Sjøbua

Dato:

Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
0:47t
Distanse:
2,2km

After the short walk around Kvassnesstemma , we drove north to Radøy for a visit of Sjøbua . From the parking lot to the cabin there is only around 700 meters and, especially for the latter half, there is excellent views along the way. Excellent views from the cabin as well, although today a strong northerly wind cut our stay short. I did however do a quick detour on my own to the peninsula of Byngjo, before we all returned to the parking lot.

When having to wait roughly half an hour at Knarvik, we decided to spend the time trying out the gravel road around Kvassnesstemma . This turned out to be a very nice short walk with great views along the way. Highly recommended if in the area and not having enough time for a proper hike.

Storås and Klauv from Våge

Dato:
30.04.2023
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
5:10t
Distanse:
22,1km

I have to admit that peak bagging via public transportation has its added challenges, especially when the distance to the trailhead from the nearest bus stop is almost 9.5 km. But in the case of Storås in Sveio , that distance could thankfully be easily covered by following a side road with limited traffic. The trip started by taking the express bus from Bergen to Sveio and getting off at the stop with the interesting name "Søre Våge sør". I immediately left the main road heading south to Haugesund, and instead turned east on a smaller single-lane road. Soon I even left Sveio, entering Haugesund and Rogaland, and would not reenter Sveio until almost an hour later. On my way I also passed by the trailhead for the highest summit in Haugesund called Klauv , which I planned to ascend on my way back (if time permitted).

Gråfjellet from Lussand

Dato:
18.04.2023
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
4:25t
Distanse:
9,3km

After spending two days at a conference at Voss, most of my colleagues returned to Bergen shortly after the late lunch. I however decided to take advantage of the excellent weather and instead return to Bergen via a detour including an ascent of Gråfjellet in Granvin . When talking about my plans during the breaks at the conference I had managed to spike the interest of one of my colleagues, and after changing into our hiking gear we hopped on the bus to Lussand and were ready to start our hike shortly after 15:00. We started by walking southeast along the old main road south of Bjørgatunnelen before following the winding Fossdalsvegen, a steep private gravel road, up to the river coming down from Veslevatnet. Here we left the road behind, which towards the end had been covered by snow, and continued off-trail towards >>>

Bordalsgjelet from Voss train station

Dato:

Turtype:
Fottur
Turlengde:
1:20t
Distanse:
5,6km

When spending two days at a conference at Voss, I took advantage of an extended break before the evening's dinner for a visit of Bordalsgjelet . The route to Bordalsgjelet is marked with signs all the way from Tintrabrui , however I somehow missed the first sign and ended up with an alternative route via Gjernesvegen. More or less the same distance, but more traffic and no sidewalk until the road turns north, hence I would recommend using my return route in both directions. Before crossing the bridge across Bordalselvi, I followed a sign to a viewpoint northwest of the bridge that provided a nice view across what I guess one can call the end of Bordalsgjelet. I then continued to the parking lot and from there followed the trail into Bordalsgjelet. Note that while this trail has safety railing, it is still closed during the winter, >>>
