Eineråsen

Dato:
04.11.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:09t
Distanse:
3,6km

With strong winds and possible rain showers, I decided to avoid the higher peaks and instead headed for Hisdal and Eineråsen . After getting off the bus in Hisdalen, I walked south along the road for about 200 meters until locating the small gravel road heading east. The satellite images on Google Maps had indicated that this road ended just after the bridge, but to my surprise there was now a fairly new gravel road for another 300 meters. I followed the new road until it ended, all the time looking for trails toward Eineråsen. Did not find any, and instead started my ascent along what looked like a deer track. Relatively steep at first, but the main challenge was the many fallen trees. But by switching between different deer tracks, I still made rapid progress up the hillside. Closer to the summit, >>>

Sandvikshytten via Brennhaugen

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:45t
Distanse:
9,6km

Local hike checking out a trail splitting off from the new trail I had recently discovered on the eastern side of Munkebotsvatnet . I was hoping for an alternative route to Ankerhytten or Sandvikshytten . But instead the trail quickly split again and turned into weak deer tracks. With a bit of light climbing I still managed to make my way to Sandvikshytten via Brennhaugen, but not a route I can recommend or am likely to repeat.

Stanghelle to Dale via Storafjellet and Hestafjellet

Dato:
28.10.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
7:24t
Distanse:
17,4km

Started by taking the train to Stanghelle and from there easily locating the marked trailhead at Åslia. The trail, which even included a couple of staircases, was easy to follow and we soon arrived at Stutto and the first good views towards Storafjellet . Stutto had its own visitor register and also provided a good view towards Hikletten . We continued along the marked trail in the direction of Kalddalen and Kalddalselva, but as we got close to the river we lost the trail and instead had to make our own way until reconnecting with the trail shortly after crossing the river. From there on it was straightforward to follow the trail all the way to Storafjellet. The views from Storafjellet were spectacular and clearly worth a visit! After a quick visit to the smaller cairn at the highest point, we returned to the crossroads >>>

Lone to Lønborg

Dato:
20.10.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:33t
Distanse:
20,8km

Started by taking the train and bus to Lone and from there walking up to Haugo where I spotted the first signs for Ulriken . Leaving the houses behind I then followed the gravel road south until locating the marked trailhead. The trail was of better quality than expected, with only a couple of wet areas. Shortly after passing by Haukelandsvarden , the trail forked and I chose the option heading to Hauggjelsvarden . After a quick detour to the highest point at Byfjellene , I returned to Hauggjelsvarden and from there followed the weak trail northwest. This trail disappeared before connecting with the main trail across Vidden, but it is not very difficult to locate the main trail anyway, at least not when the visibility is good. At this point it started raining lightly and the wind also picked up a bit, but luckily the wind was coming from behind until I turned west >>>
