Given the excellent Friday weather forecast, and other engagements during the upcoming weekend, I decided to take the Friday off and go hiking in Ulvik. Once more I took the train to Voss (once again with bus-for-train between Bergen and Arna). Here I switched (back) to bus and headed for Ulvik, getting off at Sølva (just two stops after where I began my hike to Kjerringafjellet and Kvasshovden the previous weekend). The bus stop was right next to the start of the tractor road that I could pretty much follow all the way to the summit of Kongsberg . I only left the tractor road towards the very end to instead continue on an unmarked trail to a vantage point just south of the summit with spectacular views across Ulvik. From there a weaker trail could be followed to the highest point less than 150 meters further north. Ascending Kongsberg >>>

After several days of strong wind from the east, the weather finally improved enough to allow for proper mountain hiking. I therefore got up early Sunday morning and took the train to Voss (or to be more correct, bus-for-train to Arna and then train to Voss). Here I switched back to bus and continued in the direction of Ulvik. My plan was partially follow in the footsteps of Knut Sverre and Astrid based on their trip report from 2015 indicating a trail to Kvasshovden via Grostøl, mainly as this would save me almost 300 vertical meters compared to starting from the fjord at Ulvik. In advance I had figured out that the closest bus stop to the wanted trailhead was called Ulsberg, which would leave less than 600 meters to the start of a tractor road I had located on the map. This was apparently not a very commonly used bus stop though. Proven by the >>>

Rundemanen from Starefossen

Dato:
15.10.2023
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:28t
Distanse:
15,2km

A wet and windy Sunday hike from Starefossen to Lønborg via Rundemanen with the main objective of visiting a small unnamed hill east of Store Tindevatnet that had been added as its own PB-element a while ago. The small hill was right next to the trail and could thus easily be reached but did not provide any unique views or other distinguishing features.
