Vossamarsjen 2022 + Hjortahorgi and Skjemmehorgi

Dato:

Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:

Vossamarsjen is a yearly hike organized by the Norwegian Trekking Association , or more specifically Voss Utferdslag , starting from Hodnaberg and following the T-marked trail via Torfinnsheim , Timaglaset , Gråsidetoppen and Roset , before ending up at Gjelle. After last year's success of combining Vossamarsjen with visits of Skorane, Nansenbu and Torfinnshorgi , I decided to have another go, but this time making an even longer detour and instead including a visit of Hjortahorgi . After getting up very early on the Saturday morning, I took the train to Voss, where I almost missed the last organized bus to Hodnaberg due to the train leaving twenty minutes late from Bergen. The bus arrived at Hodnaberg just after half past nine and I was finally ready to start hiking. I started by following the standard route via the three first check points at Torfinnsheim, Dalsgrovi and Timaglaset, but instead of continuing northeast to the fourth checkpoint at Gråsidetoppen, I turned south along the marked trail to Nansenbu.

Bjørndalshesten and Storebrekkuna from Voladammen to Afdal

Distanse:

This Sunday I joined a hike organized by the Norwegian Trekking Association , more specifically Voss Utferdslag , from Voladammen to Afdal. Or rather I mainly joined the bus transportation at the start and end of the hike, as I had in advance gotten the OK to head off on my own in order to visit a couple of new summits in the area. After getting up very early in the morning, I therefore took the train to Voss where I joined up with the rest of hikers just before 09:00. The drive up the winding gravel road from Brekkhus to Voladammen was described as an attraction in itself by Voss Utferdslag, which was even more true when done in a large bus with lots of narrow turns and two small tunnels that had to be traversed before reaching the parking lot next to the dam . Here I left the rest of the group and continued northwest on my own looking for the trail to Kvitanosi . At first I struggled >>>

Daurmålsegga from Oma via Raudkleiv

Dato:

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
3:42t
Distanse:
13,2km

After two unsuccessful attempts at joining a DNT -organized hike across Daurmålsegga from Bolstad to Mundheimsdalen, once cancelled due to bad weather and once COVID restrictions got in the way, I decided to not wait any longer and go ahead on my own. Following the whole ridge would however not be possible and I would instead simply start from Oma and return the same way. I started by taking the bus to Oma and following the road up to the trailhead at Halvgjenge p-plass , from where I followed the standard marked route via Raudkleiv to the summit of Daurmålsegga. Tractor road almost all the way to Raudkleiv and an easy to follow trail from there all the way to the top, with only a small bit of easy scrambling to reach the summit cairn. As got to the summit a dense fog had appeared and thus there were next to no views. I decided to wait >>>

Midtnakken, Gjesfjellet and Snøya

Dato:
01.08.2022
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
8:10t
Distanse:
19,6km

I started by taking the bus to Eidslandet and walking up to the marked trailhead for Eidsstølen that I had used for my earlier hike to Toppfjellet . While the trail quality had not improved since my last visit, the trail was simply now hidden under tall grasses and ferns instead of snow, and it was still not always straightforward to locate the next red marker, the marked trail did make it relatively straightforward to get to Eidsstølen. It does however involve first ascending to the plateau south of Eidsnova before later descending down to the cabin. From Eidsstølen I turned west and headed off-trail to the extended north-south ridge of Salsfjellet. Ascending to the ridge was overall straightforward, although there may be more direct routes, and I quickly passed over Nordrenakken on my way to the highest point of the ridge at Midtnakken . >>>

After visiting Storhaug and Nesheimsnipa , me and Petter drove the short distance to Yksendalen for our final short hike of the day. We parked at a gravel-covered area next to the road before getting up to the houses in Yksendalen and from there followed the road towards the houses in search of the newly marked trail that GeirL (Geir Lie) mentioned in his trip report from almost ten years ago . We could not find any traces of this trail though and were left making our own way largely following the outskirts of a field. Shortly after leaving the field, we did however spot the first red trail markers and soon we were on a marked trail that could be followed all the way to the summit. The summit provided much better views than expected, and after a couple of pictures we returned along the same way, once again failing to find the start/end of the trail mentioned by Geir. Maybe >>>

Nesheimsnipa from Bergo

Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:

Distanse:
7,8km

After our visit of Storhaug , me and Petter drove the short distance to Bergo, where I had come across information that there was supposed to be a marked trail that would take us all the way to the top of Nesheimsnipa , or Blånipa as it is also referred to. This trail is also being used as part of an uphill race called Gygrakjeften Opp . Finally, I noticed that Vaksdal turlag was organizing a hike to Nesheimsnipa using the same trail a couple of weeks later. Hence the trail could not be all that bad. We therefore parked at a small parking lot next to Eksingsdalen skule opposite a football field. From there we walked less than 200 meters west along the road to the unmarked trailhead (or rather on closer inspection there was one partly hidden blue trail marker, but no sign). Here we started up the short tractor road, followed the outskirts of the field north and passed through a gate where the marked trail began. The trail was >>>
