Håøytoppen

Started by talking the bus to Flatøy and walking along the main road (on a nice wide sidewalk) to a parking lot next to E39 where I found the hiking signs to Håøytoppen. I then followed a varied and easy to follow trail to the southern end of Håøyna, where the trail turned into a gravel road that lead me all the way to the summit of Håøytoppen.

I spent some time at the top exploring the different views before taking (more or less) the same route back to the starting point of the hike. There I figured out that I had to wait quite a while for the bus, so I decided to rather extend the hike by also crossing Nordhordlandsbroen and take the bus from there.
