" on the island. Then, we turned back into the forest and headed towards Arboretet. We then walked southwards along a nice trail on the western side of Arboretet. At Naustdalen, we turned right (and towards the school there). With a bit of left and right, we then ended up on Lysthushaugen >>>

Rundehaugen from Fjæreide

Dato:
27.09.2020
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:30t
Distanse:
9,7km

Since we expected the afternoon to be substantially cloudy, we decided to make a hike in the lowlands rather than up on some tops (and in the clouds). Since we had not yet explored this region in detail, we chose to start at Fjæreide (in the west of Knappskog on Sotra) and then aim for Rundehaugen (in the east of Skålvik). After driving along road 555 westwards to Sotra and then northwards (road 561), one comes to Knappskog. There, one can turn left (westwards, again) and follow a narrow road to Fjæreide, where there's ample space for parking next to the road (they may have had, or still have, plans to broaden this road, leaving quite a bit of not yet used space besides the road). At the southern-most point (in Fjæreide) the road crosses over a small valley in a large turn to the right. >>>

Krånipa, Raudnipa, and Hananipa (from Gullbotn)

Dato:
19.09.2020
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
7:30t
Distanse:
17,7km

After a quite rainy period, we looked forward to a weekend with some nice weather. After weighing several hiking ideas against each other, we settled on a slightly longer hike over three Nipa-mountains in the East of Gullbotn. Driving along E16 from Arna, we turned right and up towards Gullbotn near Trengereid. Once above the saddle, we left the road at Gullbotn and parked right there (quite a number of parking places there). According to our plan (Krånipa first), we first headed in northern direction to get around Øyjordsvatnet. Almost exactly where Teinelva enters Øyjordsvatnet, we used a convenient bridge for pedestrians to get over to the other, eastern side. There, we turned left, again, to head for a small valley that runs south-north in the west of Skåpet. While passing by >>>

Kongsfjellet via Kongskleivo

Dato:
23.07.2020
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
3,8km

Before returning from Austevoll, we decided to include Kongsfjellet near Bekkjarvik. Passing by Bekkarvik church, we headed toward the starting point of Kongskleivo, i.e., the newly layed stone path up to Kongsfjellet. After first rounding Taushaugen in its east and south, we started with stepping up the big stone steps, ascending to the "top" of Taushaugen before continuing to Kongsfjellet. At Kongsfjellet, we enjoyed some nice views in all directions (mostly across Bekkjarvik and southwards). We then walked a bit across the ridge of Kongsfjellet before hurrying down the stone steps, again, in order to secure a relaxed drive back to the ferry in Hufthammar. All in all, Kongskleivo is, yes, impressive due to the big stones, while then, also, kind of boring. The views from Kongsfjellet, >>>

Vinnesvatnet and Veten

Dato:
22.07.2020
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:00t
Distanse:
5,5km

We took the ferry from Krokeide to Hufthammar and continued southwards from there, following the road into the direction of Husavik (road 546). After passing Husavik, we approached Vinnes, making a spontaneous decision to visit Vinnesvatnet from there. We parked near Hoppensprett kindergarten and started walking along a gravel path that leads very nicely around Vinnesvatnet. On the western side of Vinnesvatnet, we also visited the little island in Vinnesvatnet, walking across a nice little hanging bridge. At the northern end of Vinnesvatnet, where the gravel path deviates a bit from the lake, we started following a trail leading to Veten. After first ascending significantly, we then had a pleasant walk over the heights in the southeast of Veten. Eventually, we came to Veten, enjoying >>>

Visiting Kavlane from Kallestad

Dato:
11.07.2020
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
5:00t
Distanse:
12,2km

Hoping for a bit of OK weather, we aimed at the islands in the west of Bergen. Road 555 brought us to Sotra, where we turned south. Passing by Fjell and continuing along road 555 into the direction of Hammarsland, we turned right after Dalseidet, taking road 203 towards Kallestad. There, we parked right next to Grendahuset, starting our hike from there, passing by a few of the houses of Kallestad before getting "out into the wild", west of Kallestad. While the first meters past the last house are still on a kind of gravel road, this quickly changes into a nicely marked trail (Nordsjøløypen), which passes by Stølstjørna (in its southwest), then turning westwards, again, leading through a minor valley to Kjereidet. There, Kørelen (in the south) empties into Kjereidosen (in >>>

Skåldalsfjellet from Bjørndalen

Dato:
04.07.2020
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
8,1km

We drove past Grimevatnet and Haukelandsvatnet into the direction of Osavatnet near Gullfjellet, but stopped next to Gullfjellsvegen where the road crosses a small saddle between Ramsdalshovden in the east and Vemånen in the west to continue along Skåldalselva from there. Leaving our car behind, we continued along this road walking, first around Ramsdalshovden on the right (south) and then around Hjelterinden on the left (north). At Søre Bjørndalen, we used a bridge which leads over Skåldalselva to a few houses on the north-side of the valley. Once on this other side, there, we continued first further along a simple road (passing by Nordre Bjørndalen), before starting our actual ascent to Skåldalsfjellet via Høgrusten. On Norgeskart, we had seen that -- while not on a trail -- it >>>

Kofta (and Gullfjellet) from Nordbø

Dato:
20.06.2020
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
6:00t
Distanse:
12,6km

For at least two years, already, we had (occasionally) considered this hike: Kofta from Nordbøbotnen. After a relaxing morning, and knowing that the days are (very) long at this time of the year, we decided to go and do it. We drove from Bergen (via E16 first, then across Gullbotn) and left road #7 right after Hisdalstunnelen (to the right), where it leads on into the direction of Osøyro. Driving down road #137 for only a short stretch, we came to Nordbø, where we turned right (again), now in northern direction. From there, we continued for just about 850m, or so, until we had passed the last house. There, before entering the forest, we parked next to the road. We first walked along the forest road (the same road that we had come in with the car further down) up to about 200mosl (only >>>
