Kyststien Strandvegen

Dato:

Spasertur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
3,7km

After last year's successful hike to Moldaneset as part of a two-day conference at Solstrand , I was again asked to organize a short walk when we now returned a year later. Given that the break before dinner was slightly shorter this time around we headed southwest from the hotel to cover the rest of Kyststien Strandvegen . To make the walk into a roundtrip, we first followed the main road towards Osøyro before returning along the gravel road to the hotel, including a small detour to Haugsneset. Overall, a nice short walk that can be recommended if at Solstrand and having some spare time.

After last weekend's successful skiing trip to Øykjafonn and Skipanuten I decided to have another go, but this time on my own and starting from Mjølfjell. I again took the early morning train from Bergen and arrived at Mjølfjell train station just before nine. From the station I followed the gravel road north into Rjonaddalen, where I carried the skis for the first 2 km, before putting them on a continuing beside the road where there was just enough snow left. I soon left the road for a shortcut to reconnect with the road up to Grodjuvet. This road normally continues all the way to the bridge across Grodjyvo , but today the road was soon hidden underneath the snow. By then it was too late to cross the partially open river and I instead continued north until I could safely cross via the mentioned bridge and start the ascent to Grodjuvenuten . After passing on the northern side of Skyttargluggane, all that remained >>>

Due to a late worsening of the weather forecast, I postponed my initial hiking plans in Fusa and instead opted for a more local hike. In the end, the rain did not begin until after I had arrived home anyway and I am pretty sure I could have completed most of the planned hike without getting too wet.

When petter (Petter Bjørstad) asked if I wanted to go hiking or skiing this weekend I of course said yes, and we settled on a skiing trip to Øykjafonn and Skipanuten . After taking an early train from Bergen we arrived at Upsete stasjon shortly after nine, and after finding a way to safely get to the other side of the train tracks we started the 750 vertical meters ascent to Øykjafonn. After crossing the river coming down from Gangsdalsvatnet via a snow bridge we pretty much followed the ridge south all the way to the summit. Still plenty of snow, although there were also times when we had to navigate around areas where the snow had already disappeared. Excellent panoramic views from the large summit cairn. Next, we removed the climbing skins and continued south towards Skipanuten. The descent to the small lake between the two summits was overall straightforward >>>

After leaving my bike behind at the trailhead for the roundtrip of Frøkjedalsvatnet, I followed the marked trail north along the lake before heading off-trail for the final 500 meters to the summit of Vardafjellet . The terrain was overall easy to traverse, but there were also areas with lots of moss-covered rocks with small gaps between them such that one had to tread carefully. Closer to the summit the terrain turned steeper and there were more trees and bushes to navigate around, but overall the summit was reached without any real issues. Two large old cairns at the Vardafjellet summit, however the actual summit is most likely the area around the tree just behind the largest cairn. The views from the summit where somewhat obscured by trees, but just a couple of meters to the south there were excellent views towards the south. From the summit >>>
