Bjørndalskamben and Sollifjellet

Dato:
09.07.2024
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:53t
Distanse:
18,3km

I was lucky to hitch a ride to Kvassdalen and was dropped off next to the unmarked trailhead for Bjørndalen . The first part of the ascent looked very steep but thanks to earlier trip reports, e.g. Arnt 's external trip report , I was pretty sure that it would be ok. As expected, the trail was steep but did not present any real challenges, although it may not be for everyone due to a couple of semi-exposed sections. After the initial steep ascent, the terrain levelled off and I followed a nice trail along the river to Bjørndalen for the first look at Bjørndalskamben . The trail continued south, I however made a detour for better views into Kvassdalen. Upon reconnecting with the trail I did not stay on it for long and instead followed various sheep tracks. There were occasional cairns but no trail as far as I could tell. Closer to the summit, >>>

Bergsdalen to Evanger via Hamlagrøhornet

Dato:
06.07.2024
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:24t
Distanse:
18,4km

I started by taking the train to Dale and from there the bus up to Bergsdalen where I got off at the start of the gravel road to Alexander Grieghytten . After a quick look at the cabin I continued on a marked trail north towards Evanger. At the top of the pass I however turned right, left the marked trail, and headed off-trail to the summit of Hamlagrøhornet . Here I visited all of the potential highest points (the one just south of the largest cairn seems to be the real summit) before continuing northeast via Såta to Løva . Løva stood out from the rest of the terrain but could still be easily ascended. The unusual rock formations making up the ridge seemed to be very good cairn building material, as there were at least four cairns at or near the summit. After a short lunch break, I descended the same way before heading north and >>>

Karaldenuten roundtrip from Rong

Dato:
30.06.2024
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:07t
Distanse:
12,5km

Sunday hike to Karaldenuten organized by Voss Utferdslag . I started by taking the train to Voss where I met up with the others for the short carpool to Rong. Here we parked next to the road south of Rongastovo just after the road forked for Haugamoen. This was also where we met up with the local guide and after a quick overview of the hike we began our ascent along the gravel road towards Grungavatnet. The gravel road turned into a wet trail before we arrived at the northern end of the lake for the first (and the only real) river crossing of the day. A rope had been put up to simplify the crossing and thus we all made it to the other side almost without getting wet. A steep but relatively short section followed before the terrain turned less steep. There was a marked trail all the way to the summit, although the markers, a combination >>>

Vollane

Fottur
Turlengde:
1:49t
Distanse:
7,4km

A short hike to explore Vollane in between the rain showers. The area was completely empty today but instead patrolled by a handful of seagulls doing their best to get me to leave. After the quick visit I followed various roads on my way home to Lønborg, including an ascent of Ørneberget NV .

Sveningen from Øvredalen to Midsætret

Dato:
26.06.2024
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
6:43t
Distanse:
15,8km

Ever since a dense fog hid all of the views during our previous visit of Sveningen , I had had plans of repeating the hike under better conditions. Today, seven years later, the day had finally arrived. Once more I managed to convince a couple of colleagues to join but unlike last time we arrived in two cars, allowing us to leave one car at Midsætret p-plass and thus enabling us to skip the rather boring almost 5 km walk back to Øvredalen parkering at the end of the hike. After parking the second car at Øvredalen parkering, we followed the standard route to the top of Sveningen. Here we had a short lunch break before heading south along the ridge towards Midsætret. Along the way I made short detours on my own to the summits of Drogegjeltoppen and Søtefjellet NV , plus an attempt to locate a trig marker at Sauskolten , of which I only found traces of the supporting metal structure. Upon returning to the car at Midsætret p-plass, we car-pooled >>>
