Hauggjelsvarden from Sædalen via Erdalsvarden

Dato:
14.02.2026
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:33t
Distanse:
11,8km

Saturday hike in fresh snow exploring a new route to Hauggjelsvarden via Erdalsvarden . The trailhead from Helldalslia was marked however the trail itself was not always easy to follow, largely due to the snow but also due to lots of fallen trees partially blocking the way. How closely I later followed the trail towards Erdalsvarden I'm not sure but I think I did pretty good. From Erdalsvarden I headed off-trail towards Valhal and then continued to Byfjellenes høyeste punkt and Hauggjelsvarden, before circling back to Turnerhytten and descending via a (for me) new route passing by Gimle . During the descent, I made a quick visit of Krossen where I was able to follow a trail almost to the highest point that also continued to the gravel road to the south. The hike was finally concluded with a light jog down the gravel road in order to return to Sædalen in time for the bus back >>>

Orrtua and Storerinden

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
1:38t
Distanse:
4,1km

I left work early for a short hike from Bontveit to Hausdalen to visit two minor peaks on the Alle topper i Bergen list . First up was Orrtua which to my surprise could be very easily ascended via a tractor road/trail (not shown on the map) that took me almost all the way to the summit. The highest point even had much better views than expected. Getting from Orrtua to Storerinden also provided fewer challenges than feared and I even came across an old trail shortly before arriving at the gravel road north of Storerinden. From there it was straightforward to reach the summit via various deer tracks. Limited views from the summit itself, but better views to the northeast just north of the highest point. The hike was completed by returning to the gravel road and heading southwest along the main road before getting on the bus.

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
7,4km

Short Saturday hike in light snow and rain exploring the area on the eastern side of Mathopsvågen. Overall a nice hike along decent trails with great views, although the off-trail ascent of Botnahaugen can be skipped without missing anything. Ørnahaugen was on the other hand a positive surprise.

Oppstemten and Landåseggen

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:11t
Distanse:
6,2km

Short hike after work to catch the sunset at Ulriken. Lots of ice that made snow chains mandatory, especially for the final section of Oppstemten and for most of the following descent along Landåseggen, which most likely explains the unusually low number of other hikers on this sunny afternoon.

Flaktveit to Selvik via Nukane

Dato:
01.02.2026
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:07t
Distanse:
6,3km

A return to Flaktveit to try an alternative route to Nukane followed by a (for me) new descent to Selvik. All in all a nice short hike along unmarked but still overall easy to follow trails. The only challenge being the occasional ice that could thankfully easily be avoided. See also my earlier hike to Storsåta .

Nipetjørna, Gravdalsfjellet and Olsokfjellet

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
7,0km

After an extended period of cold weather I decided to use the Saturday to visit the ruins of the cabin Dovre , located on a small island in Nipetjørna. Given that I would basically be passing by Endre 's apartment on way, I invited him to come along. As expected, there was a thick white ice covering the lake and we could therefore easily walk across to the island. Of the cabin there were only limited traces after it apparently burned down in 1977. With the main objective out of the way we continued via Gravdalsfjellet , Damsgårdsfjellet and Olsokfjellet before returning to Vestlundveien. Just as we were about to part ways, I noticed the small hill St. Hanshaugen which looked like it ought to be included on the Alle topper i Bergen list and at the summit we even found a small trig bolt. Takk for turen, Endre!
