Saueskardegga and Skorvane

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:07t
Distanse:
6,2km

Upon completing the hike to Høgerinden , we drove south to Kringletevatnet and found parking next to the road. First up was Saueskardegga , where we came across an animal track that led us up to the ridge, which could then easily be followed the rest of the way to the summit, making this the shortest and easiest ascent of the day. After returning to the car, we started the ascent to Skorvane . First by following a weak animal track into the valley between the 720.1 and 783.8 hills and then ascending off-trail up to the top of the 783.8 hill. Here we were surprised by the large drop between us and Skorvane. I blame it on the wet conditions making it difficult to interact with the digital map. We had no choice but to detour north to not lose too many vertical meters. From there on it was straightforward to reach the summit, however the wet >>>

After the ascent of Blåfjellet and Blyfjellet , we drove the short distance to the end of the gravel along Stølsvatnet. Here we parked next to the dam and followed a marked trail north of the dam where there was a bridge across the currently almost dry riverbed. As soon as we crossed the bridge we lost the trail and did not find it again until spotting a small red gate just east of the dam. From there on there was a marked but quite weak trail that could be followed almost to summit, with only the final less than 300 meters being without a trail. After a couple of pictures of views that are probably much better under different conditions, we returned the same way, although this time taking a shortcut across the dam and skipping the detour via the bridge, which is probably the recommended route when the water level of Stølsvatnet >>>

Given the poor weather forecast, I initially did not have any hiking plans for the weekend, but when Petter called and asked if I wanted to go hiking I of course could not resist. We settled on Stordalen as a suitable target area where there were lots of seemingly easy summits that neither of us had visited. After the nearly two-hour drive from Bergen, we parked next to the road at Nystølen and were ready to start hiking shortly before ten. Our first target was Blåfjellet where the map indicated a trail to the summit. The actual trail however did not match the map! We therefore stupidly ignored the start of a marked trail, partly to avoid crossing a small stream, and instead continued along the road to the location indicated on the map. This resulted in a rather wet off-trail start to the ascent before later >>>

Distanse:

A short stop on the way home from Sogndal to Bergen in order to ascend Høgalii . I was dropped off outside Målsethytta and continued west/northwest along the gravel road, crossed the dam, and followed a weak but marked trail all the way to the highest point where there was a small cairn and even a visitor register. I returned the same way and after a minor detour to avoid some cows blocking the road and refusing to move, I was picked up just east of the dam. All in all, a nice short trip, perfect for those wanting a break when driving across Vikafjellet.

Nord for Torstadnakken from Anestølen

Distanse:
11,7km

To get to the parking lot at Anestølen one has to pay a 70 kr toll fee . This however removes the need for an extra 3 km walk each way along a gravel road and thus gets you to the real hike faster. From the parking lot I followed a largely unmarked trail, with some occasional small cairns, up Tverrdalen to Tverrdalsvotni. The trail was overall easy to see but also had its weaker sections. At the lake I had planned to cross the river via a bridge , but as the bridge was laying next to the river and not across it, I instead had to find another way to the other side. This was however straightforward and after shortly following an animal track, I made my own way up towards Nord for Torstadnakken . Except for a short steepish section south of the unnamed small lake west of the summit, where a bit of route-finding including some easy scrambling was required, the ascent did >>>
