Yet another meeting ending at Solstrand, meant, as usual, yet another hike in Fusa. Today's goal being Bergsfjellet , including an attempt at making the hike into something close to a roundtrip by following this hike suggestion by Fusa kommune: https://ut.no/turforslag/1110763/bergsfjellet , albeit in the reverse order. I started by taking the bus (and ferry) to the bus stop “Dorganeset”, and from there followed the gravel road along Lammanesheiane, quickly coming across a sign with information about the same roundtrip hike (but with one important detail that I will come back to later). The gravel road later turned into a tractor road, getting rougher the higher up I got. After around 3 km (at about 300 meters above sea level) the tractor road (or rather the tractor tracks, as there was little to no actual road left at this point) split. The road >>>

On the way back to Bergen from our hike to Blåfjellet and Storevarden from Olsbotnen me and Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) made a quick visit to the rather oddly named Storfjellet , reaching the summit only 15 minutes after leaving the car, first along an old tractor road and then off-trail in wet but easy terrain. Limited views from the summit, except for nice views towards Stussfjellet . It may however be possible to obtain better views across Romarheimsfjorden if continuing south beyond the summit, but we did not have the time to explore this possibility today, and instead quickly returned to the car, following more or less the same route as for the ascent.

My first hike together with Endre started with us driving to Olsbotnen where we, after parking on a small parking lot/side road, were welcomed by a sign stating that "the marked trail to Stussdalen has been shut down" (Norwegian: nedlagt). I remembered seeing a similar sign in Stussdalen for the trail going in the opposite direction. But given that the trail did not say that the trail was closed, we assumed it just meant that the markings were no longer maintained, and decided to still give it a go. After crossing the small river on an old concrete bridge, we quickly lost the trail and had to make our own way for a couple hundred meters before suddenly reconnecting with the trail. And while the trail may no longer be marked with red paint, there were still plenty of small cairns to follow >>>

A return to Stussdalen, but this time on my own and without a car, thus the hike started from the bus stop at Gamlesæter and with a walk up Stussdalen. Just before the road turns north towards the parking lot at Øvre Sætravatnet I crossed the small river and headed south, coming across some deer tracks, but mainly having to find my own way. I took the advice from knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen) 's trip report and waited a bit before finally turning southwest towards the summit of Gråsida . My ascent was therefore straightforward and did not present any challenges. I still conferred with my GPS several times though, as even after leaving the trees behind the exact direction for the summit was not obvious, given the several options to choose from. When getting closer, the summit was however clearly marked by a large cairn and the thus easy to spot. From the cairn I moved west, >>>

Another meeting ending at Solstrand, another hike beginning in Fusa. This time the goal was Rødsfjellet , or Røafjellet as it is called on the local signs. I first took the bus (and ferry) from the main road above Solstrand to Rødo (note that the bus stop is called Rød and not Rødo). Upon leaving the bus I had roughly three hours until the final bus back to Bergen. After first walking along the smaller roads to Ytrerødo, thankfully easily avoiding the main road, I located the marked trailhead (there was even one or two signs earlier on as well) which also included an information sign about the hike. I first passed through two gates before shortly leaving the tractor road for a shortcut through the forest, all clearly marked with red paint, and then reconnecting with the tractor road, until it came to >>>

We drove from Bergen to the parking lot south of Øvre Sætravatnet, of course paying the toll of 40 kr in Stussdalen. The weather was perfect at the start of our hike, providing excellent views across the two Sætravatnet lakes. But sadly the sun soon disappeared and stayed behind the clouds for the rest of the hike. As we passed along Tverrvatnet the fog also started hiding the peaks of the surrounding mountains. The start of the hike was poorly marked, with no signs at all from the parking lot as far as we could see. However, this changed upon reaching the eastern end of Tverrvatnet, and from there on a marked trail could easily be followed all the way to Kalvedalshytta . Paddesætret also provided a nice bridge, thus simplifying the crossing of the river. I did leave the trail for a short detour to Råsefjellet , which turned out to be more complicated >>>

Stangelifjellet - descending via Sofusstien

Distanse:
11,9km

Took the bus to Ervik and followed Selvikveien until the trailhead for Setervatnet. My initial plan had been to walk around the dam and return the same way, but when ascending to Øst for Stangelifjellet I came across a trail I had not noticed before which apparently would take me down to Vinddalen. Upon reaching the summit of Øst for Stangelifjellet I therefore returned to the trail marked as Sofusstien, which turned out to be a trail marked with red paint, and although it was clear that the red paint was far from fresh, the trail itself was easy to follow. Halfway down the trail there was also a visitor register with an explanation for the name of the trail. When the trail connected with the road I continued south to Stallane , before following the road on the south side of Jordalsvatnet on the way back to the main road.
