Short evening hike with two colleagues, among them yehiamokhtarfarag (Yehia Mokhtar Farag) , where we followed the standard route from the large new parking lot southeast of the summit. My third visit of Eldsfjellet , but the first to the new "dagsturhytte" called Eldsbu . Windy at the summit and not as much sun as we had hoped but otherwise a very nice short hike.

A return to Stord to complete the Stord ≥ 100m pf. list . I started by taking the express bus from Bergen to Stord and getting off at the stop called "Grov nord E39". From there I followed a marked route southwest, choosing the northern of the two options when the road forked just after the trailhead. This included first crossing a small wooden bridge and then continuing on a nice tractor road that later turned into a trail before again returning to a tractor road, and finally ending up at the paved road heading north. After a short walk along the paved road, I took a shortcut up Omabrekko to arrive at the floodlit ski track south of Lundarstøl . I continued northwest for a quick visit of Lundarstøl, before heading west along the roads to the marked trailhead for Steingilshøgda . For the rest of the hike I would now be on trails >>>

My first hike in Sveio! I started by taking the express bus from Bergen and got off at the first stop after the long undersea tunnel from Stord via Føyno. This location was named Ulveråker on the map, while the bus stop was called "Ulveraker nord". In any case, I headed north along a smaller side road not expecting much traffic, especially as there was no side walk except for at the very start. However, during my short walk to the marked trailhead I was passed by what had to be upwards of a hundred motorcycles. I later learned that they have a large gathering in this area on May 1st every year. After passing close by the house of composer Fartein Valen , I arrived at the marked trailhead west of Valesåta and follow the, at the start, relatively steep trail east. Before turning towards Trollevassnibba , I made a short >>>

Distanse:
7,3km

After visiting Veten and Sandvikehorga and Bygdaåsen , we still had around two hours until the planned ferry back to Gjermundshamn, which should be more than enough for me to also make a quick visit to Øyefjellet/Varden . Given that petter (Petter Bjørstad) had already visited Øyefjellet more than 15 years ago, he simply dropped me off at the trailhead at Øvsthus. The marked trail was easy to follow and I initially made good progress towards the summit. Soon I would however get to areas that were first wet and muddy and later also covered by increasing amounts of snow, at times even making it difficult to spot the trail markers. This of course greatly reduced my speed and I constantly had to keep an eye on my watch in order to make sure that I had enough time to both get to the summit and back down again in time for the ferry. In the end, I finally reached the summit >>>

After our hike to Veten and Sandvikehorga , petter (Petter Bjørstad) and I drove the short distance to Glebakka where we were the only car at the large parking lot . There was a hiking information sign next to the parking lot, but it only indicated a trip to Barlinda, which is apparently the largest tree of its kind in Northern Europe . We however ignored this suggested route and instead headed off-trail along the ridge to Bygdaåsen in the opposite direction. The terrain was easier to traverse than expected and there were lots of deer tracks showing the way. In order to avoid two surprisingly deep gorges north of the summit, we ended up following the ridge west of the summit before turning southeast for the final ascent. Limited views due to lots of trees and while the summit can be reached without any real issues it is clearly more of an acquired taste and not the kind of peak most hikers will feel much need to >>>
