Sunday hike at Fløyen with the goal to identify a viewpoint we had come across in a picture included in the annual report from Bergens Skog- og Træplantningsselskap . After taking the bus to the city center I walked up to Fløyen via Fløysvingene where I met my parents. They had arrived via Fløibanen and together we continued to the lower part of "lysløypen" where it did not take long before we found the spot the picture had been taken. It provided an excellent view and could be reached in two ways, with the shorter option via a trail from the gravel road to the southeast being the easiest. We proceeded to descended via Skredderdalen to Mulen. Here I continued on my own to Munkebotn and then took the bus back to Lønborg.

For the second weekend in a row I took the train to Voss, but where I last Sunday continued on an almost empty bus towards Ulvik I today got on one out of a total of four buses packed with tourists heading to Gudvangen. That was not my plan though and I instead got off at the last stop before Stalheim. (Tip: ask the driver to let you off before the bus takes its detour to Stalheim, as apparently there is an extended stop there.) After getting off the bus I briefly walked south along the main road on a separate cycling and walking path, crossed the road and continued on the gravel road to Fyre where I located the marked trailhead next to the parking lot . A tractor road took me up to the start of the marked trail to Grindaflethytta . I however only stayed on this trail until Øvsthus, where I left the main trail and continued on a marked trail towards Stalheimsnipa . When getting to >>>

On a Sunday in mid-August where the warm summer weather made a comeback, I hopped on a train Voss and from there continued by bus to Ulsberg, where I for the second time had to help the bus driver locate the bus stop (see my hike to Kjerringafjellet and Kvasshovden ). After getting off the bus, I first followed the gravel road to Solsævatnet and then continued on the unmarked trail via Rubbelii to Nedre Skor. This was overall straightforward with the main challenge being to spot the trail between the numerous tall ferns doing their best to hide it. I think I made a wrong turn after crossing the stream west of Rubbelii though, descending to the lake instead of continuing upwards. I therefore shortly ended up on a much weaker trail before reconnecting with the main trail. (Note that there is also a trail going around the lake. So be sure >>>

Sunday hike in familiar terrain that I realized I had not visited in a long time. The weather ranged from warm sunshine to cold wind and rain. The latter probably explains why I only met one other hiker between Rundemanen Vest and Munkebotsvatnet. Lots of people up until that point though.

On an overall wet and windy Saturday I found a late afternoon longer opening between the rain showers and decided to make a visit of the old train station at Romslo. According to Wikipedia the station was in use until 1991 and had clearly seen better days.

Folgefonna to Jondal via Storafjellet and Grytingsfjellet

Distanse:

I started my journey by taking the bus to Norheimsund, the passenger ferry to Herand and finally a second bus via Jondal up to Folgefonna Skisenter . From the parking lot at the ski center I returned along the paved road down to Hestadalen p-plass . Here I continued on a trail marked with red T's towards Breidsete before shortly starting my off-trail ascent to Storafjellet . Or so I thought. Very quickly I however came across another trail marked with small cairns that led me all the way to the summit, hence it ought to be possible to stay on a trail all the way from the paved road. After a short break at the summit to take in the excellent views, I continued northwest to Grytingsfjellet . No trails or cairns marking the way here as far as I could tell. Lots of minor ups and downs and one or two steeper sections that had to be carefully navigated, but with one exception, >>>
