Svabergfjellet from Sollibotn

A return to Gulen to complete the ascent of Svabergfjellet that I had to abandon due to running out of time during my hike three weeks earlier. Once more I took the express boat from Bergen and followed the gravel path towards Eivindvik but this time skipping the visit of Gulakvila and Kvitebergnova and instead heading directly to Undertun and the marked trailhead for the hike around Undertundalen.

After a quick stop at Flogefjellet, I continued east towards Svabergfjellet via Flolifjellet on a rather weak and (at best) inconsistently marked trail. But at least the otherwise potentially challenging descent into Floliskardet was clearly marked and the overall direction, except for the descent to Floliskardet, was pretty obvious.

Due to a strong and cold wind at the summit, I did not stay long at Svabergfjellet but quickly continued towards Heia and Ormekletten, still on a rather weak and inconsistently marked trail. I did however also make an on-purpose detour from the trail for a better look at the green-colored Nordgulfjorden and Svaberghavet.

From the cairn west of the summit of Ormekletten, the consistency of the trail markers finally improved and from there on it was much easier to follow the trail back to the starting point. Instead of returning along the tractor road to Undertun, I tried the marked trail via Ospehaugen, which provided much better views and is probably the recommend route for both directions.

After a short walk along the culture trail in Eivindvik, all that remained was the walk along the main road back to Sollibotn, where I, largely due to the wind making it unpleasant to take longer breaks along the way, arrived with more than 1.5 hours to spare.

To conclude, an excellent hike with spectacular views that can be highly recommended, although the trail, both with regards to quality and markers, could have been better, hence this is maybe not a hike for those preferring marked trails.
