Started by taking the bus to Dolvik terminal and walking east along what appeared to be the easiest route to Feråsen.

Getting to the summit itself turned out to be more difficult than expected though, as it is more or less inside a private backyard. This made the visit a rather unpleasant experience and I would generally recommend staying away from this one.

I continued east towards the next goal of the day: Sørås. And while this mainly involved a lot of walking along the main road, the summit itself was a positive surprise. But that could just be due to the recent bad experience at Feråsen.

The hike was concluded by walking down to Lagunen for Bybanen back to the city center.

To conclude, an ok walk covering two peaks that most people would not visit if it wasn't for the fact that they are on the Bergen ≥ 50m pf. og ≥ 100 m.o.h. list, especially Feråsen.
