Dyngelandsåsen from Midtunlia

Dato:
15.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:33t
Distanse:
5,3km

Started by taking the bus to Midtun and walking up to Midtunlia for the start of the hike. The start of the trail was not marked as far as I could see, but easy to locate in between Midtunlia 25C and 27A. The trail itself was a very positive surprise (see pictures) and made it straightforward to reach the summit of Dyngelandsåsen . The summit itself had limited views, although several familiar mountains could be spotted in between the trees. I therefore quickly continued towards the lookout point called Tårnnebben , once again along nice trails that were easy to follow. Tårnnebben provided much better views, mainly towards the west, and was definitely worth a visit. I continued south along the trail, which quickly turned west, taking me down to Ulsmåvegen and finally back to the starting point of the hike. The plan >>>

Dolvik terminal to Lagunen: Feråsen and Sørås

Dato:
14.05.2017
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
1:26t
Distanse:
7,1km

Started by taking the bus to Dolvik terminal and walking east along what appeared to be the easiest route to Feråsen . Getting to the summit itself turned out to be more difficult than expected though, as it is more or less inside a private backyard. This made the visit a rather unpleasant experience and I would generally recommend staying away from this one. I continued east towards the next goal of the day: Sørås . And while this mainly involved a lot of walking along the main road, the summit itself was a positive surprise. But that could just be due to the recent bad experience at Feråsen. The hike was concluded by walking down to Lagunen for Bybanen back to the city center. To conclude, an ok walk covering two peaks that most people would not visit if it wasn't for the fact that they are on the Bergen ≥ 50m pf. og ≥ 100 m.o.h. list, >>>

Totlandsfjellet, Livarden and Slettegga

Dato:
13.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:58t
Distanse:
17,3km

Started by taking the bus to Øvre Totland. Or so I thought. Turned out I had left the bus one stop too early. But after only a couple of hundred meters walking up along Totlandsvegen I reached my planned starting point for the hike. I continued to the parking lot at Øvre Totland and from there followed an unmarked, but easy to follow trail, along the ridge of Totlandsfjellet , that took me all the way to the summit. Nice views from the summit, but the light rain and the low-hanging clouds did not help of course. From the summit of Totlandsfjellet I continued towards Livarden , but while the trail was still easy to follow it got significantly wetter and a lot muddier. However, I quickly reached the summit of Livarden and after a short break for some pictures (the rain had started to increase in intensity), I followed >>>

Stendafjellet and Skeisåsen from Lagunen

Dato:
07.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:47t
Distanse:
9,8km

Started by taking Bybanen to Lagunen and walking southeast to Øvre Krohnåsen, following the road and later gravel road towards the summit of Stendafjellet . When getting close to the summit I started looking for trails to the west and found one that took me to a trig marker north of the summit (see picture). I then followed the same trail south, assuming it would take me to the summit. However, I thought I would pass by both summits of Stendafjellet, and therefore left the trail to hunt for the northern summit. This turned out to be in the middle of a quite dense forest with no views and, in my opinion, not really worth a visit. I therefore quickly moved on to the southern summit, which was a lot nicer and had much better views, particularly southwest across Fanafjorden. From the summit of Stendafjellet >>>

Raudlifjellet from Tømmernes

Dato:
06.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:53t
Distanse:
8,0km

Started by taking the bus to Tømmernes, crossing the main road and then the Tømmernes bridge. Next, I located the start of the trail indicated on the map and followed what turned out to be a tractor road that quickly turned into an unmarked trail taking me to Sælafjellet . Here there were very nice views towards the south. I continued north along the trail to Nordhordlandskulten and then onwards to Raudlifjellet , along the ridge of the mountain through a nice pine forest. The trail had some wet sections, even after a week of no rain, which resulted in the trail disappearing at times. Nordhordlandskulten had limited views, while Raudlifjellet had nice views, mainly in the westerly direction. From the top of Raudlifjellet I turned south and followed more or less the same route back to the main road. Twenty minutes to the next bus, so I >>>

Distanse:

Short evening hike starting from Fretheim Hotel in Flåm, walking up Brekkevegen and then following the marked trail up to Brekkefossen. Then back down to Brekkevegen, before continuing further up the valley to Flåm Skole where I crossed the river and turned back towards Fretheim Hotel, now walking along Flåmsdalsvegen.

Solbakkefjellet from Kalandseidet

Dato:
01.05.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:04t
Distanse:
16,5km

Started by taking the bus to Kalandseidet and walking up Hausdalsvegen, but quickly took a shortcut north that was indicated on the map. The shortcut started ok, but quickly turned worse and is probably not recommended in wet conditions. It soon connected with a gravel road though, and perhaps it would have been simpler to rather follow the gravel road until the start of the trail towards Solbakkefjellet . The start of the marked trail was easy to locate and I followed this trail all the way to the summit. In the beginning I felt a bit stupid though, as the trail and gravel road followed each other pretty closely at times (see picture). However, the two thankfully parted ways after not too long, and from there on the trail continued along the ridge of the mountain in a beautiful pine forest. The trail itself >>>

Eldsfjellet, Eldsfjellveten and Storanipa

Dato:
30.04.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:30t
Distanse:
7,1km

Started from the small parking lot at Skjelangervegen and followed the marked trail to the summit of Eldsfjellet . Then onwards to Eldsfjellveten , before taking the same route back to Eldsfjellet. Here we decided to also visit Storanipa . Could not find any trails so we ended up walking around Kvitstigtjørna and from there found our own way to the summit without too much trouble. The hike was completed by reconnecting with the trail back down to Skjelangervegen. Overall, a very nice hike with excellent views in all directions!

Øvsttuntoppen from Skjoldskiftet

Dato:
29.04.2017
Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
1:30t
Distanse:
6,7km

Started by taking Bybanen (i.e. the Bergen tram line) to Skjoldskiftet and walking east to Øvsttunvegen before heading up the newly renovated stairs to Klokkarlia, which I then followed all the way to Øvsttuntoppen . Much better views than expected from the summit, especially towards the east. From the summit I took the same route back to Øvsttunvegen, but with a minor detour through Klokkarskogen. Next, I continued towards Nesttun and then along Nesttunvatnet and Hopsvatnet before ending up at Paradis for Bybanen back to the city center. All in all, a trip that was much better than expected, with the theme of the day clearly being animals, as can be seen from the pictures below. :)

Lyderhorn from Sildaberget

Dato:
27.04.2017
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:50t
Distanse:
7,0km

Started by taking the bus to Bjørndalsbakken and from there walking up to Sildaberget. After locating the start of the trail (just follow the upper road at Sildaberget and look for the hiking sign for Lyderhorn), we followed the stairs (and later trail) to Skarpafjellet , and from there continued onwards to Lyderhorn . From Lyderhorn we followed the trail north, passing over Skjenafjellet and Ørnafjellet , before following a very muddy trail down to Gravdal, where we just missed the bus. We therefore ended the hike by walking back towards Lyngbø and Rv. 555 for the bus back to the city center.
