Distanse:

A return to Gulen to complete the ascent of Svabergfjellet that I had to abandon due to running out of time during my hike three weeks earlier . Once more I took the express boat from Bergen and followed the gravel path towards Eivindvik but this time skipping the visit of Gulakvila and Kvitebergnova and instead heading directly to Undertun and the marked trailhead for the hike around Undertundalen. After a quick stop at Flogefjellet , I continued east towards Svabergfjellet via Flolifjellet on a rather weak and (at best) inconsistently marked trail. But at least the otherwise potentially challenging descent into Floliskardet was clearly marked and the overall direction, except for the descent to Floliskardet, was pretty obvious. Due to a strong and cold wind at the summit, I did not stay long at Svabergfjellet but quickly continued towards Heia and Ormekletten , still on a rather weak and inconsistently >>>

Nordbykollen from Drammen stasjon

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:03t
Distanse:
9,8km

When having to arrive the day before to attend a two-day conference in Oslo, I decided to leave Bergen early such that I could also get the chance to include a short hike. After flying to Gardermoen I continued by train to Drammen from where I set aim for Nordbykollen just as it stopped raining and the sun started to appear. I quickly came across signs for Nordbykollen which I could more or less follow all the way to the summit. I did however make a couple of minor detours on the way, including an ascent of Svenskeåsen and a lunch break at Speiderhytta , before heading to the large lookout tower at the top of Nordbykollen. I descended via an alternative route and then returned the same way to the train station. Overall, a nice short hike with excellent views from the summit thanks to the tower.

Oppstemten and Hellerane

Distanse:

Short hike before heading home from work. For the descent I explored a new route via Hellerane . Weak and steepish at the top but otherwise ok. Probably works even better as an ascent route though and should most likely be avoided in the winter when there is snow and ice. Nice viewpoint at Hellerane.

Gulakvila, Kvitebergnova and Flogefjellet from Sollibotn

Turlengde:
8:53t
Distanse:
25,4km

After travelling 1.5 hours north on the express boat from Bergen, I got off a Sollibotn and continued on foot towards Gulakvila . I only had to walk less than 100 meters along the paved road before switching to a gravel path that took me up to the marked trailhead and a marked trail that could easily be followed via Løypingsåsen to the cabin. My next goal was Kvitebergnova . In advance I had considered two options: (i) descend to Eivindvik and ascend from Midttun (where I, thanks to Lise Grønbukt 's trip report , had learnt about a marked trail) or (ii) head northwest and ascend via Høgefjellet . When arriving at the unnamed 123 lake just northeast of Gulakvila, I however came across a sign for Kvitbergnova that pointed east. Hoping that this would save me an unnecessary detour, I decided to give it a go, even though this trail was not indicated on the >>>

3:05t
Distanse:

On a nice but windy Saturday I stayed away from the higher peaks and instead tried a new route from Breistein to Ytre Arna before heading via Sjurstonipa and Spåkefjellet on my way to Gaupås. Overall, a nice hike along good trails and great views. Can be recommended.

Ragdebu

Distanse:
4,3km

Upon completing my trip to Middagsnuten and Nonsnut , I still had plenty of time before the next bus to Bergen. I therefore took a local bus from Skarsmoen to Odda for a visit of Ragdebu . The first sign for Ragdebu was not spotted until the end of Ragdelia but from there on there was multiple signs and arrows along a nice trail to the cabin. I had the location all to myself and could enjoy the great views during a very late lunch break. To extended the hike, and further reduce the waiting time for the bus, I returned to the bus station via Freimsvegen. Slightly longer but resulted in a nice roundtrip.

Distanse:
7,2km

After a long bus ride from Bergen to Odda, I got off at Smørtjørnsmoen from where I could follow a side road up through Middagsnuten Hyttefelt. I then continued on a snow-covered trail to a small building with a large antenna near the summit of Middagsnuten . Before heading to the real summit around 60 meters south of the antenna, I also made a quick visit of the trig marker to the northeast. Excellent views from all locations. Next, I turned my attention towards Nonsnut and immediately started wondering why this peaks looked much bigger than expected. It was only supposed to be around 30 meters higher and only 700 meters away from my current location but it looked both much higher and much further away. In any case, I first had to descend to the cabins in the valley between the two peaks. Except for initial >>>
