I had initially given up on trying to find Fjeldborg at Landåsfjellet due to very limited information regarding its location. But after reading knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen)'s recent trip report where he mentioned the characteristic rocks behind the cabin that are prominent in both pictures in Bergensernes Fjellverden II (BF II) (also included in Knut Sverre's report), I decided to give it a go anyway.

Old aerial photographs did not provide any clues this time around, i.e. I had to depend on visiting potential locations and hope for the best. It has been suggested that Fjeldborg was most likely located close to Fjelly and Stulihaugen. I still decided to expand my search and thus started looking for possible locations already when approaching Orrehaugane.

When getting closer to Stulihaugen, I shortly thought I had found what I was looking for just north of the small hill (see second picture). But this small stone wall was clearly not large enough for a cabin, and the surrounding area did not match the pictures either.

After a quick visit to the summit of Stulihaugen, I searched the area west of it, making it almost to Berlehytten before turning back. On my return, I yet again thought I had finally found the ruin of Fjeldborg when a significantly larger ruin was spotted just southwest of Lyngtun. However, while this was clearly the ruin of a cabin, the location did not at all fit the pictures in BF II.

Next, I descended to the gravel road, passing by Norheim, and later Fjelly, before making a short off-trail ascent to Kronhaugen. Sadly no traces of Fjeldborg there either. I did come across the ruins of a much smaller building though (picture 9, 32V 300721 6696731), but also here the location did not match the pictures in BF II. I continued to Landåsfjellet via a detour south of the summit to inspect some promising areas, but still no luck.

Upon reaching Landåsfjellet I decided to stop the search (at least for today), and rather headed for Storhaugen, a small hill I had not yet summited. After a quick bite out of the wind south of the summit, I ended the hike by walking to Haukeland sykehus from where I took the bus home. In summary, no traces of Fjeldborg nor the characteristic rocks so far. But at least I ruled out a couple of possible locations. To be continued...

Update: It later turned out that I had visited the location of Fjeldborg without realizing it. See knutsverre (Knut S. Andersen)'s report from May 12th 2021.

      Hehe. Noe må man jo gjøre på når nye ordentlige topper er utenfor rekkevidde for tiden. Det er for øvrig bare å bidra i letingen... ;)

    Interessant lesing, Harald! Du fant nå mye nytt, men Fjeldborg mysteriet består. Foreløpig er det vel fjellknausen bak Lyngtun som ligner mest av det vi har kommet over, men heller ikke den passer vel helt. Skal bli spennende å se om noen finner stedet! God Påske!

      En del nytt, men ingen treff enda nei. Spørsmålet blir hvor mye som har endret seg på nesten 100 år. Blir jo betraktelig vanskeligere dersom knausen nå er overgrodd med mose og ikke til å kjenne igjen. Redningen blir kanskje at det ser ut til å være et relativt stort flatt område der hvor Fjeldborg var plassert. Og disse er det jo ikke så veldig mange av i nærheten av Fjelly (om vi skal stole på at disse lå i nærheten av hverandre).

      Jeg så selvsagt nærmere på knausen ved Lyngtun og må si meg enig i at den ikke ligner nok på bildene av Fjeldborg fra BF II. Så tror neppe det er her Fjeldborg var plassert.

      God påske!
