Åsheimveten Started by taking the bus (and ferry) to Fotlandsvåg and locating the marked gravel road towards Åsheimveten just south of the football field. An information sign indicated two possible starting options: either follow the gravel road or take the steeper trail. I went for the trail, which reconnected with the gravel road just before reaching Fotlandssætra , where the gravel road also came to an end. The separate start of the trail was clearly marked and the trail was of good quality and easy to follow. Shortly after leaving Fotlandssætra the trail got significantly steeper, especially the last stretch up to where the trail split for Åsheimveten or Tveitafjellet . But from there on it was easy to reach the summit of Åsheimveten, which provided spectacular views in all directions. Tveitafjellet Next, I returned to the >>>

Svekanen Started by taking the bus to Furuberg and, with the help of previous PB-reports, easily located the road towards Svekanen . I did however miss the trailhead, even though it was marked, and ended up following the road a bit too far. On my return I easily located the trailhead, which had been slightly hidden by a tree. The trail itself was also marked, but at times the markers were more easily spotted than the trail itself. This improved just before the trail entered the dense forest, which is also where the best views, predominantly to the east, could be obtained. From there on there were pretty much no views at all. And while the trail markers were still there, it was not always clear where the trail continued. The summit area did contain a visitor register, but it was very well hidden, and I >>>

Given that Elsås, and thus Elsåsfjellet , is rather difficult to get to via public transport, I decided to try to starting from Skardet/Skare instead, where the buses are more frequent. And it started easy enough walking southeast along a nice gravel road. Within not too long I however arrived at a closed gate with a rather massive cow staring at me from the other side. After double checking that I was in fact looking at a cow and not a bull (as I could initially only spot one of them), I opened and passed through the gate, ensuring that it was safely closed behind me. I then noticed up to ten additional cows, but none of them seemed to mind me as I continued up the gravel road. Just before reaching the end of the gravel road I came across another cow, this one all on its own at the side of the road. Again, >>>

Cycling: Kalandsvatnet

Too hot for extended hikes in Bergen at the moment, so I decided on cycling instead and completed a trip I had been thinking about for some time: cycling around Kalandsvatnet. Overall, a very nice trip that can be highly recommended with most of the cycling being on separate walking and/or cycling trails.
