Bjørgafjell from Bjørgekrysset

Dato:
15.09.2018
Turtype:
Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:14t
Distanse:
12,0km

Bjørgafjell Started by taking the early morning bus towards Ostereidet and getting off at the bus stop called Bjørgekrysset. From there I walked north along the road toward Vassel and Æse, before following the gravel road up to Bjørgo. I started out in nice weather, but shortly before leaving the paved road it began raining heavily and did not stop until I was almost at the gate indicating the unmarked trailhead for Bjørgafjell . From there on a rather wet tractor road could be followed almost all the way to the summit, changing into a trail toward the end. Shortly before reaching the summit, I came across the first red and blue trail marker. This marked trail continued north/northwest across the summit, but I did not have the time to investigate this option further. Just before arriving at the summit, >>>

Torrfjellet

Fjelltur
Turlengde:
2:32t
Distanse:
12,7km

Started by making my way up from Bryggen to the upper station of Fløibanen. Here the wind started picking up and the rain did not seem far off. Instead of the planned hike, I therefore decided to rather do a quick detour to a (for me) new small peak called Torrfjellet . There are several signs indicating trails to Torrfjellet, but surprisingly none of these actually went by the summit itself. First, I followed the marked trail from west of Torrfjellet, but soon ended up at Skomakerdiket instead. After walking north along Skomakerdiket I came across the second marked trail for Torrfjellet, but this one only led me back to the trail I had left minutes earlier. Concluding that the marked trails could not be trusted, I simply headed straight for the summit, which was less than 50 meters off at this point anyway.

Gravdalsfjellet from Nipedalen

Turlengde:
1:20t
Distanse:
3,5km

Short evening hike from the final bus stop in Nipedalen. Began with the steep trail, starting directly behind the bus stop, up to Nipetjernet. On a previous hike I had noticed an even steeper trail continuing from the northern tip of the lake heading in the direction of Gravdalsfjellet . The first stretch was even steeper than expected, requiring light climbing, and in hindsight, probably not the best trail after the recent rain shower that had occurred when I was on the bus. But thankfully the trail soon levelled off and, while still slippery, from there it was straightforward to reach the summit of Gravdalsfjellet. The trail did get a bit weak at the end though, but could also be that I made my own shortcut without realizing it. On my ascent I had heard thunder in the far distance, but as it was now slowly >>>

Austlendingen

Distanse:
8,3km

From the parking lot for Austlendingen we crossed the main road and easily located the unmarked trailhead for Austlendingen . The trail climbed steeply up to Stegafossen where it crossed the river just above the waterfall. Not a lot of water today though, so it was straightforward to cross without getting wet. The trail continued its steep climb upward, but also with several less steep section, until finally flattening out towards the summit. By now the wind had started to pick up, and combined with the limited views due the low-hanging clouds, we only had a quick bite before starting our descent along the same route. In summary, a nice hike that can be recommended, although it is probably much more enjoyable on days with better weather.

Raudskredvarden and Rispingen From the parking lot at Båtaleite we followed the marked trail towards Rispingen . The trail started out a bit wet, but soon greatly improved. At Raudskredvarden we enjoyed the excellent views towards Stanghelle, before continuing to Rispingen for a short lunch break. Raudskredbruna On the way back, we made a quick detour to Raudskredbruna , which provided nice views, but probably not essential for most hikers. No trails to Raudskredbruna as far as we could see, but the terrain was straightforward to traverse. Olsnesnipa and Olsnessåta After reconnecting with the trail, we followed it down towards the parking lot, until realizing that this was probably not necessary, and instead headed directly towards the trail to Olsnesnipa and Olsnessåta . In hindsight, we should probably have made this shortcut sooner. We lost the trail briefly on our way to Olsnesnipa, >>>

Byrkjefjellet Started by taking the bus to Kvamskogen and getting off at the bus stop Wallemtunet. From there I followed the gravel road northwest, looking for one of the many trailheads indicated on the map. As far as I could see there were no marked trails for Byrkjefjellet (or any other locations for that matter) and the ones I looked at were all equally wet. This did however greatly improve as the trail turned north. Here it also connected with another trail coming up from the south (which I decided to try on the descent). From here, the trail was overall easy to follow until reaching the small cairn southeast of the 996 hill south of the summit, which provided very nice views. The summit itself was however further north, and, as far as I could tell, blocked by a cliff. I knew there was supposed to be >>>

Hodnakletten and Myrsfjellet

13,0km

Hodnakletten After reading several trip reports talking about coming across a marked trail on their way to Hodnakletten , I decided to do some digging and found this suggested hike at ut.no: Hodnekletten frå byggefeltet på Myking , referring to a marked trail with wet areas that could be followed all the way to the western summit of Hodnakletten. So I decided to give it a try. Started by taking the bus to Myking, getting off at the last stop referred to as "Myking, butikken", and from there found my way to the trailhead indicated in the above trip suggestion. As detailed at ut.no, the trail started right to the west of the last house on the north side of the road, and I walked up the short gravel road next to the house hoping to there locate the start of a trail. But instead of an easy to follow tractor road (which is what was indicated >>>
