Initially I had other hiking plans for this Saturday, but when Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) asked if I wanted to join him on a hike in Norddalen at the end of Øvstedalen, an area that is pretty much unreachable by public transport, I of course quickly changed my plans. Endre picked me up at my place at 08:15 and after driving as far up Øvstedalen as possible, passing through two gates on a narrow gravel road, we found parking near the end of the road at Øykholmane and were ready to start hiking around 09:45. The road quickly turned into a wet trail that we followed via a couple of cabins. After crossing the river on a wooden bridge, and managing to avoid the grazing cows in the area, we left the cabins and trail behind and headed off-trail towards Kyrahjellen, which should provide us an easy ascent route to Norddalsfjellet (incorrectly >>>

Borgundnuten

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:32t
Distanse:
7,1km

The last day of my 2023 summer holiday was spent travelling to Borgundøya for an ascent of Borgundnuten . I started by taking the high-speed passenger ferry from Strandkaien in Bergen to Borgundøy. This included a transfer to a corresponding ferry at Leirvik and in total took about two hours. Upon arriving at Borgundøya I followed the paved road to the marked trailhead southeast of the summit and from there followed the marked trail all the way to the large summit cairn. Besides meeting maybe a dozen other hikers at the start of the hike (and one during the descent), I had the mountain all to myself and could fully enjoy the excellent panoramic views. Descended along the same route to the paved road (only adding a short detour to Storaskarnuten ), making sure to call the boat to let them know that I would like to be picked up on their way >>>

A return to Tjørndalen to visit a couple of minor not previously visited peaks and to see if there were any cloudberries to be found. The former went all according to plan, but the latter was not a big success as we found maybe ten berries in total. There were lots of blueberries though. On the way back to the car I also made a minor detour on my own to the summit of Nordnuken where I managed to find a route that was much better than expected.

Kurebu

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
0:44t
Distanse:
2,3km

I left my bike at the marked trailhead and simply followed the marked trail all the way to Kurebu . More up and down than perhaps I had expected but otherwise straightforward. Great views along the way. I considered returning along the alternative route to the east, but as it would be slightly longer, and I did not want to risk missing the boat at Rubbestadneset, I ended up just returning the same way.
