Ingebjørgfjellet from Tveitavegen

Dato:
05.03.2023
Turtype:
Fjellskitur
Turlengde:
5:46t
Distanse:
15,7km

Sunday skiing trip to Ingebjørgfjellet organized by the Norwegian Trekking Association , or more specifically Voss Utferdslag . The initial plan had also included Oksen , but given difficult conditions in the valley between the two summits, and the overall length of such a combined trip, the plan had in advance been reduced to just Ingebjørgfjellet. After getting up at 05:30 in the morning, I was on the train from Bergen to Voss at 07:07. At Voss I met up with the others around 09:00 and we all car-pooled to the start of the trip at the crossroads of Tveitavegen and Stokkselvegen above Granvin. In the summer it is possible to pay a toll and drive up to Stokksel, but today this was not really an option as this road was, at least at the start, very icy. We therefore put on the climbing skins by the cars and proceeded to carry the skis over the first icy stretch before >>>

Distanse:
8,6km

Given the near perfect weather, I took one day of "vinterferie" to go skiing. I convinced my dad to join and together we drove to Modalen and Øvre Helland. Here we left the paved road and continued along a good-quality gravel road up to Steinavatnet p-plass . After a very short climb of only a couple of meters, and less than 150 meters of skiing, we arrived at the ice-covered Steinavatnet, which provided very easy access to Olav Nygards bu . We then turned west and headed for the ridge to Nåmdalsfjellet . Lots of traces of earlier skiers, however there did not seem to be a fixed summit route. The direction was in any case obvious and there were no steep areas to avoid. It therefore did not take long before we arrived at the summit where we could enjoy the views to the surrounding mountains. After spending the whole trip in the warm >>>

Five summits west of Vinningsleitet

Dato:
25.02.2023
Turtype:
Fjellskitur
Turlengde:
9:28t
Distanse:
24,3km

When Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) suggested a skiing trip to the five summits east of Vinningsleitet, I of course quickly said yes. (Bonus tip: see this external trip report for a similar skiing trip.) He picked me up early Saturday morning for the drive to Vinningsleitet. We arrived at the small parking lot around 10:00 and were ready to start skiing shortly after. First up was Nonhaugen , which was easily accessed by ascending directly from the parking lot, except for a short descent into the valley between Nonhaugen and Ørnahaugen , and it did not take long before we were standing at the summit. Throughout the trip there would be a strong and cold wind from north/northeast. It was however mainly coming at us from the side and overall did not present much of an issue. The snow conditions were on the other hand more heavily affected, thus the condition varied greatly, from packed >>>

Lilandshaugen

Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
0:39t
Distanse:
2,6km

My initial plan for the Saturday afternoon had been to travel to Eikelandsosen for a visit of Vetlavardhytto , but due to the recently "improved" bus connection between Bergen and Gjermundshamn (where the earlier direct bus line had been replaced by a three (or thirty-three) minutes transfer at Osøyro), I ended up missing the bus from Osøyro to Eikelandsosen by less than two minutes and quickly had to come up with a plan B. Two minutes later I was therefore on the first bus back to Lagunen. Here I switched to the tram to Flesland and after this long detour I was finally ready for the short walk to the top of Lilandshaugen . Interestingly, Lilandshaugen has to be the Bergen summit with the largest sign, i.e. the infamous "BERGEN?" sign welcoming visitors as they exit the main terminal at Flesland. >>>
