When writing the trip report after my visit of the trig marker at Bønes I came across a new candidate for the Alle topper i Bergen list, namely Barhaugen, a minor hill west of Bøneshallen. Given the steep drop to the west there was even the potential for some good views. I therefore once more took the bus to “Bønes senter” but this time headed north to explore Barhaugen.

The summit could be easily reached via a trail from the south, however the best views were obtained just southwest of the summit with a great overview of Sælevatnet with both Liatårnet/Pyttane and Lyderhorn prominently visible in the distance. Note that I did not manage to add it as a new peak (148 m, PF=29) (as it was too similar to existing peaks), but given the great views I therefore added it as a vantage point instead.

I returned the same way before concluding the hike by following various roads and separate walking paths to Oasen for the bus back to Lønborg.
