Distanse:
2,0km

Time for another Saturday of hiking with Endre ( Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) ), this time to four small peaks in the Stamnes area. First up: Sverrestuven . We parked at Sverrestuven P-lomme øst and made our own way towards the summit. No trails as far as we could tell, but some deer tracks. At first very steep, even requiring some light climbing for the first 100 meters from the road, but from there on reaching the summit was straightforward. Surprisingly good views from the summit. Most notably down towards Gammersviki and the mountains to the east. But decent views both south and north could be obtained close to the highest point as well. From the summit we followed more or less the same route back down to the car, but I made a small detour at the end to see if there was anything left of the building indicated on the map. I did not find anything, but did >>>

Distanse:
7,3km

The goal was to make it up Stoltzen in less than 16 minutes, which I just missed (16:11). I blame it on the snow/ice covering the last part of the ascent. But at least I was around 20 seconds faster than last time. On my way home I came across an interesting two-story building southwest of Ørneberget NV .

Teiglandsnuten Started by taking the bus to Haljem and then the ferry to Våge. Upon arriving at Våge I followed the roads to Ve, where I easily located the marked trailhead for Teiglandsnuten . Turned out that I could just as well have followed the road to Lande directly, but there was not much of a difference between the two options anyway. The gravel road soon turned into a marked trail. However at some point I seem to have left the trail indicated on the information sign at the start of the hike, as I ended up approaching the summit of Teiglandsnuten from the south, not from the north as shown on the sign. I did follow a trail though, so this option can also be recommended. Excellent views from the summit, which also included a visitor register. Vestrefjellet My plan was now to follow the ridge south to >>>

Bergstadfjellet from Evanger

Distanse:
16,0km

Started by taking the train to Evanger and walking along Teigdalsvegen to Forvene. The road was covered by ice soon after passing Fadnes, but by walking close to the edge of the road, and paying close attention, snow chains were not needed. Upon reaching the short tractor road at Forvene, I left the main road and started searching for a trailhead. Did not find any, so I simply started up the steep ridge, assuming I would come across it later on. A trail/deer track was shortly discovered. I would put it more in the latter category though, but it did make it easier to progress up the surprisingly steep ascent. The ridge was covered by trees, but these could easily be avoided. Thus there was nothing of the bush war I had mentally prepared for. At around 200 meters the trail turned much less steep, >>>

Left work earlier than usual to take advantage of the nice weather for a quick visit to Soria Moria in order to recomplete the Hytter og objekter i Byfjellene list. The snow chains came on shortly after turning south at the start of Oppstemten , and greatly simplified an otherwise much more challenging hike.

Roundtrip at Fløyen and Rundemanen to visit some of the newly added elements on the Hytter og objekter i Byfjellene list. Rather icy conditions from Brushytten up to Rundemanen, so I followed Blåmansveien on the descent which was much better. Also lots of ice from Brushytten to Grindarasten and down to the smaller dam below Storavatnet.

Andershovden After exiting the train at Voss, I walked along the roads to Tvilde where I easily located the marked trailhead. By following the signs for Storeåsen, first along a gravel road and later a long various trail, the progress was straightforward and with some excellent views towards Lønahorgi along the way (which would turn out to be a familiar element throughout the rest of the hike). Storeåsen itself was not marked, and I did not bother locating the summit. North of Storeåsen, where the trail connected with a gravel road, there was another information sign, from which I followed the trail towards Gudleikstreet, taking me through the Håmyrane nature reserve. (As it turned out, I could also simply have followed the gravel road north for a couple hundred meters and reconnected with the same >>>

On what would turn out to be a perfect late October day for hiking, me and Endre ( Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) ) drove early from Bergen to Fitjadalen, were we started our ascent from the parking lot just after nine, following the marked trail. At about 600 meters we came across the first real snow, and from there on the amount continued to increase the further up we got. There were some partially hidden footprints in the snow, most likely from the day before, but we were the first hikers this morning, and thus had to make our own path (following the red T’s) up the mountainside. The progress was therefore slower than expected, as we kept sinking deeper and deeper into the snow. At the cabin southwest of Skrott we left the main trail to Breidablik and instead followed the cairns towards the summit. Here there were no footprints at all, >>>

Høgehaugen

Distanse:
4,3km

To complete our tour of small peaks along Samnanger-/Eikelandsfjorden, me and Endre ( Fjellsamleren (Endre Myrdal Olsen) ) had saved the worst for last: Høgehaugen . At least that seemed to be the verdict after reading reports from previous visits. We started from the standard location, i.e. the small parking lot next to Sævellavatnet on the border of Fusa and Samnanger. But where everybody else had seemed to stay north of Botnavatnet, we instead headed south, hoping that this would provide an easier route to the elusive trail west of the lake. After walking 100 meters south along the main road, we continued west and later south/southwest on a forest road, taking us east of Botnavatnet. When the forest road forked, or at least a smaller weaker forest road headed southwest, we briefly followed in the footsteps of a running deer, and then >>>
