Ever since my visit of Storås at the end of April, the plans had been ready for a return to Sveio to ascend the four remaining summits on the Sveio ≥ 100m pf. list . Other hikes had however gotten the priority since then but now it was finally time. I started by taking the express bus (and ferry) from Bergen to Sveio where I got off at the stop called Liavegen. From there I followed the smaller roads east towards the first goal of the day: Hovdafjellet . Very limited traffic, which was important given the lack of sidewalks, and great views along the way made this first transportation stage more enjoyable than expected. Upon approaching Hovdafjellet I followed the road until the final house west of the summit. Here I passed through a gate and followed various animal tracks to reach the summit without any issues (except for a barking dog that thankfully >>>

Datum:

Turtyp:
Fjällvandring
Tidsåtgång:
2:30t
Avstånd:
6,9km

I left work early to take advantage of the great weather for a revisit of Førdesveten , mainly due to the recently opened dagsturhytte right next to the summit. After taking the bus from the city center, and switching buses at Skogskiftet terminal, I got off at Kleppe from where I followed a nice trail northwest. There was a sign at the trailhead but the trail itself was unmarked, except for the occasional small cairn later on, however the trail was easy to follow and I soon arrived at Kleppaksla . At Kleppaksla there was a visitor register just south of the highest point and excellent views in all directions. From Kleppaksla I continued northeast along the trail until reaching the crossroads south of Førdesveten where I decided to make a short detour to Storevarden before returning and completing the final climb to the summit.

Raundalsryggen from Reimegrend to Øyeflaten

Datum:
02.09.2023
Turtyp:
Fjällvandring
Tidsåtgång:
10:14t
Avstånd:
30,4km

Started by taking the train to Reimegrend and after safely crossing to the south side of the railroad tracks I followed the river east, first off-trail and then on a little used path that included a small wooden bridge. Just after the bridge I turned south towards the river along a trail which I thought would bring me to the bridge across Raundalselvi . This trail however pretty much came to an end at a small island northwest of the bridge and I had to find my own way to the bridge from there. Thankfully, the water level in the river was not very high and I managed to leave the island and get to the bridge without getting wet. After crossing the bridge I followed a trail southeast to Vetlaheggstølen and Mysedalen. While walking along the river was nice, the trail was clearly not very frequently used and disappeared several times. From Vetlaheggstølen >>>

Dyrdalsrunden

Datum:
30.08.2023
Turtyp:
Fjällvandring
Tidsåtgång:
6:30t
Avstånd:
14,3km

Left work early for a hike with two colleagues following the so-called Dyrdalsrunden, i.e. a hike following the ridges around Dyrdalsvatnet . Excellent views along the way but the trails were overall not of the best quality and rather muddy. On the way back to the car I made a small detour on my own to Bontveit søyle . This included a steep ascent from the east with lots of fallen trees to crawl over/under as a I got close to the trig marker and an equally steep descent south along the ridge. So while the main hike can be highly recommended, a visit of Bontveit søyle is clearly more of an acquired taste.

A return to Modalen with Petter to visit the final two peaks he had not yet visited in Nordhordland. Petter picked me up at my place at 06:30 and after around 1.5 hours of driving we parked at the small parking lot in Heimdal and were soon ready to begin our hike up Norddalen. In Norddalen there is a trail marked with red T's, however both the trail and the trail markers were often difficult to spot and we ended up losing the trail a couple of times. But given that the main direction was pretty obvious, i.e. head up the valley, this was not a big problem. The wet surfaces and the many slippery rocks however provided more of a challenge and meant that we had to proceed with care. Note that trying to follow the markers is still very much recommended as there were several maze-like passages in between large boulders where the markers >>>
