Torefjell from Steinsdalsfossen via Raudnos

Dato:

Distanse:
15,6km

Most, if not all, of the previous visits of Torefjell seemed to have started from Sjusete. Getting to Sjusete without a car would however require a rather boring walk along the roads up from Norheimsund. When looking for other options, I came across this suggested hike from Steinsdalsfossen to Raudnos , which also indicated that it was possible to get to Raudnos via trails from the northeast. This would only leave the short distance from the gravel road south of Alkleiv up to Forsete and I would be on the standard trail to Torefjell. The map did not indicate any trail there, but I was pretty confident that one would turn up. With the plan decided upon, I took the bus to Øvsthus and got off at the stop named after the popular waterfall of Steinsdalsfossen . Similar to my visit of Steinsdalsfossen at the start of April , the famous walk behind the waterfall was closed due to ice, and I instead followed the paved road up towards >>>

My plans to go hiking at Voss had to be changed when massive amounts of rainfall resulted in one of the largest floods in that area in modern history. In order to avoid any issues with blocked roads or cancelled trains, I therefore decided to instead head south for two new summits in Sveio. First up was Tveitalifjellet . After getting off the bus from Bergen at Haukås terminal, I walked the short distance back along the sidewalk before taking the gravel road up to Tveita. When the road ended just east of the summit, I passed through a gate and tried to follow the red plastic trail markers, but after one marker at the gate and a second when entering between the trees, I did not spot more until the terrain levelled off after the first short steep ascent. From there on there were several additional markers, but >>>

Sightseeing at Fløyen

Fottur
Turlengde:
0:49t
Distanse:
2,5km

Short sightseeing trip with a colleague visiting from the UK. Bergen did not show itself from its best side, but at least there were some views from the top of Fløibanen and it did not rain too badly during our walk around Skomakerdiket. Note: Created by hand after the hike as I did not bother turning on the GPS during the hike itself.

Distanse:
5,0km

Initial plans to spend the Sunday hiking at Voss had to be abandoned when I for once did not manage to generate the required activation energy to get up and out the door before sunrise, mainly due to suboptimal weather forecasts and overall very wet terrain. As a replacement I went for a shorter hike later in the day at Korsneset to visit yet more minor summits on the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Kjeneset and Såta . Two summits I had been saving for just such a gray and rainy day. After arriving by bus, I pretty much followed in the footsteps of either Kjell51 (Kjell Øijorden) or knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) , where the only real challenge was finding a route up the short step ascent south of the summit of Kjeneset. In the end I found a location where only a little bit of light scrambling was needed. No such issues to reach Såta, but instead there were plenty of wet and >>>

Skorseteggi and Kolingseggi from Oppheimsvatnet to Kløve

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:10t
Distanse:
19,0km

I started by taking the train to Voss with the plan to continue on the bus to Framnes at the western end of Oppheimsvatnet. Due to signaling problems in the tunnel between Bergen and Arna the train ended up arriving 15 minutes late at Voss, but thankfully I still managed to catch the bus heading for Gudvangen. In fact, there were two buses as apparently the tourist season was not quite over. After getting off the bus at Framnes, I walked back along the main road for about 200 meters (on a broad sidewalk) to cross the bridge to the south side of Oppheimsvatnet where I continued south along Langedalsvegen (the second exit to the right) until locating the marked trailhead for Lemme. The first 100 meters or so consisted of a new tractor road where the earth/mud had not quite set yet, but then changed >>>
